Autumn Colors - JEN & CHRIS

Jennifer & Chris
11.8.08

A very gracious and hospitable mother of the bride, Bonnie, contacted me to provide a post-ceremony spread at her lovely home in Yardley between the ceremony and the reception for her guests returning from church. Her daughter, Jennifer, tied the knot to her long-time high school sweetheart, Chris. Awwww

I wanted to provide something seasonally special for Bonnie and her guests.
"Homestyle" Edibles are my favorite because I always have plenty of room to provide a more creative spread. In this particular case, Bonnie was kind enough to let me have freedom on creating an appetizing table-scape full of Jennifer's Autumnal colors.

Bonnie requested a customized delivery for her daughter and bridesmaid upon return from the salon, which we happily provided in the morning.

We then returned in the afternoon to set up for her 30 guests with her customized menu of fruit, cheese and mini pretzels. Just enough to take the edge off in time for cocktail hour at the country club reception.

Hello, little fruit swan!

Say Cheese!


I look forward to seeing the bride and groom and bridal party pics and will update this entry as soon as received!

The TEACHER gets Hitched!

ERIN and TODD

Miss Erin is getting married!

Signs and cards from Erin's 2nd grade class filled her hotel suite as the excited bride and her mom anxiously awaited the arrival of the hair/makeup staff and bridesmaids.

Mr. Wedibles and I showed up 9 a.m. with a healthy spread of fruit, yogurt, granola and cheese/veggies to accommodate Erin and her friends as they prepared for Erin's Sunday wedding to Todd.




The drive to Erin's hotel was breathtakingly beautiful with the colors of fall vibrantly exploding from the trees. She and Todd certainly picked a most picturesque time of year to say "I DO". Her flowers certainly reflected that!
We were warmly greeted by Erin and her mom as we set up her mini buffet. I could tell she may have been a little nervous but her face was alive with the promise of a gorgeous Autumn Wedding!
It's not every Wedibles function that I am fortunate enough to get to see the bride "after" or dressed up in her bridal gown and ready to get to the alter. (Usually brides are about to get hair/makeup ready and I quickly set-up and skeedaddle out of there!) Today we were treated to a glowing, smiling bride, parents that were beaming with pride, and elegantly dressed bridesmaids.

Erin looked like a vision! Her gown was a masterpiece of candlelight satin and bejeweled with beading and crystals to set off her "something-borrowed" cameo necklace from her great, great-aunt.


Her mother was lovely in a plum satin gown befit for a ball. Dad was too nervous to eat but ready to get the wedding started and relax at the reception.

We felt so honored to have a little part in Erin and Todd's special day!
