Martha Stewart is partnering with Yaamava Resort & Casino to deliver a resortwide holiday installation called Martha's Forest of Wonder, the property said, and she will be the guest of honor at a special tree lighting and a ticketed Legends Dinner. The resort said Stewart helped design the decor and contributed pieces inspired by her personal collection for a fully immersive presentation.

The resort said the tree lighting will be an invite only ceremony with complimentary holiday treats for Club Serrano members while supplies last. The public will have access to the full experience immediately following the lighting, the resort said. The Legends Dinner is ticketed and will feature a prix fixe menu Stewart personally curated with an intimate conversation moderated by Jay Leno.

Kenji Hall, General Manager of Yaamava Resort & Casino at San Manuel, said the collaboration will bring "beauty, wonder, and the spirit of the season" to guests. Martha Stewart said she was "thrilled to partner with Yaamava' to create a holiday experience that captures the beauty, warmth and wonder of the season."

The installation will span the property and use a curated palette of brass, cranberry, forest green, pearl white, sage green and snow, the resort said. Signature moments will include The Great Woodland Wreath framed by freestanding bears and trees, The Mushroom Grove near the high limit table games area, Guardians of the Woodland at the high limit slots entrance, and Martha's Sleigh Ride featuring Stewart's personal sleigh.
