I'm busy planning and prepping for this year's big Auction of Washington Wines Winemaker Dinner event at Columbia Winery, coming up FAST in August. With the theme of the Grand Auction being 'Roaring Twenties' to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the AWW, our decor will reflect the swanky 1920's. You can see a few of my Inspiration Board images here... this dinner's decor will be all black & white, elegant with just a hint of a steamy side.
To read a killer description of what we have planned, check out Winemaker Dinners on the Auction of Washington Wines official site. The page also includes two photos from our dinner last year - the ones with walls of barrels.
The sad thing is that alongside our photos and description, the other dinners - all very lovely - just seem a bit.......um.......boring?! Tho at a few, the sparkling guests (like Bob & Cathy Betz of Betz Family Cellars) will more than make up for less than theatrical surroundings!
This dinner and all of the Auction events raise money for Children's Hospital here in Seattle. It is an absolute pleasure to participate in such a worthwhile cause. I get to listen to lots of great old Hollywood standards to get me in the swingin' 20's mood, too!
