As another strawberry season swiftly draws to a close, I thought I’d give this beloved fruit a sweet send off. Inspired by my favorite Jane Austen novel, Emma, an alfresco, high-tea picnic at Donwell Abbey captures the essence of these heart-shaped berries that carefully balance fanciful whimsy with delicate beauty. The epitome of elegance at ease, this repast will have you relishing the flavors and fleeting, balmy afternoons of spring.

Butter yellow is having its moment in the spotlight and I can’t think of a better way to celebrate mom than with this sunny shade. With plenty of scallops, daisies, and pearls, this sophisticated setting is timeless and charming—just like the guest of honor.

If you’re in need of inspiration for setting your Kentucky Derby table, look no further than Woodford Reserve’s specialty bottle commemorating the 151st race.

Easter serves as our yearly reminder of what is to come, our hope in an eternity that awaits and the welcoming warmth of spring after a long and dreary winter. I hope you enjoy the charm and sentiments this Easter setting provides and that inspires a future tablescape you create!
