Wedding Inspiration

There's Nothing Like Spending This Season Sharing Food And Drinks, Laughter And Memories With Those You Love.

We Held Our Wedding At A Private Residence On The Sacramento River. We Lucked Out Finding A Place That Would Allow Us To Have Our Wedding There. It Worked Great Because We Had Many Out Of Town/state Friends That Were Able To Stay With Us The Days Leading Up To The Wedding. We Were Able To Spend So Much More Time With Our Bridal Party And Made Amazing Memories Before Our Big Day! We Were Inspired To Throw A Party For Our Friends And Family For Our Wedding. We Wanted Our Guests To Enjoy The Environment, Eat Delicious Food, Dance To Great Music. Kari’s Favorite Memory From Our Big Day Is Dancing With Me (miranda). The Dj Was Playing So Many Great Songs! The Mixture Of The Perfect Outdoor Temperature, The Sun Setting Beautifully And Being Completely Surrounded By Love Made For Some Unforgettable Moments. My Favorite Memory Is When Kari Changed Out Of Her Dress And Into Her Power Suit And Made A Grand Entrance. I Had To Pick My Jaw Up Off Of The Floor. She Looked Amazing! If You’re Planning A Wedding Now, Hire A Wedding Coordinator. It Is Worth Every Single Penny. We Worked With Events By Wise Out Of Woodland, Ca. Shari And Dani Are Amazing At What They Do. Many Things Happened The Day Of The Wedding That We Didn’t Know About Until The Following Day. We Were Truly Able To Sit Back And Relax On Our Wedding Day. It Was Perfect. We’re Still Gushing About How Magical It Was And How Beautifully Our Friends Showed Up For Us. Another One Of Our Favorite Memories Is Of You! You Danced With Us, You Drank A Beer With Us, You Cried Many Happy Tears. It Was Amazing Working With You And I’m Happy You Were Able To Have A Bit Of Fun Too.

Chicago!!!!!!!! I See What You Are Doing Here.... You Are Trying To Turn This Island Girl Here Into A City Girl With Your Good Food, Kind People, Amazing Skyline, And My Pretty Friends As Well! I See What You Are Trying To Do! And It’s Working!! Oh, And Alex, You Got Some Explaining To Do!!!????????????

When Your Wedding Venue Is A Swanky Restaurant, You'll Definitely Want To Show It Off In Your Guestbook Design! (we Are This Close To Booking A Reservation Here, Because Yes We Totally Looked Up The Menu And Wow Are We Jealous Of All The Guests Who Enjoyed Their Delicious Food!) ????⁠⠀

No Special Event Is Complete Without Delicious Food And Señor Pepe's Paella Catering Is Proud To Take Care Of That For You. We Cook Authentic Spanish Paella Through Out The State Of Florida. Paella Is A Classic Spanish Dish That Originates In Valencia, Spain. Paella Is Comprised Of Rice, Saffron, Paprika, Sofrito And A Variety Of Meats, Shellfish And Vegetables. Paella Is Cooked Outside Over An Open Fire In A Paella Pan. This Is The Paella De Marisco (seafood Paella) With Lobster Tails Prepared On Site And Served Buffet Style With A Tossed Green Salad, Dinner Rolls And Butter.

Who Doesn't Love A Good Snapchat Filter? Just Think, Your Wedding Day Could Include Your Own Custom Filter For Your Guests To Have Fun With All Night! So They're Basically Taking Pictures With You, Even When You're Busy Enjoying All The Delicious Foods (and You're So Not Picture Ready)! ????⁠⠀

The Lowdown On Honeymoon In Madrid: What To Buy In Madrid Leather Goods, Clothes, And Food! What To Eat In Madrid It Will Come As No Surprise That Tapas Is The Main Thoroughfare In Madrid. Although They Do Have A Unique Speciality In The Bocadillo De Calamares [ A Calamari Sandwich]. Do It Like The Locals Do At Stand Up Only Tapas Joints, Eat The One Thing Everyone Else Is Eating And Then Move On. Hint: If There Are Pictures Of The Food On The Menu Its Not A Traditional Place! What To See In Madrid The Botanic Gardens And Retiro Park Are A Must For A Outdoorsy Among You. Retiro Park Has A Man Made Lake Where Honeymooners Can Rent A Little Row Boat, How Freaking Romantic! For Me There Is Nothing Worse Than A Travel Guide That Says 'get Lost' On The Winding Streets Of Madrid, (like Every Single Venice Blog Post Out There!) But What I Will Say Is That Wandering Up And Down The Lanes Of Old Madrid Is Pretty Fab, And Stumbling On Some New Tapas Places, Or Admiring The Mixed Architecture (flemish, Dutch, Spanish And French To Name A Few) Is Pretty Nice. What To Do In Madrid Oh Of Course No Visit To Madrid Would Be Complete Without Stopping At The Prado Museum Or The Royal Palace. Hint: Book Tickets In Advance To Avoid The Queues. What To Drink In Madrid Vermouth! Also Known As Martini Is The Drink Of Choice For Many Madrians. If That's Not Your Bag, Relax With Your New Husband A Cheers To Married Life With A Glass Of Tinto De Veranno (like Sangria) And Of-course The Odd Splash Of Spanish Red Wine.

Creating Memories With Sparklers At Your Wedding! I Recently Received An E-mail From A Bride In North Texas. Her Grandmother Went Through The Sparkler Tunnel 5 Times Before They Made It Out To Start Their Grand Exit. Her Grandmother Kept Apologizing For Going Through So Many Times. But She Said She Hasn’t Done Them Since She Was A Kid And Had So Much Fun With The Sparklers! It Made Her So Happy To See Her Grandmother And Other Guests Having A Fabulous Time At Her Wedding. This Brought Back Memories From My Childhood And How There Is Something So Nostalgic About Holding A Lit Sparkler. For Me It Brings Back Memories Of A Fun, Care-free Time When Family Was All Gathered Together To Celebrate Holidays. We Always Had The Traditional Bbq With Hamburgers, Hot Dogs, Potato Salad, Grilled Corn On The Cob And Everyone Enjoyed Eating Fresh, Cold Watermelon On Those Hot Days While The Food Was Being Prepared. Kids Running Around And Playing In The Sprinklers While The Adults Listened To Music And Played Horseshoes In Between Cooking. Once The Homemade Ice Cream And Apple Pie Were Brought Out For Dessert, We Knew The Fireworks Would Soon Begin. The Sparklers Always Came Out First And Excitement Filled The Air As We Waited Patiently For Our Sparkler. Reading Her Sweet E-mail Brought Back All Of My Memories From My Childhood. It Made Me Smile Because I Knew Exactly What Her Grandmother Was Feeling. I Am So Glad That Sparklers Are Now A Part Of Such An Important Day! The Memories Will Create A Lasting Impression On So Many People. One Day They Too Will Hold A Sparkler In Their Hand And Those Memories Will Come Flooding Back Bringing A Smile To Their Face As Well!
