Two Fun Candy Buffets

One day, one location, one Bar Mitzvah, one Bat Mitzvah!

Our first Candy Buffet for a lovely afternoon Bar Mitzvah at Spanish Hills Country Club.

Arrived at 9:00am to set up Nathan's Candy Buffet with a rainbow colored buffet.

Then back at 3:00pm to take down Nathan's buffet and set up Blair's Bat Mitzvah Buffet. Blair had a beautiful color scheme of pinks, oranges and browns.

Mazel Tov to Nathan & Blair and their families!

Calamigos December Wedding

Pinecone Themed Wedding

Calamigos Ranch

December 2011

Last wedding cake of 2011

The pine cone wedding cake followed the theme of the wedding.

Note from the bride:

I can't even begin to tell you how amazing our CAKES were! Lori did a fabulous job helping me figure out what I wanted for my pine cone themed wedding and made us the most beautiful, tasty cake imaginable. She also made a fabulous grooms cake shaped like a Broncos garden gnome that no one could believe was actually cake because it was so cool looking. Above and beyond my wildest dreams!! Thank you thank you!

This beautiful brides bouquet was created by Debbie of Floral Fields. 
Loved how she incorporated the Pine Cone Theme.

The ceremony site outside of the main dining room at Calamigos Ranch was decked out for the season with fresh Pine Cone garland.  Debbie of Floral Fields is so creative!

Each table was adorned with large glass candle holders and wooden reeds for a winter wonderland theme.

Timmy the Gnome has been brought back to life in the form of Cake.  The groom took the original Gnome when he was deployed to Afghanistan. 
Unfortunately Timmy had a casualty while deployed :(

Best Wishes to Talia & Chris!

Calamigos Ranch Wedding

Saturday, November 5, 2011

Calamigos Ranch

In between two days of sprinkles, the sun was out in full force on Saturday, just in time for a beautiful wedding.

Monica and Greg were married today, though a bit chilly out during the ceremony, inside the fireplace was blazing and the atmosphere was festive.

The wedding cake was stenciled with delicate flowers and appliqued fondant striping adorned the wedding cake created by Pastries By Vreeke.

The ceremony site at the main area of Calamigos was adorned with beautiful flowers, oh so pretty!

Bubbles were supplied to the guest to blow after the ceremony.

The dining room was decked out with purple tablecloths and beautiful flowers created by Flower Allie.

Congratulations to Monica & Greg
