The G.R.I.T.S. Dinner: Where Southern Grace Meets Boss Babe Energy
Some nights are just dinner. Others are an occasion.
The G.R.I.T.S. Dinner—short for Girls Raised in the South—isn’t just an event, it’s a movement wrapped in pearls, poured over ice, and topped with Southern charm. On Friday, May 16, from 7:00 to 9:00 PM, we’re inviting all our belles and bold babes to an unforgettable Girl Dinner unlike any other: a hat & tea-themed celebration of sisterhood, storytelling, and unapologetic self-expression.
A Toast to Southern Women: Strong, Soft & Everything in Between
You don’t have to be born below the Mason-Dixon line to carry Southern spirit. Southern is a mindset—a delicious blend of tradition and edge, hospitality and hustle. The G.R.I.T.S. Dinner celebrates the divine duality of the modern Southern woman. She’s the one who hosts brunch with homemade biscuits and negotiates contracts in heels. She knows when to be polite and when to take up space. She’s a soft place to land with steel in her spine.
This evening is for her. For you.
The Setting: Sweet Tea & Storytelling
Set against a backdrop of soft florals, rich textures, and dim, honey-lit glow, the dinner captures the kind of warmth that only comes from being surrounded by powerful women who just get it. Think Southern garden party meets downtown glam—a place where teacups are spiked, and conversation flows as easily as the cocktails.
And about those cocktails...
Teatails, but Make It Femme
In collaboration with [S.K. Tea & Coffee], we’re introducing a menu of "Teatails"—cocktails infused with our signature Southern teas. From peach-infused spritzes to floral-forward sips, each drink is crafted with care and a nod to our roots. It’s sweet, it’s bold, it’s giving belle of the ball and CEO of the boardroom.
The Menu: Babe Bites With a Southern Twist
Expect an indulgent spread of small plates inspired by classic Southern flavors, elevated for the modern palette. From deviled eggs with caviar to bite-sized chicken & waffle sliders, we’re serving comfort food with couture energy. It’s not just dinner—it’s a curated experience that feeds the soul as much as the appetite.
Dress Code: Southern Chic, With a Side of Extra
This is your moment to show out in your finest hat, your flyest fascinator, or that dreamy garden dress that’s been waiting for the right night. We’re talking big energy, soft glamour, and unapologetic style. Whether you’re channeling Sunday best or cocktail hour goddess, we want to see you shine.
What Makes a Girl Dinner Special?
It’s more than the drinks, more than the bites—Girl Dinner is a vibe. It’s about showing up exactly as you are and being celebrated for it. It’s about deep belly laughs, unfiltered conversations, affirmations over appetizers, and being surrounded by a community that feels like home. This dinner is designed for connection—a space where the small talk fades and the real talk flows.
The Vibe: Feminine, Fabulous, and Fierce
At The G.R.I.T.S. Dinner, expect elegant ambiance, beautiful photo moments, and a soundtrack that makes you want to dance between courses. But above all, expect to feel seen. Every detail is curated to honor the beauty, brilliance, and resilience of women who were raised to handle anything—with grace, grit, and a little bit of glitter.
Seats Are Limited, But the Love is Big
This is an intimate gathering designed to make every guest feel like the guest of honor. That means space is limited—but the energy? Infinite.
Whether you're a Georgia peach, a Carolina belle, a Gulf Coast glamazon, or simply a lover of soulful spaces and femme connection, this dinner is for you.
Come sip with the GRITS. We’ll save you a seat.
