We hosted some fabulously detailed weddings throughout the month of September and want to share some of our favorite pieces of their perfectly orchestrated events. Now I could write a novel about each one, but I’ll do my best to keep it short ;)
Alisa & Jim
Everything about this wedding screamed Alisa & Jim!! My favorite was the homemade BBQ sauce that her sweet dad is famous for. They were the perfect party favor in mini mason jars and tied with twine.
Therese & Jess
Oh the food… YUM! They had a fun and unique spread of appetizers to greet their guests after the ceremony. Assortments of Spiced Nuts & Flavored Popcorns were wrapped up in decorative blue cones to match her Royal & White wedding!
Judi & Sean
The cocktail! Judi had the perfect drink (and snack) waiting for her guests at the bar… a Cotton Candy Martini! Here’s the recipe:
1) Cotton Candy
2) 1 oz of Sky Vodka
3) 1 oz of Sprite
4) ½ oz of Triple Sec
5) 1/8 oz Grenadine
a. Shake & Chill
b. Pour over the cotton candy in the martini glass and watch it turn into a beautiful pink drink!
Danielle & Adam
Event coordinator by trade, Danielle made sure that everything was a true reflection of her and Adam and showcased a perfect example of what a classic hill country weekend wedding should be. The food was out of this world and hand selected by the fabulous couple:
Passed Appetizer: Spicy Herb Grilled Shrimp Skewers
Vegan Avocado Gazpacho Shooters with Parmesan Toasts
Fried Mac & Cheese Balls
Stationary Appetizers: Assortment of Veggies with Hummus
Hot Spinach, Artichoke, & 5 Cheese Spread
Bruschetta Bar with sides including Pesto, Goat cheese, Tapenade, Sundried Tomato, Parmesan, & Roasted garlic
Main Course: Balsamic & Sage Chicken
Mahi Mahi with Hazelnut Vinaigrette
Pasta bar include Garlic Infused Penne Pasta with fresh Herbs, Pesto, Creamy Alfredo, & Oven Roasted Veggies
Roasted New Potatoes with Rosemary & Garlic
Spinach Salad with Dried Cherries, Goat Cheese, Caramelized Onions & Balsamic Vinaigrette
Cheddar Biscuits
Jessica & Jon
Two things… her place setting and her hair piece! I love the detail in her place setting; a napkin really can add that extra pop!
She also (unfortunately) left her veil at home, but had spotted an antique brooch in one of our cabinets. She fell in love with it and it became the perfect substitute (and her something borrowed!)! Also added that extra little bit of sparkle that every girl loves ;)
Aryn & Jacob
Aryn and her team of fabulous coordinators have been working on every last detail for months. From the food, to the linens, and to the signage placed around the property. The final product was a masterpiece!
They also created a menu based on their roots, American and Cajun, tossed in a little Tex-Mex, and it was A-mazing! Guests could take anything from Chili Con Queso, Homemade Guacamole Salad, Angus Beef Sliders with a tiny American flag, Shrimp Etouffee, Red Beans & Sausage, Chicken Tenders, and sooo much more. Let’s just say no one left hungry!
Elizabeth & Aaron
COLOR, COLOR, COLOR! Paper lanterns, parasols, wild flowers, and satin fabrics filled the Garden Ballroom with vibrant colors. The table linens were your classic white, which made each and every piece stand out beautifully!
The next morning they invited many of their guests back for a tasty brunch. I have always loved when couples do this because I think it’s such a personal way to say thank you to your guests.
Robin & Ryan
DIY fabulousness! Yes, fabulousness is now a word and still doesn’t begin to describe how creative Robin is. I’ll have to just let the pictures speak for themselves on this one, but know that she designed and created everything herself.
Doesn’t this just make you want to take a deep breath and relax on our front porch?!
September was such an exciting month and we are honored to have been a part of each of these weddings. You are all beautiful couples with caring, sweet, and supportive families. Thank you so very much for choosing to share your special day with us.
CONGRATS!!!
