My sister and husband were not big on celebrating wedding anniversaries. But having started my private dining in 2010, they decided to throw a small, intimate dinner just for family. Hosting a private dinner for me is not just about the food. It is a total experience. Leaning towards the arts, I must say I am a very visual person. While taste is of utmost importance, everything should be pleasing to the eye. So a lot of attention to detail and an added personal touch goes with my style.
I remember very well my sister's wedding. I was a pregnant sponsor and my only daughter then was a flower girl with a crown of little pink flowers. In contrast to her very strong personality, her color motif was a very sweet, light pink -"blush" as it is referred to today. I tried to recreate a very fresh and elegant atmosphere, choosing roses in "blush" coupled with a hand crafted menu that looked like an invitation card.
