    From bridal showers to Christmas celebrations, party decor like cheerful tableware adds a festive touch to any type of event, and it’s also extremely convenient to use. Cups, plates, napkins, and straws in the same color or theme lend a fun touch to every one of life’s special occasions.


    You can use party tableware like paper plates to serve burgers and hot dogs at a backyard barbecue or pour yummy punch into some cute plastic party cups at a baby shower or graduation party. Colorful napkins add a cheerful touch to any type of party, and they’ll keep you from having to wash a pile of cloth napkins afterward. Party utensils also make serving, eating, and entertaining much easier and more convenient.

    The materials that your party tableware is made of depends on whether you plan to reuse it and what type of occasion you’re celebrating. Here are some of the most popular party tableware materials to choose from:


    • Paper: Almost every type of disposable party plate is made of thick paper, and some cups are made of heavy-duty paper as well. This material is durable enough to handle all sorts of food and drink, yet it’s also disposable for quick and easy cleanup.
    • Plastic: Some plastic party tableware is reusable, while other types of plastic may be designed for just one use. Polypropylene party tableware is strong enough to handle several parties before it reaches the end of its lifespan, while thinner and lighter-weight plastic is usually made for single use.
    • Glass: Enjoy multiple celebrations with glass party tableware like gorgeous goblets and wine glasses, dinner plates, and chargers. Choose glass for your Christmas party tableware so you can set the table every year and celebrate the season in style.
    • Porcelain: This durable material is excellent for both special parties and everyday use at the dinner table. Look for versatile all-white porcelain tableware that you can use year-round, and spice things up for parties by adding some colorful napkins, straws, and cups.
