“Table skirting” is defined as draping a table with a
table cloth in order to give the table a formal and
elegant look. Table skirts are often used at wedding
receptions, press conferences and any other social
events.
Pleat/s - a type of fold formed by doubling fabric back upon itself
and securing it in place. It is commonly used
in clothing and upholstery to gather a wide piece of fabric
to a narrower circumference.
TOPPER SKIRT
Table skirt toppers cover the top

of the table.
Toppers are non-pleated and have
finished edges. Table skirting goes around
Universal sizes work on both the perimeter (border) of

banquet tables.
Gathered or Shirred
• a popular choice due to the
simplicity and reasonable
cost. A gathered or shirred
table skirt is a fabric drape
drawn together by threads
along the top hem providing
extra body to the skirt. A
tighter gather gives a table
skirt a full, ruffled
appearance.
Knife Pleats
• is a series of narrow, sharp
creases folded in the same
direction. Unlike gathered
table skirts, knife pleats
create smooth, precise lines
down the length of the skirt.
The knife pleated table skirt
is a classic choice that is the
least expensive of the
pleated variety.
Box Pleats
• is made from a sequence of
back-to-back knife pleats.
Box pleated table skirting is a
good choice for a
professional conference or
business meeting. The box
pleats give the table a neat,
tailored appearance. Box
pleats have a more
pronounced projection than
a simple knife pleat, adding
dimension and interest to
business or formal tables.
French Box Pleats
• provide even more volume
than standard box pleats.
French pleats are narrower
than regular box pleats,
giving the bottom of the
table skirting a fuller
appearance. French box
pleats work equally well in
casual or elegant settings..
Fringe
• Metallic, tissue and raffia
fringe skirts have a number of
imaginative uses. This kind of
decorative fringe is a charming
substitute for table skirting
and serves as a festive wall
border for special
celebrations. Natural raffia
table skirting is perfect for a
tropical or luau-themed event.
Raffia fringe works as hula
table skirting, tiki bar draping
and funky wall decor.
Banquet
• business or party tables can
be fitted with detachable
swags that are placed over
any kind of cloth table
skirting. Swags are
commonly attached with
overlap clips that will not
flatten or damage the table
skirt pleating. Swags are an
easy way to dress up an
otherwise plain table skirt.

Utensils are placed about 20
cm from the edge of the table,
with all placed either upon the
same invisible baseline or
upon the same invisible
median line. Utensils in the
outermost position are used
first (for example, a soup
spoon and a salad fork, then
the dinner fork and the dinner
knife). The blades of the knives
are turned toward the plate.
Glasses are placed an inch or
so above the knives, also in the
order of use: white wine, red
wine, dessert wine, and water
tumbler.

dishes are placed on
the table. Sometimes
the cup and saucer are
placed on the right side
of the spoon, about
30cm from the edge of
the table. Often, in less
formal settings, the
napkin should be in the
wine glass.

FILIPINO SETTING
Plates are set the usual and we use spoon and fork
sometime with bare hands. food are placed at the center
of the table, sometimes complete (chicken, fish, veggies,
beef, pork) in different styles of cooking. rice must
definitely be there. there is a saucer for each one where
we put condiments appropriate for the food(fish sauce,
vinegar, kalamansi(lemon for some) or tomatoes).
English SETTING
The English table setting has the service plate in the center with a
folded napkin lying diagonally across it. Immediately to the left of
the service plate are the forks. Generally, there are three forks
present: the dinner fork, the fish fork and the salad fork. To the
right of the service plate are two knives: a dinner knife and a fish
knife. The soup spoon and oyster fork, if shellfish is to be served,
are placed alongside the knives, also to the right of the service
plate.
AMERICAN SETTING
A method of serving hotel or restaurant food, in which
portions of food are placed on plates in kitchen (except
for bread and butter and salads which are served on the
table) by the establishment's employees and served to
each guest by a waiter or waitress.

faster and less expensive than) French service,
except that the food is completed (prepared and
garnished) in the kitchen and only one waiter
(server) is used.
FRENCH SETTING
Method of serving private dining or restaurant food
in which partially cooked food is brought from the
kitchen on a cart which is used also for the final
cooking. Food is completed in front of the guests and
served by a waiter or waitress who offers a dish to
each guest who helps himself or herself.
Blue plate SETTING
A term used in the United States by restaurants,
especially diners andcafes. It refers to a low-priced meal that
usually changes daily.
The term was very common from the 1920s through the

definition: "A Blue Plate Special is a low-priced daily
diner special: a main course with all the fixins, a daily
combo, a square for two bits."
