Wedded Bliss.

Here are some snapshots from a recent wedding. The bride chose to do a cookie bar for her guests alongside the buffet. It was a total hit. I watched some guests come back 4 times. I even saw one person put 13 (yes. THIRTEEN) desserts on one tiny plate (because the bag wouldn't hold enough :). She also chose to do mini cupcakes in place of a wedding cake. They looked amazing and 400 cupcakes were gone in a matter of minutes. Mmmm. Sweet wedded bliss!









She had 8 different kinds of cookies. Aside from the flavors pictured, she also had puffed rice treats, sugar cookies with fresh whipped vanilla buttercream, snickerdoodles, and classic chocolate chip. And her cupcakes were all chocolate cake, with chocolate ganache filled with pistachio cream rolled in crushed pistachios, vanilla buttercream topped with a soft sour cream sugar cookie in a peppermint glaze, cream cheese frosting rolled in vanilla tinted coconut, and a simple almond glazed. The colors looked AMAZING and everything turned out supremely "sweet".

All of these amazing photos were graciously given to me by the very talented Adilfa Ford at Don Polo Photography. Check out her site. She's been in the business for years and she is amazing. And so spunky and nice.

Kaycee Stroh Wedding

I am finally able to share a couple of pictures from Kaycee's wedding in January! She chose to do a Cookie Bar for her favor. The guests were invited to fill a glassine bag with a selection of homemade cookies and then they sealed the bag with a sticker that was printed with Kaycee and Ben's monogram. This was so much fun for the guests, and was the perfect end to the night as they waited for the valet to bring their cars...



And as a side note, the cookies that Ben and Kaycee chose were: Sugar cookies with buttercream frosting, peanut butter brownies, chocolate cake cookies, chocolate chip cookies, snickerdoodles, mexican wedding cakes, puffed rice treats with a chocolate drizzle, and oatmeal with white chocolate and cranberries. She had cranberries with her arrangements, so we added cranberries to one of the cookies and we also had cranberries as fillers in the jars. It turned out great and it was so much fun!

Grand America Bridal Show

Today I did my first Bridal Show and it was AMAZING! I had so much fun. I also had so much nervous energy that I didn't stop moving or talking all day long. But it was great.

My wonderful mom came and helped me out. We were on our feet from 6:30 this morning until, well, what time is it now? Midnight. What a fun and full day! Thanks mom!
