A CHAMPAGNE INFUSED MIDNIGHT SUPPER
“Come quickly, I am tasting the stars”
CHAMPAGNE MIDNIGHT SUMMER
THE SPIRIT
A celebratory occasion for the new year, brightened with a spirited feeling of festivity and hope.
THE SETTING
Add a touch of feminine energy to the joyous occasion – set the table aglow with candles of varying heights. Add white (plates) gold (chargers) and crystal (glasses) and fresh eucalyptus for garland.
THE FOOD + DRINK
Champagne
Fried chicken champagne
Buttermilk biscuits
Mac-n-cheese
Black-eyed pea salad
A buffet-style presentation for the food makes serving a breeze - pop the fried chicken on a fancy tiered server and put the biscuit fixings on an antique metallic tray
THE PLAYLIST
Start with mellow background music and when the effervescence of the sparkling champagne begins to release its magical powers, sing. Loud. Timeless sing-along songs for the crew: Hey Jude, The Beatles; Sweet Home Alabama, Lynyrd Skynyrd; Uptown Funk, Mark Ronson; Build me up Buttercup, The Foundations; Don’t Stop Believing, Journey; Sweet Caroline, Neil Diamond
THE GLAMOROUS TOUCH
A moment of exuberant extravagance is a well-deserved entry to the new year. A champagne glass tower is the sparkling masterpiece. Create a round pyramid of stacked Champagne coupes and let the bubbly flow.
THE SPORT
Use empty champagne bottles as stakes for a raucous game of indoor champagne croquet.
