I didn’t realize until last month that most of my friends was born April. And one of them is Chiche, a friend who’s like an adopted sister to us and whom we met accidentally but truly meant to be. Anyway, she had a french themed dinner party in our favorite french restaurant, Bon Apetit.

Of course, the beautiful ambiance and the theme, wouldn’t be complete without the paper details. The dinner was plated and with wine pairing so a menu card was definitely needed, then some placecards for the sitting arrangement. Inspired by this pinterest board, I made the front simple and added a pattern at the back.

French theme has always been the source of my inspiration. The simplicity, elegance, chic and everything about it, is just so lovely. I was so happy when I designed this, all the more when Yves, the french owner of Bon Apetit complimented it.

The menucards and placecards look so beautiful when I saw them with the table setting. The decoration was done perfectly by Florence, the creative mind behind Occasions, also a very good friend of ours.

A toast to my dear gang2, Chiche, for health, wealth, more travels and like you said, for tending to age gracefully in your distinct way. Happy birthday gang!
