Summer Dinner Party in Pictures

June 6, 2012

Remember the Gourmet Dinner Club I told you about?
12 girls, partnered up with a pal, to create and serve a delicious, gourmet meal for the group.
It was our turn a few weeks ago. And here are the photos from the evening. Recipes to come.
We held the dinner on my Mom’s back patio which overlooks the lake by our house.
The jar centerpieces are from this DIY project.

A shout out to my partner, Brittney—who did way more than her fair share of the work while my pregnant self waddled around the kitchen complaining of heartburn and sore feet. Thanks for putting up with me Britt.

 

 The evening was perfect. We asked all the guests to bring photos from their high school prom–it made for a hilarious conversation starter.
Stay tuned for the yummy recipes.

    Adorable! Love every single thing. But most of all the painted jars/array of flowers. Oh and the chairs too! I have a dear friend getting married in the near future and this would make a perfect bridal shower for her. Thanks for sharing!

    That looks amazing! I really think I want to start one of these groups. 🙂

    I’m such a goof though; I was totally squinting to read the menu, and then da, da, dum…scroll down and there is a close-up! I should skim before I stop to take everything in! It was so beautiful I couldn’t wait to dive in!! I’m obsessed with food. 🙂

    So, I want to have a dinner party, but am trying to figure something out:
    I see the table set and everything, but then I see the foods all set out on the plates before they’re at the table, so how do you serve the food. Bring it to trays at the table and serve each guest? Or is everything set out just for photos? Do you take all the plates and serve things up in the kitchen and bring the filled plate back to the table? (Yes, I’m a newbie at such things:))

    By the way, I love all your dinner parties! They’re so cute and the food all looks delicious!
