## Resource

How do you create amazing tablescapes and décor that both wow your guests and foster connection? Today, I talk with best-selling entertaining author Kimberly Schlegel Whitman, Founder of Trunk Curated, to discuss this important and often underutilized event topic. Tablescapes and décor are the one thing that can seamlessly highlight the theme of the event and create the environment to build long-lasting relationships. Over the years, Kimberly has hosted five-star events throughout the world, ranging from intimate dinner parties for six to galas for over 1,000. Guests clamor for invitations to an event hosted by Kimberly, as everyone who attends knows they will enjoy amazing food, sit next to interesting people, and develop lifelong friendships. She understands better than anyone how the small details are the secret to creating unforgettable event experiences. Kimberly provides valuable insights on a range of topics, including creating the right mindset in approaching events of different sizes, using décor for themed events in an elevated, sophisticated way, the importance of strategically seating guests to achieve your event goals, and so much more. This is one episode you will definitely not want to miss.
