How pretty is this signage? A perfect welcome to the party and those florals from Artisan Bloom are stunning!
The Tasting Room was the perfect venue, don’t you think? We love the mix of feminine florals with just a touch of blue for Meagan and Clayton’s baby boy, Tristan!
Another peek at those beautiful tables! SO PRETTY!
We loved how many fun details were party of this shower as well! Guests were invited to take a Polaroid of themselves to put in the guestbook with a note for the soon-to-be parents!
We knew we had to have a fresh juice bar! Fresh squeezed OJ, Pomegranate Lemonade, Cucumber Mint Water, and Mango Lemonade were all served. Yum!
Of course, since we hosted a brunch party, we made sure to have a signature Coffee Bar!
This action bar with artisan cheeses, salad, crackers, and honeycomb was definitely a crowd favorite!
Seriously, how pretty was this event??? I couldn’t help but share one more of this beautiful setup!
We love our Ebelskiver action station! How could you not love these delicious pancakes? Plus the guests love having theirs made to order!
The hand calligraphied menus were such a great addition to the event! Also we served Eggs Benedict because you can’t have brunch with out Benes. Our delicious version were also made to order and topped with whichever toppings the guests wanted. So good!
Of course we also had a whole selection of desserts! Plus, we love displaying some of them in our honeycomb display. Such a whimsical touch!
Thank you to all of the wonderful people who came to celebrate Meagan, Clayton, and baby Tristan! And thank you to Soiree Productions, Artisan Bloom, The Tasting Room, Logan Walker Photography, and Pepper Nix Photography for coming together to host such a beautiful event for them too! It was the best day to celebrate the best soon to be parents!

The gorgeous florals from 
Custom "His & His" cocktails and Mini Tacos with tiny Patron bottle shots were the perfect welcome to this stylish reception! How fun is this hors d'ouevre presentation?!
Of course, what's a dinner without bread? Our house made Black Pepper Brioche Rolls with Utah Sea Salt Butter paddles were so yummy!
One of the many food stations - The delicious Mezzaluna Salad station!
Our two salad offerings were so delicious (as well as beautiful!) Our Farro Salad with Harvest Tomatoes, Roasted Beets, Herbs, Sweet Onion, Arugula, and Balsamic Vineagar and out Farm Greens, with Mango, Kiwi, Wonton Crisps, and Vanilla Bean Vinaigrette, topped with Toasted Coconut. YUM!
A menu after my own heart! The couple chose to serve a selection of artisan cheese boards - how cute!
Our cheese boards featured Tea Hive Cheddar, "What's Her Name?" Basque Style Sheep Milk Cheese, Deer Valley Triple Cream with Truffle, Point Reyes Blue Cheese, and Parmigiano Reggianno accompanied with Red Grapes, Honey Crisp Apple, Honey Comb, Bada Bing Cherries, and Salted Marcona Almonds. So good!
We also hosted action stations with different entrees including our Pan-Seared Black Cod with Honey Soy Glaze, Wilted Spinach, Parsnip Puree, Garnished with Edible Micro Flowers.
Next up, our Smoked Short Rib Adobo with Mushroom Escabeche with Purple Potato Mash and Honey Barbecue Sauce! Wait until you see the preparation of this dish...
Each Short Rib entree was individually smoked under glass dome for the guests at the action station. Such a fantastic presentation!
The couple also chose to have a sushi bar complete with customized chopsticks that their guests could take home as favors!
Plus, of course there were desserts! Firstly, our House Made Gelato Station featured Vanilla and Passion Fruit flavors - both with options to 'spike' them! Vanilla pairings were Espresso, Bailey's Irish Cream, or Kahlua and the Passion Fruit pairing was Limoncello. Delicious! And how fun were these sugar skulls?
Cronuts, anyone? We served these decadent beauties in cute little kraft bags so the guests could grab one as they left or take it with them while they mingled!
Another fun addition? Giant Cotton Candy Mountains! So much fun! We also served Fresh Baked Chocolate Chip Cookies and Affagatos! SO DELCIOUS!
Lastly, this cake from 
Chris and his husband, Jacoby, were such a perfect pair! We loved the cohesive look they brought to their wedding clothes while still choosing things that were uniquely each of their own styles!
We love the tongue in cheek wording on their programs and the kind reminder signage to the guests to let the professional photographer take the photos so they could be present in the moment is a favorite for sure.
How pretty is this ceremony setup? The florist, 
More gorgeous florals from 
Another gorgeous overview of the space. I mean, how could I not?
Their wedding was held in fall and we loved the elements of the harvest that were added as well as masculine touches of navy in to keep the feel beautiful as well as not overly feminine. The result? A rich palette of so much delicious, visually interesting decor!
