Fort Worth hosts Laurie Bates and Jennifer Ellison launched Crowded Table, a women’s supper club, in March. Inspired by Women’s History Month, this dinner club was created to celebrate a new group of remarkable women every month. Top Chef Jenna Kinard was invited as the inaugural guest chef.

The Cutipol cutlery and Concrete Charger served up elegant and uncommon dimensions, perfectly balanced in contemporary elegance, while the Kim Seybert Helix goblet set the stage for a glamorous toast to each celebrated course.

Garden Party

Rather than go the romantic route, the idea behind this Garden Party was a modern spin on Alice in Wonderland. When faced with a “curiouser and curiouser” year, as Alice would say, one could have gone in the direction of the Red Queen. The idea of this place setting was to find the fun in the funky.  The Christian Lacroix Butterfly Parade gives classic garden vibes, but when paired with Black and Gold China, it transforms into a new aesthetic.

Wine Tasting

P.O.S.H. selections offer more than just a pretty stem. Sommeliers and tastemakers love the varietal specific stemware of Extreme Riedel, while other stemware offerings include hand crafted glass and modern silhouettes. This rose all-day party invokes the elegance of Italian al fresco dining, making the handmade Italian chargers by Arte Italica a must. Vintage water goblets rounded out the old world vibe for a beautiful new tradition.

Cheese and Wine Tasting

The classic Marchesa Collection isn’t just for bridal. The Shades of Blue dinnerware paired with Cutipol GOA Blue and Gold cutlery for a fresh take on a memorable birthday night with the girls. The client chose to layer the rentals atop of a round cheeseboard as an elevated charger and unique party favor.

Backyard Dinner with Friends

Summer is the season of backyard cookouts, but your event can still look effortless without paper plates. Farmhouse tables allow for a laidback luxurious feel while the Denmark chairs provide comfort and style. The Arte Italica Guiletta Dinner Plate adds charm and elegance to any table. Her smokey rim of the plates and organic floral design can be played up with dark and light elements, making this addition a must for any al fresco affair.
