Guests were welcomed to the wedding with the aroma of Hot Apple Cider - served in cups garnished with cinnamon sticks - a simple touch that added so much to the presentation.
The blooms from this beautiful altar arrangement were cut the day before the wedding. Our bride and groom spent their wedding night at our nearby romantic accommodation Blue Vistas Cabin. I had been keeping my eye on the huge hydrangea bush at the Cabin, and its blooms were a perfect (free!) touch to decorate with. We cut them just before our bride and groom arrived and kept them in a bucket of cool water overnight.
Caroline, the mother of our bride Melissa, arrived at the wedding venue bearing hot cripsy creme donuts. We stacked them on a Cake Plate and tucked in a napkin. This was the perfect pairing for the hot apple cider - and a great affordable alternative to fancy party platters or catered hor's dourves. Guests were delighted with this seasonal snack, as they waited for the ceremony to begin.
A tiny tribute to our Groom's best canine pal - who did not attend the ceremony - but was there in spirit!
