"We were thrilled that Delaware Perfect Wedding Guide chose Baywood for their spring luncheon," said Sarah Dickinson, director of events. "It gave us the chance to showcase our recently renovated venue and the professionalism of our event staff."

 Dickinson created a Kate Spade theme for the luncheon. The ballroom was separated by pipe-and-drape provided by Dover Rent-All. A reception for socializing was held in one half of the ballroom. A seated luncheon event was served in the other. The guests mingled to music by Wired Up Entertainment, which offers DJs and photo booths.

Choice Party Rental provided the white linens with black-and-white-striped overlays and raspberry-colored napkins. Gold and pink linens on service tables picked up the theme. Party Rental Ltd. provided gold chargers and black water goblets. Baywood's Linda Geise created elegant floral centerpieces. In addition to Chef Tom Deptula's cuisine, the meal included desserts by Carolina Sugar Fairy. Professional photographer Maria DeForrest was also on hand.
