Two close friends celebrated their wedding with a private dinner at our house. We were thrilled to be part of the celebration- Kate Headley documented, there are so many good photos it was hard to choose!
This spring friend and colleague Anne Book contacted me on Wednesday asking if I could host a celebration following her vows on Saturday (in three days). Happily I did not have an event and was thrilled to be a part of her special day. On Friday, the day before her ceremony plans became complicated and we decided to shift and have the ceremony as well as the planned celebration at my home/studio. We cooked, made a wedding cake and flowered. Lucky for everyone Kate Headley documented.
Earlier this month we had the honor of hosting another wedding at our Home Restaurant. This was a lunch–– many but not all of the guests were vegan–– as a result we designed a menu with some passing meat/fish/poultry items and once seated all vegan.
I love assisting with all aspects of this joyous events in this case from menu, flowers, chuppah, wine selection…. We have another wedding scheduled for this spring and are very much looking forward to it.
