Blogger of the Week: Set Sip Serve

This week we are featuring two amazing founders of the blog, about it malady Set Sip Serve, sildenafil Annie and Benton.

How did you come up with the brilliant idea of Set, Sip, Serve?

After going to a casual dinner party of a friend, Benton woke up in the middle of the night inspired to create a site where people could find ideas for entertaining at home and be able to purchase. Benton and I LOVE to entertain, from mom playdates to adult dinner parties. We realized after hours and hours of scouring pinterest and blogging sites that there needed to be a “go-to” entertaining site where one can find everything they need for everyday entertaining and family gatherings big and small. Hence, building SetSipServe.

How did you two start working together?

We have been friends for over 20 years since our single days in LA. We merged minds and talents about a year ago when we realized Annie’s expertise in food and wine and my creativity in table setting could be combined to present exactly what we wanted for SetSipServe

We chatted with these lovely ladies to find out what their must-have items to throw the perfect Spring BBQ! Find out what they said below:

Mark & Graham Cotton Monogrammed Napkins ($48.00-89.00)- We are all about the details! We think it is super important to have personal touches even at BBQ’s.
