Jamie’s Editorial: Between Events, A Little Musing From the Palace

It’s Monday. I’m between events. It’s raining outside. I’ve got a hot cup of locally hand-roasted coffee in hand (thanks, Gaston), a few quiet minutes, and a head full of ideas. Between triple-checking timelines for the next weddings, crafting a new set of summer menus, and deciding whether we need 12 or 20 hydrangeas for the carriageway to hit that whimsical oomph I’m after… I figured I’d sit down and jot a few thoughts in case anyone out there is planning something special—a wedding, a birthday, maybe even a team retreat with a little more soul.

Today’s thought: themed parties that don’t feel forced, frilly, or lifted straight from a Pinterest board.
Specifically? That endlessly popular Tuscan garden vibe—and why maybe it’s time we gave it a little Peloponnesean twist.
