HOSTED BY ASHLEIGH HAKES + TIFFANY FEDE
Two leaders. One intentionally held experience.
Ashleigh brings experience architecture, sound, facilitation, and production; Tiff brings energetic care, hospitality, ritual, and live transmission. Together, they shape each Embody Love Curation as one complete arc.
THE TRUTH OF WHERE YOU ARE
We carry recipes, gestures, silence, survival, humor, tenderness, harm, devotion, and unanswered questions.
01Many of us have no communal place to hold the beauty and complexity at the same time.
02Your family story may be beautiful, complicated, chosen, or unfinished.
03You want cultural care—not a costume version of sacred tradition.
04You want a dinner that nourishes relationship, not only the body.
THE REVERSAL
Remembrance does not require a perfect family story.
You may honor a beloved ancestor, chosen elder, teacher, place, lineage, or source of belonging—and choose what you carry forward.
THE PATHWAY
Bring a name. Bring a story. Bring no object at all.
Choice, cultural context, nourishment, sound, and remembrance make room for beauty and complexity at the same table.
Build the altar
Bring a photo, object, recipe, name—or choose no physical item at all.
Remember together
Move through reflection, meal, story, and quantum sound with choice throughout.
Carry it home
Collect personal objects and continue with a remembrance practice.
WHAT SUPPORT LOOKS LIKE
Structure strong enough to hold the work.
Community altar
Materials, guidance, and a respectful shared creation.
Mortality reflection
A consent-centered death meditation plus a grounding alternative.
Three-course meal
Menu, dietary process, and allergen information will be published before seats open.
Quantum sound
A closing activation and remembrance ritual.
LIMITED-SEAT DINNER PRICING
A full evening of food, remembrance, and sound.

What dietary needs can be accommodated?+
The actual menu, allergen information, deadline, and contact path will be published before seats open.
