Last night Mrs. Butterfly and I (and our spouses) attended Mrs. Snail’s wedding at the Rockleigh Country Club in New Jersey. I wanted to let her give you all the details, but here’s a tiny sneak peek.

Officially Mr. and Mrs. Snail! They both looked so happy all night, and they really do make a great couple.

The best man and maid of honor tossed feathers at the bride and groom as they walked down the aisle after the ceremony.

I have to confess why I’m writing this blog - because the cocktail hour must be blogged about. It was sick. Truly, truly sick. And I mean in a good way. 8 stations of every possible cocktail food imaginable. And if that wasn’t enough, they passed some of my favorite hors douevres like pigs in a blanket and spanakopitas. It was the most food I’ve ever seen at a wedding!

The raw bar which had shrimp, crab claws, oysters, clams, caviar and more…

The vodka luge - put a shot of vodka in at the top and catch a chilled shot at the bottom.

The panini station. These were sooooo good. I posted this pic because I think the woman operating the panini press has a funny expression.

The cheese bar. She sliced fresh pieces right onto your plate.

The ahi tuna/salmon station.

The Mediterranean station - olives, couscous, tabouli, and hummus in giant martini glasses.

There was also a pasta station, roast beef station, shrimp/beef skewer station (all three made fresh on the spot), fried food station (calamari, chicken), veggies, fruits… I’m seriously drooling blogging this right now. But enough about food…

Congrats to the new Mr. and Mrs. Snail who are headed to Mexico for their honeymoon! Their wedding was a blast and I think all 300 guests would definitely agree!

PS - I wore Insolias in my 4″ heels last night, and boy do they work! My feet didn’t hurt at all.
