Oh my goodness, Y’all! I just realized that I never posted the wedding menu from last year… and here we are almost a year later! Thank goodness for my Holiday Planner… I’ve got my notes 🙂 Thankfully, some of the family and friends did offer to bring some of the food… that helped a lot.

Most of the recipes were able to be made in advance, so we spent the two days before the wedding getting all the food prepped. It was a lot of work, but we had a lot of family come to help, and many hands make light work, and God enabled us with the spirit of determination to get it done!

In my defense, I believe that I was waiting so I could post some of the photos, but sadly the photos were lost so we never got the ones we were waiting on… if you want to see what we have you can check out this post:

Even though we didn’t get photos of everything, it all turned out lovely and this day is a memory that we will cherish in our hearts and minds. Our family came together and pulled off a very lovely event for my daughter and son-in-law, who have recently welcomed their first child… such an exciting time!

Please be sure to check out this post for links to the decorations and items we used to make this day a little extra special…. I’ll even try to post some of the printables that I made for the wedding!
