Welcoming Veronica Beard to Charlotte

The Peachy Team was honored to be included in the Grand Opening celebration events for the new Veronica Beard store at Phillips Place in Charlotte. A beautiful luncheon celebrating the opening was hosted on the Terrace at The Duke Mansion last week.

Gorgeous floral arrangements by Laura Hughes of City Stems lined the long table, and included take-away potted orchids, ferns and topiaries for each guest. Place cards tucked into the terracotta pots were hand painted by local watercolor artist, Champagne Maker. Photographer Jonathan Elyea was on hand to capture the event.
