Lenox Hill Spring Gala 2018 "SPLASH" Save the Date!



The Horticultural Society of New York Spring Gala Invitation


The Orchid Dinner 2018

How delightful during the midst of frigid temps and freezing rain to step inside the Plaza Hotel for an evening surrounded by the most glorious table settings enhanced by a profusion of exquisite orchids. The New York Botanical Garden Orchid Dinner 2018, the much anticipated annual event that benefits the Garden’s orchid research collection and orchid preservation. Sponsored by HearstVERANDA and Louis XIII cognac, the event was chaired by editor in chief Clinton Smith with Director of Decoration and Special Projects Carolyn Englefield serving as Decorations Chair. 

My theme was "Pretty in Pink".  I used my "go to" vendor, Lladro.  They always are delighted to donate fabulous items to my fantasy tablescapes.  I used Cymbidium orchids and paired them with Snapdragons and Hydrangea to give the table a full and delightful vibe.
