18th Questers' Luncheon

On Saturday I, along with a group of friends, attended the Mah-Nah-Be-Zee Questers' Chapter 198 annual Tablescape luncheon. This was their 18th luncheon with fabulous tablescapes, and it gets better and larger every year.  I think they've just about reached their max capacity though.  The theme was 50 Shades of Color. The doors opened at 11:00 a.m., and I had one hour to photograph 58 tablescapes to share with you.  Mah-Nah-Be-Zee is the Indian name given to Detroit's Belle Isle, and translated it means "White Swan."  Yvonne Leslie, now deceased, started the luncheons, so they are now named in her honor.

I shared tablescape photos from their 2014 and 2015 luncheon, but I must not have gone in 2016. Since there were 58 tables, the photos will be shown in multiple posts.

I took a photo of my girlfriend, Linda [left], because she said she tried to dress in keeping with the theme, 50 Shades of Color.  ;-)  My girlfriend, Lori, right.

We were seated at table #2 - Oceans of Aqua, which happened to be the #1 winning table.
