TRADITIONS TO SAVOR
ynonymous with South Carolina cuisine, a culinary extravaganza of seafood, sausage, and vegetables swimming in spices and fresh-squeezed lemon sparks lively fellowship throughout the South. Host friends for a classic Lowcountry shrimp boil, complemented by regionally inspired eats and sweets, on a patio ensconced in secret-garden charm.

Artisan-made bowls—essential for the hands-on fare—crown ceramic plates bearing a mix of floral designs. Emphasize the color palette of the dishware with sapphire-blue glasses and hobnail tumblers, glimmering alongside bright-green taper candles. Much like the fluffy buttercream dolloped on pineapple-filled coconut cupcakes, white hydrangeas billow over the brims of three tabletop baskets. ‘Lemon Chiffon’ dahlias, golden zinnias, and various white blossoms in mismatched vessels add to the runner-style display.
