One lovely young bride recently came to us with an unusual request. In honor of her late father, who was an avid fisherman, she wanted her wedding to be on a local lake at sunrise.
Wearing a lovely and simple chiffon dress, she approached her groom, she paused at the altar and tossed a single rose from her bouquet of mixed roses and wildflowers onto the glassy surface of the lake in a silent tribute to her dad.
To accommodate her guests, we arranged a brunch reception. Starting with champagne mimosas, bloody marys, screwdrivers, and many non-alcoholic offerings of fresh juices, coffees and teas. The guests were pleased with the menu offerings of fresh fruits, poached and scrambled eggs, bacon and sausages, pancakes and waffles as well as a wedding cake made of Krispy Kreme donuts. The buffet and guest tables were simply and elegantly decorated with wildflowers.
After the reception, guests were encouraged to relax in the shade of weeping willows or try their hands at fishing with cane poles we provided for their use.
It was a touching and lovely ceremony and a fun and unique reception.
