Dinner with the Weducator ~ Mandarin Oriental Atlanta Hotel

November 18, 2013 By Leave a Comment

Hey yall! Last month I had the pleasure of attending an awesome event called Dinner With the Weducator, planned by one my one of my mentors, Tia Ervin. This intimate dinner party of Atlanta Wedding Planners was held at the lavish Mandarin Oriental Atlanta Hotel. We had a chance to tour this luxurious hotel and their ballrooms are perfect for a wedding wedding under 125 guests (you’ll see from the pictures below). We enjoyed a delicious meal prepared by the chef and the conversation was definitely inspiring! You can see from the pictures that I truly enjoyed myself…..I’m cheesing the whole time :-)

I anchored the table with a black and white chevron table runner which I absolutely adored ! I didn’t want to give it back ! LOL

I had a blast designing the tablescape for this dinner party. When I got the pictures back I noticed that this same concept could be used for a safari party ! Just a thought :-)
