Maria Makes Entertaining... a piece of cake!

This book is amazing in every way! I just pulled off a dinner party that could have been a nightmare without this guide. I wanted everything to be perfect, and it was. The photos are exquisite and gave me great ideas that are actually do-able. Most helpful were Maria's tips on stocking up on party basics. A must have for all of those who stress before hosting any event- big or small.

Wonderful!

I bought this book for my newly married daughter. But of course, I had to sneak a peek for myself! The book is warm and "user friendly"! Maria makes everything look easy and fun to do. Not only is this a book that you would use over and over again for ideas, it would look fabulous on any coffee table. Thumbs up!

Something NEW - for Any "NEW NESTER"

What a fabulous book, Maria has done it yet again. As a new nester myself ( not married, but single in a new home) I have to tell you this book is not only the perfect addition to my coffee table, but has given me the courage to invite people over and feel like I have all the pieces in place for a fabulous party. All of Maria's party planning ideas are done with greatest attention to detail, that I know my guests will appreciate and definitely comment on! A celebration planning guide that will take you from start to finish, all year-round. Definitely the most stylish gift for any housewarming party!
