Food & Wine events are always a great party! No detail goes unturned and it’s always fun to rub shoulders with some of the best chefs on the planet!

The event was held at Pranna in New York City and utilized the entire location. A instagram photo booth allowed for instant social media shares. An outdoor entryway was built to accommodate for the guests to arrive in style while celebrity DJ, Harley Viera Newton entertained the incoming Culinary A-Listers. The food was amazing (of course!), and a surprise performance by hip-hop violinist Damien Escobar was a highlight of the night.

The Food & Wine Team is always looking to out-do themselves each year. It was such an honor and a pleasure to create the design direction and collateral for this event and to work with all the creative minds that worked to present this top-notch event.
