Farm Wedding

Here are some images from a wedding last weekend at a local private farm.

Guests found their escort cards creatively tied to an apple tree near the ceremony, and they were greeted with Freshly Brewed Iced Tea and Lavendar Lemonade set in front of a quaint red farm shed.

After a cocktail hour on the front lawn guests were ushered into a fully floored 40x100 pole tent set inside of a horse ring. The lush surroundings of the wooded property were drawn inside the tent by the use of small trees adorning the centerpoles. This touch, along with umbrella bee lighting, brought the high ceiling of the tent to a comfortable, intimate level.

Another creative touch under this beautiful tent was the hanging chalk boards detailing the plated dinner options. This rustic chic touch was pretty, functional, and will be a really fun keepsake for the B+G.

Four Weddings Win

Emily's recently catered a wedding for a lovely couple, Marisol and John, which was filmed for TLC's reality show Four Weddings. Marisol,who competed amongst four brides for the "best wedding" tied to win an exotic honeymoon!

We are so happy that our food, one of the very important criteria for the bride judges, received rave reviews. When the show aired on May 6th we watched on the edge of our seats, cheering when John stepped out of the secret winners limo with a rose for his bride.

Marisol and John's wedding was on February 12th 2011, Valentine's Day weekend. Their reception was held at Crossroads Theater in New Brunswick, NJ. As guests arrived, they found their "theater ticket" escort cards, and then moved along to cocktail hour on the theater's stage. The lighting specialist at Crossroads cast an image of the bride and groom's names and wedding date on the theater curtain, and the candlelight, music, festive bars, and of course delicious butlered hors d'oeuvre created an ultra chic lounge-like ambiance.

Details from a garden chic Friday wedding in Princeton:

Grey, white and burlap fabrics, paired with gorgeous blush roses, peonies and spring green ferns made for a pretty, and very crisp table scape at this wedding.

Also fun and unique was our bride's use of antique shutters as escort card holders.

The organic design of buttercream ribbons on the wedding cake helped draw together another garden element. The fantasy flower on the top is made out of real sugar! And after enjoying the cake's pretty design, guests enjoyed the surprisingly vibrant red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting inside.

Signage: a practical and adorable touch at a local farm wedding last weekend.

This pretty, painted sign nailed to a mature treee off of our client's driveway pointed guests towards a cocktail hour on the back lawn of a gorgeous farm property. "Mint Limeade Cooler" made with mint tea infused vodka and agave awaited guests at the bar, along with a wide variety of delish passed hors d'eouvre.

Letting guests know where their first, very important stop is when they arrive on a private property is a nice idea. And brides.....have fun with your sign designs, make them personal and unique, like your special day!
