Hosting an Intimate Dinner

Recently, we gathered all of the Atlanta Wedding Loft vendors together for our quarterly dinner meeting. Similar to a bridal shower or rehearsal dinner, these quarterly dinner meetings are small and intimate, designed to create great conversation while enjoying a delicious meal. To create that feel, we called upon Peachtree Tents & Events for help and they suggested an estate table that would allow for everyone to be seated at one table. Additionally they recommended the mahogany folding chairs to accent the casually elegant look we were going for. The estate table was dressed in ivory linens,  a brown paper runner and simply adorable centerpieces put together by our in house creative guru, Melissa Roth.  

Nothing accents a great looking table more than an amazing meal and Zest Atlanta Catering did not disappoint us with the decadent dinner buffet they prepared for us. From beef tenderloin to salmon served upon a bed of cous cous, the wide variety of menu items satisfied even the most selective palette. As Hannah Harris mentioned, “It’s important to consider your guest in your menu selection and offering variety whenever possible.” To say we were spoiled, is putting it lightly.

Whether your event is big or small, having a great atmosphere and great food can make all the difference and we were lucky to experience just that!

Surprise! Black Tie Barbecue’s Secret Supper

Everyone loves a surprise party!  That’s why Black Tie Barbecue’s quarterly Secret Supper is such a popular sellout event.  The event is composed of delicious food, plentiful drinks, wonderful service, memorable entertainment, and last but certainly not least, mystery!  Guests buy their tickets in advance without knowing the location, the guest list, or the menu of the event.  Everyone anxiously awaits where they’re going, who they will see, or what they will wear until the big reveal.  The day before the event, the location of the event is announced.  Hundreds of people flock to incredible and unique venues that transform a simple space into a magical night!  A Sinclair Gas Station, a Virginia Highland mansion, an unfinished office in Atlantic Station overlooking the Atlanta skyline, The Theatrical Outfit, and Relics and Rarities are past Secret Supper locations, just to name a few.  The number of tickets sold for each Secret Supper depends on the location of the mystifying event.  The next Secret Supper on Cinco de Mayo sold out in less than thirty minutes!
