August Wedding at Highgrove






It was a rainy morning, but the skies cleared just in time for Norah and Eric's wedding this past weekend! The bride and groom exchanged vows underneath our pergola ceremony area where a wind chime played tunes and guests used personalized fans to cool themselves off. The ceremony included a variety of special touches, including a reading from The Velvetine Rabbit, an Apache Blessing, a unity candle, and a breaking of a glass. Guests moved up to the patio for cocktails as live guitar music played in the background. Pita points with Hummus and Tapenade, Sesame Chicken Skewers and a Fruit display were served as the bridal party took pictures. The reception was held in our Garden Ballroom where a beautiful display of colorful linens and flowers greeted guests as they entered for dinner. The meal was served Family Style on our glass lazy susans and included Caesar and Garden Salads, Rolls, Chicken Frances, Smoked Beef Brisket, Seasonal Vegetables, and our Garlic Roasted Mashed Potatoes. Guests love the lazy susans which allow them to share food at the table with just a spin of the glass. The cake was served after a little break for dancing and featured a handmade topper by the bride. It was a perfect summer wedding at Highgrove!
