Reese Witherspoon’s recipe for a successful party includes a few to-be-expected elements — but the thing she says you can do without, well that’s a bigger surprise.
“Great drinks and good music are all you need,” the Big Little Lies actress tells Martha Stewart Weddings’ editor-at-large, Darcy Miller. “Even if the food is bad! If the music is good and the drinks are flowing, everyone is happy.”
The lifestyle entrepreneur founder, 41, hosts her fair share of parties — most often “in the backyard with barbecue” — that channel her southern roots. Her favorite soiree that she’s put together, though, was for her 40th birthday.

Blake Lively took to Instagram on Tuesday to share a picture of frosted cookies that feature lyrics by Taylor Swift and Beyoncé - one reads "Haters gonna hate" while another says "Love me like Xo." Blake's conversation cookies are featured on her site, Preserve, and it's safe to say that Taylor, an enthusiastic baker herself, would appreciate the sweets - and, of course, so would Blake's friend Beyoncé. So what inspired these pop culture treats? In her caption, Blake explained that she was set to talk to Darcy Miller on Martha Stewart Radio, writing, "Time to start thinking of fun Vday ideas to share!" Darcy also posted a photo showing lettered chocolates, saying the pair would be discussing Blake's Valentine's Day favorites from Preserve. Guess we can add Blake's creative cooking to the reasons why she and Ryan Reynolds will be great parents! The new mom has been keeping a...

Did newlyweds Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden jump on a new weekday wedding trend? Party rental trucks, flowers and a tent arrived Monday at the couple's Los Angeles home, where the Annie star, 42, married the Good Charlotte front man, 35, in an intimate ceremony. Instead of holding their star-studded nuptials - guests included Drew Barrymore, Joel Madden and Gwyneth Paltrow - on a more traditional weekend night, the actress and her rocker husband opted for a late Monday evening affair, and stocked the weekend full of pre-wedding celebrations. The newlyweds are not the only Hollywood couple to opt for a Monday wedding.

Morris County, the feature length anthology film directed by Matthew Garrett is not easy to categorize - and that is one of its strengths. It's a drama - but the stories venture into such dark, bitter, raw, and rattling territory, the film is custom built more for horror fans than fans of conventional dramas. At the same time, horror fans who gravitate toward a typical mainstream flavor of the genre may find Morris County a little too daring, somber, and unflinching for their tastes. What I admire most about the film is that it refuses to use the cookie cutter. Instead, writer/director Garrett let the film evolve into its own unique beast - and for that, at the very least, Morris County deserves your attention.

Matthew Garrett is a director who hit the ground running with his first short film Ellie (2006), an unsettling movie that gathered much praise when it made the film festival rounds. His second film, the suspenseful and enigmatic Beating Hearts (2010), won Best Short Film at the Boston Underground Film Festival before it found a home here at FEARnet (click here to watch it). Garrett's first feature film is an anthology called Morris County, slated for release later this year. Garrett kindly took some time to discuss with FEARnet his past, present, and future as a film director. FEARnet: What inspired the story of your first film, Ellie? Garrett: It's difficult to discuss the news story that inspired the film without giving away part of the ending, but I will say that the themes of self-destruction, sexual abuse, and the inherent hypocrisy of organized religion were definitely on my mind. What events...

The setting, the dress, the decorations - Blake Lively knew exactly what she wanted, in intimate detail, for her wedding last month to Ryan Reynolds. "She had pages and pages of pictures. She knew everything that she wanted from the very beginning to the very end," wedding planner Tara Guérard told People Monday at the Martha Stewart Weddings Bridal Fashion Week party in New York. "The problem was she had 250 photos, and she wanted all those elements in her wedding," Guérard added. The results, though, were stunning. "[From] simple, elegant flowers to comfortable seating, she wanted the wedding to be very family and friend-oriented,...
