This enchanting gathering will take place at the historic WDC building, located at 802 Margaret Place, right here in Shreveport.

The fashion show will be the perfect showcase of style, featuring stunning apparel provided by The Enchanted Garden. Attendees can expect to see a variety of looks that celebrate all seasons, making it not just a fashion statement, but a celebration of creativity and artistry in the world of fashion. It’s a perfect opportunity to find some inspiration for your own wardrobe!

A Tasty Affair

What’s a garden party without delicious food? Fear not, as the culinary delights will be catered by the talented Chef Cindy Gleason Johnson of Southern Faire. Known for her ability to create mouth-watering dishes that highlight local flavors, she is sure to impress your taste buds while you sip on refreshing beverages and enjoy the ambiance.

Dress to Impress!

For those planning to attend, garden party attire is highly encouraged, and don’t forget to bring your favorite hat! Whether it’s a charming sunhat or a classic wide-brimmed creation, wearing a hat is all part of the fun and flair of a proper garden party. It’s a chance to express your personal style while immersed in the beauty of the outdoors.

Exciting Extras

To make the day even more exciting, there will be fantastic door prizes up for grabs, adding that element of thrill to the event. And for those who love a good bargain, a silent auction will also take place, featuring a variety of donated items that you won’t want to miss. Proceeds from both the door prizes and the auction will benefit the WDC, ensuring that this important club can continue its mission of supporting women and education in our community.
