Our Favorite Holiday Serveware Designs and How to Pair Them With Your Festive Dishes

When it comes to holiday gatherings, the right serveware can set the tone for a memorable occasion. Whether you’re hosting a cozy family dinner or a lively holiday party, seasonal serving dishes can showcase your style and add festive cheer. 

 

Why Holiday Serving Dishes?

 

Festive serving dishes add a seasonal or themed touch to your events. Emphasize the reason for your gathering, showcase your party menu, and make the occasion feel extra special with dedicated serveware. 

Plus, choosing the right dishes to highlight the colors and presentation of your food makes culinary creations look more appealing and enticing. Adding festive serveware can help you bring the theme of your gathering right to your tablescape. Instead of using neutral platters or boards, add one with a fun illustration or shape so your table coordinates with the rest of your home’s holiday décor.

With our large selection of holiday serving dishes, you can express your unique personal style while staying on theme. Opt for a classic Christmas design with our Balsam and Berry platter or reminisce about Christmases past with a Christmas in the Village platter for your Christmas dinner. Whether you're hosting a large family feast like Thanksgiving or a casual Galentine’s brunch with your favorite ladies, festive serveware helps you set a table you love. 

 

 

Why Swap Everyday Dishes for Seasonal Styles?

 

By replacing your everyday staples with holiday-themed serveware and dishes, you instantly transform your table into a seasonal masterpiece. Change out your everyday dinnerware sets with a festive dinnerware collection; just swap out the stacks in your cabinets. You can also make a big impact when you incorporate seasonal serveware into your tablescape. Make hosting easier and more enjoyable for your next holiday gathering with this easy step that makes a big statement. 

 

Our Favorite Serving Dishes for Each Holiday

 

Our festive serving dishes make it easy to set a tablescape for any holiday. In our holiday serveware collections, you’ll find shaped dishes, covered bowls, and more that are perfect for both everyday meals with family and large gatherings to celebrate each season. 

Plus, when you serve a family-favorite recipe in the same serving platter year after year, you create holiday traditions. We encourage you to lean into the festivities each holiday brings and select serving dishes to use for your own inspired parties – maybe even creating your own family traditions in the process.
