...there's always a reason to celebrate Houses & Parties marks occasions with events known for their unabashed style, wit, and whimsy. You're invited to crash twenty of our parties , from weddings to intimate dinners at home, finding fabulous inspiration at every turn.Fall into a rabbit hole into a swirl of our elegantly offbeat parties, mischievous winks, and lush tablescapes, where ceramic snails creep under flower petals and chandelier girls covered in Swarovski crystals beckon guests to the dance floor. This book—like our parties—is a decadent feast for the eyes, with photography by Adam Kuehl that captures never-before-seen images that exude the surprise and delight of my hyperbolic entertaining style. From a brass band leading guests to dinner along the tracks of the Napa Wine Train to a pink-poodle-themed holiday party with a bountiful buffet of retro desserts, the pages burst with entertainments, heavy pours, and flattering light as all the elements combine in a perfectly orchestrated yet seemingly effortless way that makes it impossible for guests not to have a screaming blast!Dress up, curl up, and read along as I opine on the role of an exceptional host and a fabulous guest, why every party needs a Pied Piper, and how to create wonder for guests. The book's drumroll is a foreword by Sofia Coppola. Each chapter features gorgeous parties that illustrate the joy found in entertaining, filled with memories of childhood parties, grown-up parties, and the desire to somehow merge the two. A chapter on the anatomy of a successful party and a list of resources present practical information for making the mundane delicious.
