Tea Time!

It’s “Tea Time” today on the Southern Bride Blog! January is National Hot Tea Month and we think that it’s also a great idea to serve an assortment of hot tea during these cold months at your shower, rehearsal dinner or wedding! A tea themed shower is an oh so cute, sophisticated idea! Have lovely tea cups and saucers or you can even mix and match them for fun! Hit up some local antique shops and search for some pretty antique tea cups that you can use, then keep for years to come!  And we must not forget tasty tea time treats! Serve tea cookies, tea sandwiches, scones, mini pies, and any other baked goods that you may love.

For a rehearsal dinner or wedding, have a Tea Station! If you have a Winter or Fall wedding, this is a great way to keep your guests warm and cozy. A selection of teas at a Tea Station can also act as your favors! If you decide to serve tea at your event, have an assortment of flavors for your guests to choose from along with the must haves of cream and sugar! You can also have your tea treats at the Tea Station or on each table. Place a tray at each table with an assortment of cookies or scones. To add an extra special touch, take 3-5 cookies, stack them, then tie them with ribbon. This will make for an elegant presentation and also decorate your table! This is PERFECT for all of you DIY, savvy brides out there!

Don’t forget that your local rental companies have cups and saucers in various patterns, as well as silver tea sets! If you are thinking of having a tea themed event but you don’t have enough cups and saucers or a tea set, and you do not want to purchase them, rent them! Classic Party Rentals in Memphis offer a number of china patterns which include cups and saucers! We particulary loved the pattern shown below from Classic Party Rentals, which we used for our Majestic Bride shoot. Visit Classic Party Rentals and take a look in their showroom for all you need for the perfect tea party!

Enjoy inspiration below from our Majestic shoot shot by PF Conrey Fine Photography. After the Royal Wedding, we were eager to do a Majestic/Royal/Kate Middleton inspired shoot  - which you can see more of in the current issue of Southern Bride Magazine! The florals from this shoot were done by Petals Studios!

You don’t have to be a royal to have your afternoon tea

So take a break from your busy day

And enjoy a cup of tea, okay?

Chocolates fit for a “City” Bride

Chocistry was a part of our “City Bride” photoshoot (which you can see in the current Winter issue of Southern Bride) and they created a specialty chocolate just for the shoot!

The chocolate created is called “Zola” which is a hand painted fine dark chocolate shell with an apricot gorgonzola dolce white chocolate ganache. Doesn’t that just make your mouth water? Let Chocistry create something extra special for your next party, event, special occasion or wedding! It will not only be a piece of art, but an unforgettable, decadent treat!

Post Wedding Brunch {Tips & Ideas}

A post wedding brunch has become quite common these days. It’s a perfect way to join your family and friends and reminisce on the festivities and joy from the day/night before.  Usually a post wedding brunch includes the wedding party, family, and of course out of town guests. It’s more of an intimate affair and usually the bride and groom want to keep it small.  This will give the new couple time to visit with their family and friends since it may have been hard to find time the day before and vica verca – your family and friends will have more time to visit and catch up as well!

When thinking of planning a Post Wedding Brunch there are often a few questions the bride and groom may have:

{1} Who Pays for the Brunch?     Typically there are no formal rules as to who pays for the brunch. This is something you need to discuss as a couple, along with parents on both sides. There are several options when it comes to who pays. Sometimes if their pockets allow, the bride and groom pay for it. It’s way for them to say thank you to everyone for being involved and traveling to be a part of their big day!  If that is not an option, then usually the bride or groom’s parents pays – or a family member or friend may host the brunch.  If a post brunch is something you really want to do, but the budget just wont allow – simply invite everyone to a “no host” brunch at a local restaurant or café. Everyone will pay for their own, but it will still be a great, final get together with all of those who were a part of your special day!

{2} Location, Location, Location  There are many options when choosing a post brunch location. One important thing to keep in mind is keeping it close. You do not want to choose a location that is far or hard to get to and make it hard on those who are not familiar with the area. If you have several out of town guests booked at the same hotel, check and see if the hotel has a brunch and choose to have it there and make it convenient for the out of towners.  Another option is the venue where you held your reception. Depending on the venue, they may have a smaller room that can be set up for a brunch. As mentioned before, a local restaurant/café  - or having a friend or family member host a brunch are also options!

{3) Choosing a Time   What is a good time for a post wedding brunch? Since the night before was probably a late one and perhaps even went into the wee hours of the morning, choosing a time too early may not be the best idea – but that’s why it’s called a brunch, so that it’s a little later. The time of the brunch however, does in fact determine the type of food that can be served. A brunch held around 10:00a.m. would include more breakfast items, while a brunch held closer to noon can still have a variety of breakfast selections plus salad, sandwich and even meat options. {Tip:} While you want to make sure everyone has time to rest from celebrating the night before and not have brunch too early, you also want to keep in mind the travel plans of family and friends. Some may have a long drive ahead of them or may even have to be a the airport at a certain time – get with everyone to check on their departing plans before setting a time.

