Summertime celebrations call for colorful decorations and light-yet-satisfying fare—gatherings like the Garden Soirée that our sister title, Celebrate Magazine, recently featured. With sunny invites and sweet Thank Yous (printables you can download for free!), and a tasty menu of savories and sweets, their party-planning expertise is in full bloom with this playful affair.
We loved it so much that we couldn’t resist sharing the party’s recipe for Lemon-Buttermilk Panna Cotta. Cool, sweet, and creamy—it’s the ideal dessert for your next summer event. Try it and don’t miss the rest of the details from this sunny celebration.
