Planning a wedding or special event is an investment, and you want your design choices to remain elegant and timeless for years to come. The key is striking the perfect balance—incorporating trends that enhance your event without making it feel fleeting.

From breathtaking tablescapes to stunning tented venues, here’s a look at the 2025 event design trends that will define celebrations in the Berkshires while maintaining a sense of classic beauty.

Tablescapes That Set the Tone

Tablescapes are one of the most impactful design elements of any event, setting the mood and enhancing the overall guest experience. In 2025, we’re seeing color palettes inspired by nature, culture, and timeless elegance.

1. Enchanted Elegance: Pinks & Greens

Inspired by the lush landscapes of the Berkshires and the whimsical world of Wicked, this tablescape blends deep emerald and mossy greens with soft pinks and gold accents. Think velvet table runners, blush-toned glassware, and gold flatware for a look that is both romantic and refined. A centerpiece of trailing ivy and delicate pink florals completes this dreamy, sophisticated setting.

2. Nautical Blues: A New England Classic

Coastal-inspired events never go out of style—especially in weddings inspired by the charm of destinations like Cape Cod, Newport, and the North Shore. This tablescape features creams and sky-blue linens, crisp white china, and natural rattan or rope accents for a subtle nod to nautical charm. Fresh hydrangeas, clear glassware, touches of navy, and flickering candlelight make it a perfect choice for an elegant summer wedding.

3. Natural Elegance: Earth Tones & Neutrals

For couples drawn to organic, rustic aesthetics, an earth-toned tablescape is the ideal choice for a Berkshires barn wedding or a countryside gathering. We love this “shades of brown” wedding concept. Soft taupe, terracotta, and creamy beige pair beautifully with textured stoneware, gold flatware, and natural linen napkins. Elevate the look with ceramic vases filled with dried florals and greenery, and use warm candlelight to create a cozy, inviting atmosphere.

Tented Weddings: A Must for Outdoor Celebrations

While tablescapes create intimate moments, tents define the overall event space—offering both elegance and versatility. In the Berkshires, where outdoor weddings are popular, tented venues allow couples to embrace nature without worrying about unpredictable weather.

Sailcloth Tents for Timeless Elegance

Sailcloth tents remain a top choice for their airy, romantic feel, blending beautifully with the scenic landscapes of Western Massachusetts and beyond. Their soft, flowing fabric and natural wood poles create an ethereal look, perfect for garden weddings, vineyard celebrations, and lakeside events.

Clear-Top Tents: Bringing the Outdoors In

For those who love an open-air aesthetic but want protection from the elements, clear-top tents are a sophisticated solution. When placed under the starry skies of the Berkshires, these tents create a breathtaking ambiance while providing shelter and comfort.

Bringing Your Vision to Life

The beauty of event design is its evolution—new inspirations emerge, but classic elegance always remains. Whether you’re drawn to the deep greens and pinks of an enchanted evening, the crisp blues of a coastal gathering, or the soft romance of blush tones, your event should reflect a style that feels both now and forever.
