Rooftop Wine & Food Tasting Party :: The Overview

August 17th, 2011 at 11:25 am. Posted in Party.

Once a year I like to throw a small dinner party for our friends – an excuse to get together, outside of a birthday or shower.  Living in LA space is hard to come by, so when my husband and I bought our condo a couple years ago and found out it had a rooftop deck we were stoked. And I immediately thought of the all the parties we could host up there!

So this year, I took our love for wine and fresh farmer’s market food and hosted a Central Coast Wine and California Fare tasting party on our rooftop. Since there is no furniture on our rooftop deck, I always end up renting for parties. For the wine party I wanted to channel the feeling of being on a rustic vineyard, so opted for vintage furniture rentals from Found Vintage Rentals.

There are so many details I can’t wait to share, and will break the party into a few different posts: Decor,  Food + Wine Pairings and Favors + Other Tidbits. More to come soon, for now enjoy a few pictures!

   LOVE THIS! I found your site through my friend at Yellow & Savvy Design…… and was so excited to see this! I am having a non-traditional bridal shower that is going to be a relaxing wine night, or noche de vino…Thanks for the ideas!
