Thanksgiving is next week. Have you planned your meal or your table? I don’t know about you, but this holiday snuck up on me. I have some really easy time and money saving solutions for you this year. Last night I attended a wonderful holiday influencer event at the Enoteca Wine Room in Whole Foods Market Fair Lakes. This gorgeous tablescape was the first thing I saw when I walked in, a dinner table with items from Williams Sonoma. We drank wine, tasted Thanksgiving menu foods, and shared a lovely evening with some of the best DMV bloggers.
I want to replicate this gorgeous table with all the Thanksgiving items from Williams Sonoma. Not only do they carry dinnerware and everyday tablescape items, but they also have cookware, cutlery, small electrics, foods, bakeware, and seasonal products as well. The leather napkin rings and the Plymouth Turkey Toile dinnerware collection pictured above are both so festive for your holiday table. Our dinner was served on the Provisions dinner plates, where a set of 12 porcelain plates is only $47!
These vintage etched goblets felt so luxurious. At $41 for a set of four glasses they would make a great addition to any home.
Williams Sonoma has many other free services to offer their customers:
- Junior Chef Classes
- Date night cooking classes
- In home consultation for a party or for the WS Home furniture collection
- Menu planning for a party
- Help with timing for a party or a big holiday meal
- Private cooking classes
- Birthday party planning for kids in store or in your home
Maybe you cannot afford to buy all these Thanksgiving decorations for your table this year. An affordable solution might be to use regular large white dinner plates and put one small Thanksgiving themed plate on top. You could also try adding a few seasonal pieces to your collection each year, and in 5-10 years you will enjoy a full holiday collection. Now, you are ready for your big family celebration.
Thanksgiving made easy with a little help from Whole Foods Market
Your table is planned and your dinnerware is ready for your guests. Do you know how to make all 8 of the dishes pictured above? Cooking a huge meal can be very overwhelming. Don’t worry. Whole Foods has you covered. If you click here, you can visit the online website where you can place an order for a partial or full Thanksgiving dinner. You can also visit your store and reserve your holiday favorites. Let Whole Foods save you time, money, and energy. Prices for these dinners are very reasonable, the quality of the ingredients is very high, and the convenience of picking up all your holiday dishes at once is priceless. If you were to shop yourself and buy all the ingredients, cook the foods, and then serve them you would definitely spend much more money than these convenient packages. Remember, MORE PARTY, LESS PREP! Many Whole Foods locations are conveniently open on Thanksgiving Day for pickup of these dinner to go packages.
These five dinner options are the most popular:
- Traditional Turkey Dinner $89 for 6-8 people or $169 for 12-16 people: Uncooked oven ready turkey, turkey gravy, traditional sage stuffing, homestyle mashed potatoes, organic cranberry orange relish, and choice of two vegetables or homestyle casseroles
- Organic Turkey Dinner $99 for 6-8 people: Fully cooked organic turkey, organic country mashed potatoes, organic biscuit and mushroom stuffing, organic green bean casserole, organic harvest roasted vegetables, organic mushroom gravy, organic cranberry orange relish
- Turkey Dinner for 2: Fully cooked boneless turkey breast, traditional sage stuffing, homestyle mashed potatoes, green beans with shallots, turkey gravy, organic cranberry orange relish
- Vegan Dinner for 2or more: Gardein holiday roast, mashed potatoes with olive oil, vegan cornbread stuffing, green beans with shallots, organic mushroom gravy, organic cranberry orange relish
- Just the Sides Package: Homestyle mashed potatoes, traditional sage stuffing, choice of two vegetables or homestyle casseroles, organic cranberry orange relish and turkey gravy
Three important notes: Dinner number 1 above comes with a ready to COOK turkey as pictured below. For dinner #1 only, you must cook your turkey before serving it. It comes all wrapped up, seasoned, and ready to go into your own oven, no one will know you did not slave over the stove all day. Second note: if you make a purchase of a dinner before November 22nd, you will receive a coupon for $10 off an in store purchase of $75 or more. You can see in the photo above the exact sizes of the foods you will receive in one of these dinner packages. Third note: Pumpkin Pies are on sale two for $15. We tried both the pumpkin and apple pies last night and they were just like my Mom makes.
