Everyone loves a party, but no one can create one as
spectacularly as David Tutera. In America Entertains,
the party-planner extraordinaire has created blueprints for
16 themed events-one for each month plus four additional
fêtes-that celebrate America's regions and traditions. Each
party plan offers ideas for everything from cocktails to
floral designs, invitations to tabletops. Whether your
gathering is intimate or for hundreds, Tutera's innovative
strategies for fun, elegance, and decadence let you create a
fantastic and all-encompassing look. Tutera's recipes for
great hosting include classic American dishes as well as
comprehensive tips for theme and decoration. His Summer
Solstice Celebration in Santa Fe features a Slow-Baked
Salmon with Chardonnay-Butter Sauce; the Ranch Country
Wedding Reception near Dallas includes the mix for a Smoky
Martini. Each of Tutera's parties is organized into three
levels-Essentials, Extras, and Extravagances-for varying
budgets and time limits. Tutera Tips condense his years of
experience into quick hints for difficult topics-what to do
with your guests' coats, or where to seat your eccentric uncle.
