Spring Dinner Party at 48 Fields

April 17, 2017 in Spring Weddings

The sun is shining and the air is warm. It's finally spring! Nothing makes me happier than seeing green leaves starting to sprout from bare brown branches! Last year, at about this time, I was asked to provide flowers for a community dinner for the Leesburg Chapter of the Rising Tide Society. A group of creative entrepreneurs came together and pulled off an incredible event by contributing our individual talents. There were beautifully styled tables, delicious locally grown food, and of course, interesting and engaging guests. Take a peek inside the barn and this beautiful event!

I had so much fun designing for this dinner! The fresh greenery, seasonal flowers (tulips! ranunculus! daffodil! dogwood!), and potted plants running along the farmhouse tables really brought the spring time vibe to the event. The best part, though, was getting to sit down to enjoy the deeeelicious food and have an opportunity to meet so many other creative professionals from the Loudoun County area!
