<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>In her first book, noted hostess Stephanie Booth Shafran shares her secrets for planning and giving brilliantly executed parties at home.</b> <p/>Taking at-home entertaining to an entirely new level, sophisticated L.A. hostess Stephanie Booth Shafran--recently named by the Salonniere as one of the top hostesses in Los Angeles--has a gift for celebration. From the table settings to the decor to the color-coordinated menus, every party she hosts showcases a myriad of inspired elements. In her first book, she shows readers how to set the stage for eight parties, from an elegant housewarming in her Jeffrey Bilhuber-decorated home to a classic California pool party to a festive Christmas brunch. She also shares advice on palette creation--blue and white for a ladies' charity luncheon, and deep burgundies for a gentleman's wine and cigar party. Each chapter ends with tips for that theme, whether it is entertaining alfresco or having parties for a charitable purpose. Shafran also includes a guide to her party essentials: inspiration, invitations, flowers, tablescape, linens, seating, the bar, and select recipes.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>From the flowers to the menu, entertaining expert Stephanie Booth Shafran shares tips for a chic and easy celebration this spring. --GALERIE MAGAZINE <p/>"Entertaining Master Stephanie Booth Shafran Brings Zodiac-Filled Fun to Her New Year's Dinner Party...Finally, an out-of-this-world party that all signs will enjoy."<br> --<i>Veranda</i> <p/> "Her refined eye for aesthetics--influenced by a love of fashion, architecture and interior design -- enables Shafran to create transformative settings for friends and loved ones." <br> --<i>C Magazine<br></i><br>"You're invited into the world of classic, elegant entertaining by Stephanie Booth Shafran.
