So, about a month ago coco+kelley quietly turned five. I usually do a big ‘ol celebration on the blog for each anniversary, but I wanted to wait because this year is going to be special. This year… we’re going to celebrate all year long. Launching the new site was just the beginning. Next up? Dinner party planning!
Later this month, I’ll be throwing a little soiree to thank my friends and family here in Seattle who have been so incredibly supportive of me and my blog throughout the years. I want it to be special and intimate…
So the next few weeks will find me busily booking florists, designing the table, and putting together a delicious menu…
In hopes of creating an evening that feels something like these images. Fresh, classic, a little glamorous, a little farm-to-table. All very coco+kelley. And – if we’re lucky – this won’t be the last dinner party (hint, hint). We’ll have so many more fun announcements and new things to bring you in the next year, I can hardly wait to share them all. This is just the beginning of the celebration!

KUDOS!!!!!! And, those “images” are just DREAMY!!!!! franki
oooh, dinner parties. Thought out, well executed dinners are sooo grown-up, aren’t they? I can only imagine how devine yours will be. Thanks to you, I threw myself a perfectly grown-up gathering not long ago. Every minute of lost sleep was worth it! And every $ spent on Etsy was the cherry on the top.
Any readers out there who want to glamour, definitely get to know Happy Menocal. Thank you, Coco+Kelley for the introduction! Mwah!
Here’s a glimpse of my night –
