Everything you need to know about building a simple grazing table. All the inspiration you need with styling tips & tricks! Includes a FREE grazing table food list.
You all know I love planning a good party! I almost enjoy the planning part as much as the party itself. The more we entertain, the more I value recipes and dishes that don’t take a lot of time, or can be made in advance.
I want it all – something that is sure to wow our guests, but without a lot of effort required the day of the event. I do everything I can to keep from being totally overwhelmed and to make sure our guests aren’t arriving to a kitchen that looks like a tornado just hit.
A grazing table is the mecca of easy entertaining, whether it’s a wedding or a holiday party. It takes no skill to arrange. The key is starting with the right ingredients. My motto? “More is more”. If you’ve followed me for a while you know that phrase describes my aesthetic perfectly – colorful and busy, but still stylish.
