Thank you for reading! This contest is now closed.

Gifted entertaining, like any other success, is probably a combination of inspiration and perspiration. This book certainly appears to provide elegant guest-centered inspirational ideas. The menus and recipes often provide me a few “sweating bullets” moments; would love to have this book’s help! It sounds like a winning combination for the hostess/host and guests alike!

Looks like a great book – esp with summer entertaining season coming upon us and more days and evenings outdoors with friends!

Entertaining is my way of making my friends and family feel appreciated and loved. I also enjoy applying creativity to my table, menu and the little details that make a day special. Should I receive a copy, I would put this book to good use.

I have some major milestones and special occasions to celebrate soon! This book would come in soooo handy! What inspirational ideas!

This book looks beautifully done. My husband and I love entertaining and will be hosting an engagement party for my sister this summer. This book would be a great help in planning for it.

I love hosting parties and get togethers. This looks like a lovely book with great ideas. Always in need of new ideas.
