It was 6 years ago today that we actually pulled off catering our own wedding. While not the most practical thing to do, we didn't want to comprimise on the food at our wedding and we didn't know anyone else that was up for catering a locally source menu.
With the work of our families and friends, a full year in planning, Ben and I got married on a perfect day in August. Roasted Lamb from the Wettsteins and all the produce we needed from Blue Moon Farm (which we harvested along with Jon's lovely G&T's) rounded out the menu. Our parents rolled dolmas in our home's first kithchen and our friends prepped vegetables alongside the groom in the camp's kitchen on our wedding day.
We figure if we can cater our own wedding, we can cater anyone elses! Our menu was perfect for a buffet and we did a vegan version for some folks last summer. Salads and vegetables that all combine with homemade grilled pitas.
Now off to make an anniversary dinner... a little simpler than the actual day, homemade pasta and Bolognese, accompanied by a wonderful bottle of wine.
