Behind the Scenes at Meg: Inside the Artist's Kitchen Collection Launch Dinner

Yesterday, we fulfilled a long-held wish: to host a dinner to celebrate the launch of Meg's new collection. The Artist's Kitchen Collection arrived at the perfect time to bring this dream to life, after all: there's nothing better than a dinner to celebrate kitchen items!
Alongside cherished guests, we had a super special night! All the dishes were prepared and served by Ciganando, a vegan food project made in a social impact kitchen. We highly recommend following their Instagram and always checking their website for their event schedule.
Shall we talk about the dinner?

Preparing a special night

Weeks before the highly anticipated day, we decided on the menu, prepared product kits to gift the guests, planned the decoration, and made the guest list.

The day before, we bought flowers to create table arrangements and separated the bags of items that needed to be taken to the venue. To help with organization, we made a task list – which was divided among the team.

On the day of the event, we arranged the flowers in vases (and they were all more beautiful than the last!) and helped the Ciganando team place the decorations. To highlight the collection, we set up a table with all the new items :)

Time to celebrate!

During the dinner, appetizers, one starter, two main courses, and two desserts were served. To present the dishes, we placed a menu for each guest on the table, along with a card explaining the collection.
Let's check out each dish!
