Katharine and Ivan had a vision – Close friends and family for an afternoon elegant lunch picnic at the UBC Farm, followed by an elegant party with extended friends for desserts, vintage spanish wine, and champagne amongst the barley fields. What a beautiful and magical day it became – and lasted well into the evening – their vision was executed perfectly.
Favours included local honey on each place setting.
