September Weddings at Highgrove
Our last wedding of the month was an elegant evening filled with Tiffany blue and chocolate brown. It was a warm day, but the sun was out for the outdoor ceremony and the guests stayed cool in the beautifully decorated tent. Dinner included a beef tenderloin carving station, a table presentation of warm dips, homemade crackers, and roasted fresh vegetables, and a seafood station with shrimp, two types of crab legs, and crawdads. The cake was provided by Sweet Memories Bakery and the flowers were designed by Fresh Affairs. It was a wonderful way to end the busy month and the warm summer!

September Weddings at Highgrove
The end of September is already here as we look forward to the beautiful fall weddings coming up at Highgrove! The wedding featured here was an intimate affair featuring greens and purples and a lovely plated dinner. Each guest was treated to a delicious box of chocolates at their seat and then enjoyed a fabulous meal prepared by our own chefs. We started off with a Mediterranean salad with a homemade Greek savory pastry, an intermezzo sorbet course (with an edible purple orchid), and then Pecan Crusted Bourbon chicken, Roasted Purple Potato Medley, and Green Beans Almondine. The flowers were provided by Flowers on Broad Street and the cake was brought in by Ashley Cakes.

Summer Weddings at Highgrove
The wedding this past Saturday was an elegant and perfect night! The weather was gorgeous and all the details of the wedding came together for a special night to remember. The event began with the personalized ceremony overlooking the lake. Cocktail hour was on the upper patio where guests were served homemade crabcakes, bruschetta, and sesame chicken, along with a signature guava mojito drink. The cocktail tables each featured old family wedding pictures and guests were invited to fill out personalized note cards for the bride and groom. Guests were then welcomed into the reception where amazing pink roses and candles decorated the tables. Dinner was served at three different stations: beef tenderloin was carved and served on the patio, the pasta station featured three different sauces and tortellini, and the salad station had three types of salad all served with chicken and fresh bread. You can also check out the bride and her dad dancing! The flowers were brought in by Fresh Affairs, the cake was provided by Ambrosia Cakes, and Reverend Kayelily Middleton performed the ceremony.
Summer Weddings at Highgrove
Here are pictures from two of the weddings this weekend. The weather was perfect and the events were wonderful! Friday's wedding featured beautiful plum and linen colored linens. The pergola was decorated with hanging white hydrangea balls and candles which created the romantic backdrop for the outdoor ceremony overlooking the lake. Following cocktail hour, dinner was a plated meal where guests enjoyed a Mediterranean salad, then a sorbet course, and finally a entree where they could choose between salmon with crab filling or chicken stuffed with goat cheese. The food was done, as always, by our fabulous Highgrove chefs, flowers were brought in by Fresh Affairs, and the cake was provided by Sweet Memories Bakery. A fantastic start to our busy month of September weddings!
