When I was invited to style a dinner celebrating 100 of the most influential women in the South made by some of the most powerful women chefs for Atlanta Food and Wine Festival, I couldn’t jump on board soon enough. Cator Woolford Gardens at the Frazer Center proved to be the perfect location to wine and dine these impressive ladies, and we were thrilled to kick off our festival weekend with such a special event.

Despite the storms rolling into Atlanta, and a moment when we wondered if we were going to get everything pulled off, a beautiful evening unfolded amidst twinkle lights, lush floral centerpieces by Lindsay Coletta, favors of Himalayan pink salt, and Jenn’s gorgeous watercolor menus and hand-lettered place cards for all.

The rest of the weekend’s storms couldn’t keep us away from the tasting tents, where we roamed from chef to chef and tried everything we could get our hands on.  It was the perfect way to end a weekend full of our favorite things: friends, food, wine and dinner parties. Truly, MKR

  • I was there on Sunday and the storm hit right after brunch thankfully! I loved getting to try a bunch of different vendors though and it was so great to meet some chefs in person!
