Engagement Party = Success!

October 26th, 2006 @ 6:18 pm by Miss Sunflower

Our engagement party (two Sundays ago) was a total success! The food was fabulous, the decorations looked great, my menus came in handy (especially for the great aunts and uncles, who kind of get lost in the shuffle when a buffet is involved), and everyone had a great time! Here are some photos from the affair:

The Bridal Party (take note of the woman holding the little boy - my MOH. She is yelling at her son on the floor in every single shot)

Mom & Grandma’s Homemade Cookies (each table had a tray - the guests were eating them even before dinner was served)

The Buffet Table

The Cake (vanilla cake with cannoli filling - absolutely DELICIOUS! I was, however, mildly annoyed that the flowers did not match the theme. Does that qualify as been crazed?)

Me, after taking 400 hundred pictures…

Everything was very nice. We had bouquets of pearlized lavender and white balloons on each table, along with the cookie trays, menus, and mini bags of M&Ms (which also disappeared prior to dinner). I asked my future SIL to take pictures of each table’s set-up while I was talking to guests, but…alas, she did not. I was sad for a few days…oh well. I got over it :)
