My Patio: #GirlBoss Spring Luncheon

March 28, 2018
  • Share

Ladies who lunch!

I recently held a spring luncheon for four fantastic women to discuss a project we’re all collaborating on. There is nothing more inspiring than being surrounded by fellow girl bosses supporting each other and being able to create together!

I invited everyone over to my house for a gathering on my patio – which ended up being the perfect way to celebrate the beautiful spring weather!

Follow along (below) to see how I pulled it off!

The table theme was delightful spring garden. I used Bernardaud salad plates and fine china I already owned. Then, I placed a sprig of eucalyptus and a white daisy in each napkin holder for a little sweet touch. You can shop the plates by clicking here.

My friend TN spent an hour on FaceTime with me one evening mapping out the table setting – which forced me to have a plan ahead of time! Bless her for bearing with me as I went through plate by plate until we had the perfect combination.

These are small vintage champagne glasses and Waterford crystal water glasses, which you can shop (currently on sale!) by clicking here.

For the centerpiece, I used a dark wood box, which is low so people can see each other across the table. I filled the box with hydrangea in small vases and put branches of dollar eucalyptus and ivy strewn across the table to create a runner.

COCOCOZY gift boxes, of course! Candles make the perfect party favor, which you can shop by clicking here.

I ordered 60 hydrangea ($2.63 to $2.88 per stem) from Gallonei – they ship fresh florals from South America overnight. Great value for fresh cut flowers!

A beautiful day to socialize and talk shop!

Now, for what you’ve all been waiting for: the menu. The night before the event, I crafted a series of dishes that was comfort food forward with a light touch. I consulted with my friend and chef extraordinaire Addison Brown, who executed it perfectly.

Here’s what we had cooking:

  1. Tomato soup (find the recipe here!)
  2. Baby kale salad with roasted butternut squash, radishes and beets with a lemon champagne vinaigrette
  3. Grilled cheese sandwiches with gruyere, caramelized onions and dijon made right on the spot so they are hot and gooey
  4. Dessert – Fresh berries with a almond shortbread cookie.
  5. Drinks – Water with lime, Rosé wine spritzer with a mix of berries, champagne.

I had so much fun putting this table together… and it only consisted of just a few elements!

 

Here’s the rundown:

  1. Blue hydrangea
  2. Ivy vines
  3. “Dollar” eucalyptus
  4. Wooden box
  5. 6 small vases in various sizes
  6. Plain linen napkins
  7. Plates
  8. Daisies tucked into napkins
  9. A mix of glassware

 

Tahdah!

 

We had such an amazing time – I can’t wait until the next one!
