August Wedding
The month of August brought a very special occasion: MY SISTER'S WEDDING!
The wedding was scheduled for 3:00 pm, Saturday the 24th at Cochino Lodge. Guests came from Louisiana, Warsaw-Poland, San Diego, San Antonio, Angleton, Burnett, Irving, and other points to enjoy not only a wedding but a great reunion of family members and friends. This wedding was a wonderful multi-enjoyable event. Décor and Food preparations began on Friday. BarBQ, by Jeff Johnson's Swamp Donkey, was begun Friday night and lasted throughout the night into the next day. That meat was delish!!!
The bride was simply beautiful!
The bride's cake, beautifully made by Katha Scott, echoed the couples love of water-- flowers, shells and shades of the sea were incorporated into the cake's design. A huge cake that was also delicious!
My other sister, Cindy, baked and designed the groom's cake, assisted by another of our sisters, Lori. The cake was a delicious gluten-free chocolate with caramel and crumbled chocolate candy bars sprinkled on top. She also made delicate fruit carvings which added to the tropical feel of the decor. A large
turtle made of watermelon and filled with fruit, dolphins made of
bananas in a sea of fruit with the heart melon rising in the back was
delicious as well as beautiful. Palm trees of vegetables adorned the
tables with black olives along side.
Each table had a glass fish bowel filled with colorful stones and beautiful colorful fish, one to each bowel. These darted back and forth throughout the wedding and guests took them home. Great idea and so colorful!