{4} Invites   If it is going to be a very small group, then a verbal invitation is perfectly fine! However, a formal invitation is always nice. And formal doesn’t mean the actual invitations have to cost much. Sending out actual invitations will also remind guests to RSVP – this way you will know the number of people you will have. This will also let you know how much food will be needed if it is gong to be catered. {Tip:} If you have a good idea the partying is going to last late into the night, keep that in mind when thinking about guests who may not show up for the brunch!

{5} Brunch Menu   If you are planning more of a morning brunch {10:00am} you will want to have plenty of coffee, tea, juice or even a smoothie station! Breakfast foods such as eggs, quiche, bagels, muffins, pastries, bacon, sausage, and fresh fruit are great choices. An omelet or waffle station are also great ideas and always a hit!  If your planning a later brunch, {noon -1:00pm} you can still include some breakfast items while also offering sandwiches, salads, cheeses, meat and maybe even pasta. {Tip:} While it is not a requisite, serving champagne or cocktails such as mimosas and bloody mary’s are always nice additions to a brunch!

{6} Keep it Simple!    A post wedding brunch can be nice, but it doesn’t have to be extravagant! Keep it simple and relaxed! This is a great opportunity to re-use some of the flower arrangements from the day before (which will save you money!) If the brunch is hosted by a friend or family member, let them know that fine china is not a must, keep it easy and use nice, good quality plastic plates and cups. There are so many options out there these days when it comes to plastic tableware that you can still find some that are decorative and stylish!  If your brunch is at a restaurant or café then all you will have to do is show up and enjoy while leaving the clean up to them. If you do have flower arrangements from the night before, check with them and make sure you can bring them in to set on the tables and get there just a few minutes early to do that! {Tip:} To add some ambiance, have some light music playing in the background if your location allows or have a video rolling with photos (perhaps one that was used the day before) for family and friends to enjoy and reminisce!

{7} Be Marry & Mingle!     Take this time as a couple to really mingle and chat with those close to you! We all know sometimes it’s hard to do this during your reception because there are so many people to see and so much going on – so this is the perfect time! Take this time to thank everyone for their efforts, money spent, and traveling all for your big day!  {Tip:} Be sure to bring your camera or have a friend or family member take some photos during the brunch. This will be the last chance to get photos with family and friends that might not have been captured the day/night before! You want to be sure to capture memories!!

Of course it’s wonderful all by itself, but how about stepping outside the box and mixing this summer fruit with some other mouth watering favorites? We have just the recipe. It is Halloumi and Watermelon Bites. For those of you who are not familiar with Halloumi, it is a Greek cheese. This is perfect to serve for summer parties, events and yes, weddings! It will please your guests as they enjoy all the refreshing flavors.

{Recipe via Tastespotting} 

Servings: 10 two-inch pieces

Ingredients

1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped

2 tablespoons fresh mint, chopped

1 garlic clove, chopped (1 clove)

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

4-5 ounces Halloumi cheese, in 1/2-inch thick slices (slices can  be cut smaller if you want them bite size)

Approximately 1-pound watermelon, rinds removed and sliced into bite-sized portions

Sea salt and pepper, to taste, if desired

Fresh mint, for garnish

 

Instructions

1. Combine the basil, mint and the garlic in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped.

2. Slowly pour the olive oil into the feed tube with the blade running.  Puree until the mixture is smooth. (There may be a few bits of basil and mint remaining.)

3.  Place the basil-mint oil in a strainer over a bowl and press to remove all the liquid.  Discard the solids, and set the oil aside.

4. Preheat a grill pan over medium heat

5. Lightly brush the cheese with the basil-mint oil, and grill for approx 3 minutes each side.  Flip as needed and brush with the basil-mint oil as desired.  Grill until lightly browned and crispy.

6.  Remove the cheese pieces from the grill and if desired, lightly grill the watermelon. (1 minute on each side.)

7.  Assemble each piece by placing some Halloumi on top of each watermelon slice and garnish with salt, pepper, and fresh mint.

{Guest Blogger: The Chef’s Garden} Vintage Inspiration

Browsing a great blog like Southern Bride, you are sure to get inspired– maybe even over inspired! There are so many great details and stellar ideas; it can be overwhelming to decide what to actually incorporate into your own special day. Making matters even tougher, Styled Shoots, like this one, while meant to inspire great ideas, are not “wedding ready”– meaning that just like your wedding dress, they need to be “fitted” to meet the needs of your event.

The inspiration for this shoot was to juxtapose the grand southern estate of The Ribault Club with shabby chic accents that have a vintage twist.  The key design elements are a beautifully set table under the canopy of a great oak tree with a hanging chandelier, a scrumptious biscuit and pie bar, and a color palette of peaches and grays– doesn’t it all look so inviting? The details are what make this shoot feel so cozy: the table runner with monogrammed table number, the apple place cards, the guitar and, oh yeah, the FLOWERS! It feels like it all effortlessly fell perfectly into place– the signature of a well designed wedding shoot.

