Our West Texas friends came together for good with an evening
of fine wining and dining at a private ranch in Abilene, Texas, to raise money
for the Pregnancy Resources of Abilene.
The hostess committee, led by Danna Oliver, handpicked everything from
the chef to the entertainment. With the
idea of a Tuscan feast in mind, they picked the fan favorite Top Chef alum and
Beaumont, Texas native Tiffany Derry to create an authentic Italian feast, which was
served family style and paired with five Italian wines. This magical night
under the stars also included musical pairings with each course thanks to the
award-winnings singer/songwriters Caryl and Scott Parker from Nashville (also
Abilene natives).

Chef Derry’s menu was
printed around an Italian Deruta pattern by Tinyah Hawkins for GoofididtyDesigns. Danna and friends hand-picked the tabletop for the evening. We
everything served family style, they still wanted to showcase the presentation
of each course as well as play with the bright whites and blues of the evening.
Courses were then served on either a traditional blue and white china plate or classic
catering white china. To further personalize the place settings, Parisian
Flatware was selected for its mixture of silver and gold, White Chloe Goblets
provided another pop of bright white, and the Pure Stemware was a perfect
choice for enhancing the wine selections. Thank you for allowing POSH to be a
part of such a special evening, Abilene!
