The official Todi Mooers wedding thread - Page 3

I love the themed weddings. They seem like so much more fun than the regular formal church wedding. Working at a party rental store we are really getting a lot of wedding orders (May 19th seems to be the date of choice).

The ones that are fun for me are the themed weddings. One couple did a circus type theme, complete with churro warmer, pretzel warmer, popcorn machine and cotton candy machine. the colors were all bright and fun. I have a wedding comeing up that is a roaring 20's theme. The guys are wearing zoot siuts and hats.

Reading the first post, I was like 'oh-no! Spoilorz!!!'

Then I realized this was the wedding in Michigan that I'm not going to. Which reading the first post made me, and perhaps anyone with a pulse, ya know, want to.

Sigh.

No worries! I can't wait to see what this swanky couple cooks up for the LoT Reception!

Surely!

And, more you will have. Food. And flowers.

So... food. We're foodies. We like the food. I've already mentioned the food to be delivered to guests staying at the hotel. And the food being distributed at the theater.

Now, for the real food: the meal.

Our reception location does the catering, and their plated-dinner offerings are super limited for vegetarian needs, so we've selected a buffet menu. The (sort of?) unfortunate flip side of the buffet is that you have to select, like, five billion options. So ours will include the following:

-Salmon with dill sauce
-Chicken marsala
-Two types of tamales (green corn and goat cheese) from our favorite gourmet tamale company, Corn Maiden.
-Garlic and chive redskin potatoes
-Steamed broccoli flowerets
-Corn
-Mixed greens salad
-Fresh fruit
-Beefsteak tomatoes with mozzarella and pesto
-Button mushrooms with olive oil
-Relish tray
-Fresh rolls

How these people are going to be able to dance after that meal, I just don't know. Not to mention dessert.

Zingermann's in Ann Arbor (the best deli outside of NYC) will be doing our cake. We ordered a three-layer cake with extra sheet cake in order to stick within our budget. They offer different flavored layers for no extra charge, so we've selected four:

-Vanilla bean pound cake with lemon curd and blackberry preserves
-Chocolate sour cream cake with white chocolate buttercream
-Almond pound cake with mocha buttercream (my favorite!)
-Banana cake with buttercream-cheese

They will decorate with our wedding flowers.

Yellow roses:

Stephanotis:

Red gerbera daisies:

Hypericum berries:

This will be my bouquet, with the addition of pearl centers in the stephanotis:

It all looks beautiful.

The menu sounds delicious, with plenty for the vegitarians to eat too. The cake flavors sound wonderful. My mouth is watering for the vanilla bean pound cake!

This is a wonderful thread.

I wonder if we could organize a road trip just to eat some of the leftovers?

She should post everything on YouFood. Then we would just plug the computer into the data port at the base of our skulls and feel as if we had eaten this wonderful meal.

LSPoorEeyorick · 03-05-2007, 11:42 AM

Sigh. You want to eat our food. We want you to eat our food.

We so enjoyed Teresa and Ken's wedding, but truthfully, it was part bittersweet for us. Here were all of these people we truly hold dear, and watching them joy in such a lovely celebration made it all the clearer how sad we were that the wedding was going to be so far away from our home. (But hey, if you wanna road trip, we'll save you seats!)
