Catering Edition: The Late Night Snack

A catering craze is sweeping the bridal nation as more and more brides choose to offer late night snacks at their wedding receptions. These treats are for the newly weds who choose to party on into the night with their guests - now keep in mind not everyone at the reception will stay for the late night celebration. It will often be the younger generation with a few aunts and uncles seeking out their wild side. This is a perfect place to add a littler personalization to the wedding day! These treats should not only be tasty but a representation of the favorite things of the bride and groom and are generally served one hour prior to the newly wed send off.

The late night snacks tend to be sweet or salty treats and often of the fast food variety. These treats will serve as a little energy boost to revive the guests and keep the celebration powering on. While these snacks are simple you can still serve them in style by bringing in special vendors just for this sweet treat such as McDonalds hamburgers or Dunkin Donuts. While these are not your typical run of the mill wedding vendors they provide delicious food that will curve your guests late night wedding munchies.

Featured below are a few of our favorite late night snack ideas:

Ashlee & Rick

Ashlee and Rick's Rehearsal Dinner Party was held atop the 50th floor at the beautiful Devon Tower. It was a perfectly clear evening and you could see for miles! We were thrilled to design their special evening with love and laughter. They chose a romantic color scheme of silver and white with hints of navy blue......It was stunning!

Everything Flowers - Summer Edition


We mentioned in part one of the Everything Flowers blog how important it is to buy the flowers that are in season. Summer is the season of sunshine and hot days spent near the water or finding adventures with friends, so it only makes sense that summer flowers would be vibrant and bold color tones. These bright color tones match the sunny season to perfection and really make a statement.

SUMMER

  Roses
  Gerber (daises)
  Poppy
  Sunflower
 Hydrangea
  Belles of Ireland
 Dahila
 Lisianthus
 Mums

 various tropical flowers 


Summer is the season of bright and bold colors. When designing the summer bridal bouquet of your dreams keep in mind that you will be wanting vibrant yellows, pinks, reds, and greens. Another idea to keep in mind is to ask your florist about "filler flowers" that are in season. These "filler flowers" help add volume to bouquets and floral arrangements without adding cost.

Featured below are a few examples of our favorite summer floral arrangements.
