๐ท White Table Evening โ A Night to Remember
Last Thursday, Ingham Clark Lodge welcomed friends and family to a heartwarming White Table & Entertainment Evening in Wallingford. While our usual photographers Scoop Cottrell and Andie Lovell couldnโt be with us this time, the spirit of the night was beautifully captured in memory and music ( and almost no photos).
๐ค One of the highlights of the evening was a stunning live duet performance by Alexandre Bruscato and his daughter Beatrizโa touching set of covers that had the whole room enchanted. Thankfully, the performance was recorded and will be shared soonโdonโt miss it!
๐ฒ Guests enjoyed a delicious meal, meaningful conversation, and a wonderful community atmosphere. Special thanks to everyone who helped organize the evening, and to those who sent their appreciation afterward. Mike, George, Gillian, and others shared kind words that truly reflect the joy of the evening.
๐ The surprise flowers for Pat Heslop were a lovely touch to round off a perfect night.
Thank you all for being part of this memorable occasion.
