Thank you to our food sponsor

Newport Beach’s premier service for all things cheese! Alyssa Paine built Newport Charcuterie around her love and passion for art, design, but most importantly, food. “Charcuterie boards have always been my go-to when it came to gatherings and special occasions. I am very snack focused, so this to me, is truly the perfect combination. I have always loved hosting parties, and getting all of my people together, and what better way to connect than through food, wine, and laughter.”

Thank you to our venue host
