Blogger Brunch at The Amsden

This past weekend I was thrilled to host the most fun little brunch at The Amsden for a group of my local blogger friends.   I'm hoping this will be the first of many events like this in our spaces and I had so much fun decorating and setting everything up inside the coffee shop.  I decided to keep it simple and go with a winter white theme on the table settings.  I found the table runners, napkins, and cute disposable plates at Homegoods.  I wanted to keep cleanup simple so I also used this disposable wooden flatware which was super cute but also practical!  I put together some quick floral arrangements in gold jars using all white flowers, eucalyptus, and baby's breath.  I also cut some extra stems to lay on each place setting on top of the plate and napkin.
