Bowled Over

With her hands in everything on the day of the big event, the star insisted upon putting the finishing touches on the tables. Bowls were carefully set by the soup lover who writes in her book, "I had my first bowl of gazpacho when I was 15 in Spain, and the impression it made was a lasting one."

Pressure Cooker

When Martha Stewart and Mario Batali attend your dinner, you know you’ve got to deliver. Other impressive guests included husband Chris Martin, BFF Jay-Z, Cameron Diaz and Gwyneth’s mother, Blythe Danner.

Good Eats

The GOOP goddess treated her guests to a menu that included arugula salad, pappardelle pasta with duck ragu and broccoli rabe, followed by a sweet delight of pecan butterballs. (Of course, all of the recipes came straight from her book.)
