Valentine theme dinner

Two years ago, we hosted a Rehearsal Dinner in our home for about 30 people.Transforming our Family Room into an intimate dining area took a little bit of creative thinking and work.

Our Family room and kitchen dining area normally look like this -

 The transformation -
Removal of sofa, rugs, tables and chairs
set up 8 foot tables and folding chairs

My daughter worked her magic with decorating the tables.

The coffee station proved to be very popular on a cold night.
The heart shaped napkin tutorial was found HERE.  Perfect for Valentine's Day, Anniversary or Wedding party.
 Candles are lit, we are just waiting for the guests to arrive.

WOW!!!!! You really worked hard to do that for that loving couple.

Your transformation is incredible!

And the size of your room to be able to do that is limitless! AWESOME!!

Special occasions like a Rehearsal Dinner are so much better when held in a home and you've done a terrific job transforming your space. The heart napkins are perfect as are the scattered rose petals. I'm sure everyone had a lovely time enjoying the table decor and set-up.

You did a beautiful job of accommodating such a large group with out it feeling cramped!!! I'm sure it was a celebration you will all remember because of all the love put into it.

It looks so good. I like the white with the red contrasts, it really makes it pop. What a fun thing to host. Thanks for sharing we are neighbors at #ImpartingGrace
