After the wedding and reception the newlyweds came back to our house to change and grab a bite to eat before leaving for their honeymoon....
...so I decided to decorate...
and cook...
and sparkle up their send off!
I made pom poms, bows, banners and tags, strung some lights and paper lanterns, bought some white mums in different sizes and put them on tables and around the yard and tied everything up in white tulle.
I tried to keep the food simple and made everything the day ahead. I set out all the serving bowls and platters so that they were ready and could be quickly filled when we returned.
Our Menu:
Honey Ham
Turkey
Rolls
Homemade Honey Mustard
Assorted cheese tray
Roll-up Sandwiches
Scalloped Potatoes
Fruit Salad
Pasta Salad
Rice Salad
Cheesecake
Blackberry Cobblers
Mini Brownies
Lemon Cookies
A little DIY inspiration!
Your menu/food looks delicious. I really got a hoot out of the pretzels 'tying the knot'. Clever!! All in all a very nice send off.
ReplyDeleteWonderful wedding that couldn't have been that wonderful without your guiding hand putting the finishing touches on the side events.
