As the host of the Discovery Channel''s popular show Party
Planner with David Tutera, leading lifestyle expert David Tutera
lends his expertise to people looking to throw an unforgettable
party on an everyday budget. In this lavishly illustrated companion
book, Tutera lays out his approach to ten theme parties. The
examples he presents here include summer and winter cocktails, a
wine-tasting gathering, a harvest feast, a Christmas dessert party,
a Chinese New Year celebration, and special occasions such as a
birthday party for kids, a wedding proposal, and an enchanted
anniversary dinner set in a forest. Tutera urges readers to
consider the five senses when planning an event-the taste, the
look, the sound, the scent, and the touch-and throws in his own
personal suggestions, favorite songs, cocktail recipes, and other
handy ideas. He also includes plenty of "Tutera Tips" for
invitations, entertainment, room transformation, decor, menu ideas,
table settings, and floral arrangements. David Tutera is a highly
regarded event planner and designer with many celebrity clients.
However, as he demonstrates in this book, it doesn''t take a lot of
money and extravagance to throw an extraordinary party. With David
Tutera''s fresh, original twist on time-honored traditions, anyone
can throw a fabulous-yet easy and affordable-party for any
occasion.
