So Much To Celebrate: Entertaining the Ones You Love the Whole Year Through

Awesome book! Awesome author! Awesome recipes!

Such beautiful photography. But the recipes are my favorite part! Such a great collection - I don’t know why I’d need another cookbook. Love the simple, elegant, fun southern flair of this book! I’m planning to buy another for a friends housewarming gift! Sharing the love!

Watch out folks...the next big food stylist/party-planning superstar has just arrived on the scene! Katie Jacobs has created an absolutely gorgeous book full of yummy recipes and exciting party ideas! This book is perfect for anyone who's into The Food Network, HGTV, or beautifully designed lifestyle books!

Lots of pretty and inspired ideas and recipes in here but nothing that really jumped out at me as something I would want to replicate. I like how it was divided up by season but wasn't focused on holidays, since not everyone celebrates the same ones. In ten years I think this will feel really dated but at the moment it's all very on trend.

This is the perfect book for planning your next party! Katie Jacobs keeps it real, with the perfect combination of home made and store bought. Photos are beautiful - this book has been hanging out on my coffee table when not in use!

This book is a party lovers DREAM! This book's crisp photos and detailed instructions make the party ideas come to life! I can not wait to try some of the many easy to follow recipes inside. Katie did an outstanding job on this book and it is clear how much time and effort went into it. Well worth every penny! - Allyson Burns

Katie Jacobs’ book is absolutely lovely! I spent a rainy Saturday with it & it made my day. The party ideas are gorgeous and the recipes are do-able. I’m so glad “So Much To Celebrate” came out in time for Mother’s Day! I plan to buy one for my Mama, sister-in-law, aunt, cousins...

I LOVE this book! The pictures are gorgeous and her recipes look delicious! I can't wait to try the humming bird cake for Easter 😋

If you love to have parties in your home, you will enjoy this beautiful book subtitled "Entertaining the Ones You Love the Whole Year Through". Katie Jacobs is described as a stylist, photographer, graphic designer, and foodie. She wears all of those hats very well here.

Divided into celebrations by season, it is easy to look for ideas pertaining to each time of year. For instance, Spring begins with a Fairy Tale Fern White Linen Luncheon, contains a Mother's Day Tea Party, and ends with Breakfast: Brides Who Brunch. Summer begins with a July Pool Party and ends with a Milkshake Social.

Fall contains an Autumn Tailgate, a Pie Party, and ends with a Harvest Picnic. Winter starts out with a Gingerbread House Decorating Party and has ideas for grown up parties such as a Cookies and Cocktails theme.

Each season contains a menu and recipes and a Recipe Index is found in the back of the book. This is one of those books that you really need to click on the "Look Inside" feature at the Amazon page and do just that... look inside! Gorgeous. Highly recommended for those who love to show hospitality.

An absolutely delightful and beautiful book, So Much to Celebrate, is a wonderful addition to any personal library!

I just adore how this book is organized and put together according to the season: winter, spring, summer, autumn. For each season, there are ideas for parties and get-togethers, decoration inspiration and so many recipes. As I mentioned above, this book is just beautiful, completely stunning! It would make a perfect coffee table book to just look at as well as inspire you to actually put the ideas to use from the book. You can't close this book without being inspired to bake something tasty, throw a gorgeous picnic or create some lovely decorations. The photographs in this book are just remarkably marvellous!

I received a copy of this book from BookLook Bloggers in return for an honest review. All thoughts, ramblings and opinions are my own. I am so excited to have this book as a new addition to my bookshelves, and look forward to using it and getting inspiration from it for years to come! Highly recommended!
