island tablescape

I just spent several days in Punta Cana for my daughter's destination wedding.  We stayed at an all inclusive resort with several restaurants.  This tablescape for two was set up outside the entrance to one of the restaurants.  It featured a beautifully folded napkin, three forks, three knives, a soup spoon and a butter plate and knife.  The glasses were arranged in a diagonal line.  Each day this table was set differently.


Multiple knives was typical for most settings.  Sometimes the knives were identical.  Sometimes the knives were the same pattern with one slightly larger or slightly more elaborate.

These knives had an interesting curve.

This blurry picture shows the two different knives.  The outside knife was a bit longer with a slightly wider handle.  White tablecloths were typical in the restaurants.  The tables near the buffet generally had a placemat.  
 
                                   

This was the place setting for the wedding supper.  This was the only meal we had where a charger was used..
