The Year of the Snake invites us all to embrace the unfamiliar, one beautiful curve at a time.
Serpentine tables have been quite the hit this season. As a refined twist on banquet dining, these fluid tablescapes blend artistry and sociability fabulously.
TRANSFORM THE TABLE (LITERALLY)
2025 is not only the Year of the Wood Snake according to the Chinese zodiac, it’s also the season of the serpentine tablescape. We love everything the snake represents–a potent, metamorphic moment, quietly molting old constraints while reimagining future forms, all while embodying an intuitive flow in a gracefully sleek visual.
This stunning aesthetic brings a calm and modern elegance to any reception. Unique and visually striking, this wavy form is actually great for conversation. Each curve brings guests closer into conversation, creating a relaxed but chic atmosphere. We love the versatility of styling these tablescapes so much that we had to share our favorite takes on this trend du jour.
FOLLOW YOUR INTUITION
We love how these wedding planners interpreted this transformative aesthetic by making it their own.
