a beautiful bride is including a charming tradition from her mother’s side of the family, and offering a cookie table at her wedding reception tonight. mrs. jones was honored to stencil a tablecloth for the occasion with the couples’ names, the date, and a fleur-de-lis in each corner…a little love for their alma mater and meeting-place, lsu. the deep orchid color erin chose was perfect for a crisp october evening’s festivities.
family and friends (including the most gorgeous & fun gang of bridesmaids!) gathered at the tower room this morning to arrange the cookies…so abundant that our carefully planned and measured-for eight-foot long table had to be expanded to 12 feet at the last minute…but no matter. it was lovely.
guests will fill these darling bags with cookies as a take-away treat. (my take-away treat was getting to know the covered-up-in-talent erin and meeting some of her nearest and dearest, including holly everett of katherine holly, her friend and photographer.)
all the best to the lovely new mr. & mrs. skinner.
