Hosting can be hard - there is a lot to coordinate! Food, guests with allergies or dietary restrictions, perhaps a seating chart, and well, cooking for people!

We absolutely love any and everything related to the dining experience, from choosing furniture and fixtures to creating a gorgeous tablescape and everything in between. For anyone who loves to host, serveware is especially important. We've scouted our top picks that are practical for any gathering and maintain a beautiful design aesthetic. The white and blue pieces feel fresh and modern but give a nod to traditional styling. Wood pieces feel relaxed and easy, while the metallic elements bring subtle glamour. Together or individually, these serveware items can transition from a relaxed gathering (think brunch) to a fancy dinner or holiday party.

We wanted the theme to be loosely based on the children's book Where the Wild Things Are, which is fitting for our baby boy, Wilder! Because we were having it at our home and because we'd had a traditional shower for big sister, Reese, we decided to invite the guys along this time. We kept things simple and easygoing- cornhole, craft beers and champagne cocktails helped set the mood for a perfect day!