If you plan to cook your own Thanksgiving dinner, Whole Foods still wants to help you. Look at this holiday checklist so you do not forget any vital ingredients.
Disclosure: I have a partnership with Whole Foods Market and was compensated for my work, but all words and opinions are 100% my own.
What an amazing set up for Thanksgiving dinner!!! I love the plates they would be perfect for Thanksgiving dinners.
Aren’t these plates gorgeous! Any table would look awesome with a few of these goodies.
That looks like Heaven to me. I cook so much on Thanksgiving and Christmas, and it’s a huge hassle. Anything I can do to make life easier is always appreciated.
Right? Paying Whole Foods to make some of these dishes is such a great time saver! The prices are really low and the quality is so high.
Williams Sonoma is one of my favorite brands. Everything they have is just so chic and classy.
I agree with you Paula! Williams Sonoma is a great store to find some wonderful home decor.
Wow this is awesome. I love the organic option. You can’t beat this deal. I feel like my grocery bill would be more!!
This is such a great deal! Your organic food bill would be much higher. Plus, you save all the time and energy of shopping and cooking and cleaning!
Your tablescape is beautiful. I love how easy Wholefoods is making preparing Thanksgiving. The checklist is super helpful.
I am so glad you found this helpful! Happy thanksgiving!
I agree the table decor looks Fabulous! Love the colors. Whole Foods Thanksgiving is Delish. We are lucky to have 2 Whole Foods near and it’s very convenient!
Whole Foods is the best, honestly my favorite place to shop. Happy Thanksgiving, I hope you have a wonderful holiday.
Your holiday table looks amazing!! I was at Whole Foods the other day and saw some of their holiday food, it all looks yummy!!
We were able to sample everything on the holiday menu and it was incredibly delicious. Save time this year and let Whole Foods help you prepare.
I love your plan for Thanksgiving dinner. These are clever ideas.
thanks so much! I hope this helps you plan your holiday.
I love both stores you mentioned. We dont have a Whole Foods near us but I travel to one near Philly. This is a great spread you showcased here.
Whole Foods and Williams Sonoma are two of my favorite stores. I hope you have a happy Thanksgiving!
This is perfect for busy moms like me. I love that you can pre-order these items; saves you a lot of time especially when you don;t have time to shop.
These prices are so low and the quality so high, it really is a no-brainer that you should pre-order from Whole Foods Market.
Sounds like a great way to take all the hard work out of Thanksgiving dinner! And I love the table setting, such a festive way to enjoy your meal.
I think that Whole Foods really wants to help us enjoy our holiday more. Shopping and cooking and cleaning and serving is exhausting! We sometimes need a little helping hand.
I wish I had Whole Foods a bit closer to where I live. I have to drive a ways to get to one. All that food looks so good though!
I totally think Whole Foods Market is worth the drive! I am lucky that I have two stores about 15 minutes away. The food was amazing!
I would love to do this for Thanksgiving. I would rather spend the time with my family instead of cooking.
I totally agree Ann! I never get to spend time with my family if I am in the kitchen all day. This takes the stress right off of me!
I love your set up. I think if I hosted Thanksgiving at my house that I would opt for picking up the full meal at the store. It just seems easier to do it that way so that you can actually enjoy spending the day with family.
Right? Picking up a fully cooked meal and serving out sounds perfect to me! Plus, Whole Foods Market has the highest quality food around.
Your holiday table looks amazing! Whole Foods is my go to store, specially when I’m entertaining! Love going there!
Whole Foods is also my go to store, you can never go wrong there!
I love the checklist. I always forget something and no matter how many times I make a list, I still miss something. There is something wonderful about the vintage look of the table setting, makes me remember family.
Isn’t this checklist perfect? I think it would be great for any holiday.
Ooooo I just love Whole Foods!!! Looks like I’m going to have to swing by for all our holiday needs
Now you know where to shop for your Thanksgiving foods! Place an order in advance and get the coupon too!
This is so nice and simple! I have never heard of this and I’ve been in panic mode thinking of what to make but this helps so much. Thank you!
