Congratulations to the James Beard Award Finalists for 2025! 🥂 We welcome you to learn more about Best Chef: Midwest Nominee, Diane Moua, who gave Woodbury Magazine an inside look at her new endeavor, Diane's Place. When asked about her prior nominations, she says, “I don’t see myself like that at all. I own a business, and I’m working hard to make sure I can pay my staff. I still rotate from front of house to back of house, making sure everyone has what they need. How can I help them? How do I get them engaged and excited?” Read her story here: https://shorturl.at/9gWgB Learn more about the James Bear Award Restaurant and Chef Award Nominees and the Achievement Awards here: https://shorturl.at/IN9XE

Love Was in the Air at First Comes Love! Edina Magazine and 50th & France’s First Comes Love event was the perfect way to celebrate our inaugural Wedding Issue launch. From stunning 2025 wedding trends to an unforgettable fashion show led by Project Runway designer (and Edina native!) Christopher Straub, the evening was full of inspiration for couples, parents and wedding guests alike. A special highlight? The Golden Bachelor’s Leslie Fhima gracing the runway as one of the 55 models! A huge thank you to 50th & France, Rebecca Bell Sorensen and Anna Devine for creating this incredible event and to all the amazing vendors who showcased everything from gorgeous jewelry to honeymoon looks. And, of course, to everyone who joined us—we loved sharing this special day with you! #FirstComesLove #EdinaMagazine #50thandFrance #WeddingTrends2025