So, how exactly do you take a shoot like this and make it yours? Two key steps: Edit and Repeat. The average size wedding is for 125-175 guests, so you will obviously need to a few more tables. You could repeat this same table design or incorporate complementing, but more traditional, round table to set this breathtaking family style table apart. Having a mix of both low and high tablescapes with suspended flowers or light fixtures (like the featured chandelier) is really in vogue right now. It helps break the space up and keeps thing from getting monotonous. The charm of the flowers is that the composite design is made from a unique array of flowers that complement each other, but do not feel like they were meant to “match.” The most beautiful floral designs feel like they were created by Mother Nature, not your florist.  The canopy of the tree could be used for a charming lemonade stand that could be enjoyed by all your guests while seating could be placed under an open air canopy of lights. For the biscuit and pie bar: repeat, repeat, and repeat. Part of the charm of this bar is that it feels like your grandma or great Aunt Sally created it special for your wedding, but only a little better! However, it needs to be more accessible to guests, so either repeat such bars in numerous locations or extend the length of the table.

These are just a few possibilities; We’re sure you have more. That’s the beauty of styled shoots and blogs, they get you thinking and imagining all the wonderful possibilities!

___________________________________________________

As summer arrives, wedding season kicks into high-gear here in the South. Hundreds of vendors across the region have been working hard to make this season bigger and better than ever. Now it has arrived. What should you expect to see?

{photos by Young Designs}

Where color and decor is concerned….Anything goes! Bright and bold colors will make a huge splash on the wedding scene, solo or combined. Metallic accents are still a huge trend right now, so silver and gold will be seen as “the” accent colors. Decor will be personalized to leave a lasting impression on guests. Each detail will be accounted for and planned, thought out and executed to perfection. This will be the same for an outdoor ceremony and reception, casual buffet wedding, or the most elaborate sit-down dinner.

{crystalgoss.com}

{kesweddings.com}

The main focus on the wedding day is the “Bride & Groom,” but during the wedding planning, make sure you focus on the guests experience too. Are you having an outdoor wedding? Make sure a beverage is available for guests upon arrival that they can take to their seat; you never know if it will be 70 degrees or 110, a sip of water is always nice as well. At your reception, serve a signature beverage, that is a personal favorite of the Bride and Groom. This can be alcoholic or non based on the couples preference.

{photographybystacey}

A continuing trend among wedding decor is event lounge furniture. It allows a more comfortable seating option for guests to catch up, or take a break from dancing along with your fabulous band. But the most popular trend this season, that will add to your guests experience revolves around food. Tapas and miniature personal servings will be the talk of the town. But to really get your guests talking about your wedding for months to come- get a local ‘food truck’ to attend. Yes, the food truck phenomenon has finally arrived to the south and I couldn’t be more thrilled. This can be a late night snack for your guests, or forgo a candy bar or desert buffet, and have frozen yogurt brought in. The options are endless when it comes to your big day. Most of all, remember to choose decor, food and entertainment that you as the bride and groom care about, it is your day!

{photographybymelisa}

Not sure how to tie all of the details and trends that you love into making your day one-of-a-kind? Hire an event designer and coordinator, who you trust, and that has your best interest at heart to ease the stress and allow you to enjoy being a “Bride-to-be” and planning your dream wedding! After all, it will be a day where your dreams do come true.

6 egg whites

Champagne Buttercream Frosting Ingredients

Directions

Cupcakes:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).  Prepare a cupcake pan with liners.

In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until very light and fluffy. Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together, and then blend into creamed mixture alternately with champagne.

In another large clean bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Fold 1/3 of the whites into batter to lighten it, then fold in remaining egg whites.  Fill the cupcake liners about 2/3 full.

Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.

Frosting:

With an electric mixer, beat together sugar and butter. Mix on low until well blended, and then on medium for another two minutes.  Add vanilla and champagne, beating on medium for another minute.

 

Cheers!

 

Jelly Shots {A classy version of the Jell-O Shot}

What are Jelly Shots you ask?  Jelly Shots are classic cocktails translated into gelatin form, i.e. a grown-up, classy version of the Jell-O Shot!  The hallmarks of a Jelly Shot include: a flavor true to the cocktail inspiration and a free-spirited jiggly form that makes them a delight to devour. These are perfect for any party, wedding or event. They are not only tasty, but also little pieces of art!

If you do serve these at an event where children will be present, make sure you have someone at the station where the Jelly Shots are being served, or have them passed around by someone to ensure that the kids don’t get their hands on them. It’s probably a good idea to have some Jello gigglers for the kiddos, so they feel like they have something fun and yummy too!
