Attendees will be treated to complimentary cocktails and curated hors d'oeuvres during a meet-and-greet with tastemakers, regional influencers, and brand partners. Saturday, May 10 features Sips and Stems and A Lovely Day: The Fashion Show. Sips and Stems takes place at 3 p.m., also at Vine Books & Vinyl. It features a bouquet bar where you can style your own bouquet. There are also bottomless mimosas and live music. The environment is designed to encourage creativity and conversation. A Lovely Day takes place at 6 p.m. Designer Latasha V. Henderson curates the fashion show and 'blends high style with soulful expression.'
