One of my most favorite things....(I sound like Martha) is a bride with some personality,heritage, roots and guts! I found all of those when I started working with Carrie...She hada warm personality and a smile that lights up the room. She also some distinct visions about her weddingday, but needed some help transforming and bringing them come alive. A few things were especially important to her; food,her Japanese and Spanish heritage and having fun! We combined all of those in what I call a super wedding success; weather and all!The entire menu reflected a harmonious blend of cultural deliciousness form Gyoza dumplings to chorizo empanadas, an oriental greens fieldsalad and a duet of filet and mahi. The menu cravings were finished off with a Columbian coffee station and a dessert buffet to satisfy all.The vibrant decor scheme of red and chocolate brown was classic in representing our japanese flair of hand painted parasols that effortlessly hung fromthe clear tent ceilings. The colors were brought tabletop with a Chocolate hempstead cloth and finished with combinations of red and burgundyorchids, roses and mums. We used the custom design from the invitation and brought it forth on our table numbers and our favor donation to the Tommy Lacayo Scholarship Fund. A mesh of reggae band classics and DJ hits were pumping the speakers all night....
