If you're hosting a dinner party or a holiday meal, you may find this table setting useful. The semi-formal table setting builds on the casual setting by adding a few extra pieces. If guests will be drinking more than one beverage at the table�water and wine for example�arrange all the glasses on the right side in descending order of glass height. Water should generally be served in the tallest glass, and therefore the water glass should be closest to the plate.