I can't forget the breathtaking hanging floral chandeliers! These were such a pretty and striking addition to the room!
The lovely ladies of 
Speaking of which, we love this 'family portrait' of the couple and their cute Great Dane pups.
Another fun sign for the guests at the bar. We love it!
To encourage people to mingle, the couple opted to add high boy seating around the space so people could move about after dinner while they partied into the night. We love the gold accents and the charcoal linens! Such a polished and chic look.
Chris and Jacoby wanted to make sure that their guests had SO much fun! They added tons of games, including shuffleboard, and a fun sketch "photo booth" with hand drawn versions of the vintage style photo strips! (How cool is that?!)
They even brought in a pool table, which we loved!
And, because no detail was overlooked, they had their initials custom printed onto the pool table balls!
How pretty was this wedding? LOVE IT! Plus, remember to stay tuned for the food post where we focus on the AMAZING menu the couple chose to serve at their wedding! We had such a great time collaborating with them. Stay tuned and happy planning, everyone!

Of course, we hosted the event at our downtown venue, 
We decided to create action stations that represented each episode in the series. For each station, we created a dish as well as a cocktail that perfectly represented the theme and this station "Smoke" was so much fun! The Smoked Maple Bourbon Sour Cocktail was AMAZING! The creation of the drink was a pretty awesome show too!
We got to really pull out the creative guns on this one. The Smoked Short Rib with a Smoked Demi Glace was put in a smoking chamber to infuse the meat with even more smoky goodness. After it was properly infused, we placed it atop our Purple Potato Puree to finish the dish! YUM!
Next up? Our "Fire" station! Of course, we brought some flame to this station! Our Fireside Signature Cocktail was set aflame and our guests loved it!
Next we served Flambed Ramen with our Killer Broth with Chef-Torched Beef, Fire Grilled Peppers, and a Sesame Chili Sauce. Perfect!
This is our Flaming Pumpkin Meringue Pie - which was SO delicious. And our "Fashion" station served Housemade Ricotta and Squash Ravioli. Such a decadently elegant dish!
Of course, while you are perusing the stations (because there are more to come - you better believe it), we had butler passed hors-d'oeuvres! These Mini Brie Grilled Cheese Sandwiches with Pomegranate Arils and the Crostini with Goat Cheese and Poached Pear Compote were so good!
Of course, we had to pay our homage to apples! Utah boasts some of the best local apples ANYWHERE and we try to use them anyway we can! The "Apple" station included Crispy Pork Belly with Whipped Cider Ricotta and Sous-Vide Cooked Apple Relish PLUS an apple dessert trio! The Apple Pie on a Stick, Poached Apples with Mascarpone, and Apple Sorbet with a Dried Apple Chip were all divine!
BUTTER, need I say more? This station included Butter Poached Scallops with a Brussel Sprout Slaw and Citrus Beurre Blanc as well as a bread station (mmm, carbs) with an assortment of house-made breads and house made compound butters and garnishes. I'll admit, I tried EVERY SINGLE OPTION. No regrets.
Last, but certainly not least, we include a station that gave a nod to one of our signature offerings, our House Made gelato! The "Gelato" station included an Olive Oil Gelato with Balsamic Poached Pears Garnished with Sea Salt, Red Wine Gelato with Chocolate Shortbread, and Salted Caramel Gelato which we used in either a Porter Float OR a Root Beer Float! Plus, to balance all of the sweetness this station has to offer, we brought in our Coffee Nerd Coffee Bar with cold brew and french press coffees! Such a delicious treat and our guests LOVED the interesting flavors!
We are SO excited for our new series - and if you haven't watched the first episode, we hope you check it out! (You can see it 
To create a calm and natural ambiance the chairs were decorated with sage branches and soft white ribbon.
After the ceremony guests were seated at tables adorned with succulents in rustic wood boxes and gold mercury glass votives echoing the natural ambiance of the patio.
Guests were delighted with their 4-course Pop-up wedding dinner!
Mary Crafts-Homer introduced each course, explaining the nuances of the ingredients and preparations.
At Pop-up Dinners, guests can watch our chef's cook and plate everything!
Angie and Scott were able to make their rounds to talk to their wedding guests during the first course.
After enjoying passed hors d'oeuvres, guests were served a fresh green salad with Parmesan, lemon vinaigrette, and lemon zest.
For the second course, we served the ultimate comfort food: Mary's homemade meatballs and spaghetti with shaved Parmesan!
How incredible does this grilled prime filet look?! It's topped with melon salsa and served over balsamic potatoes, leeks, and asparagus.
For their fourth course, everyone enjoyed a tasting of Utah cheeses, honey comb, and apple as well as a wine and cheese napoleon on a brioche crostini.
For dessert guests enjoyed petite chocolate fudge wedding cakes with raspberry coulis and edible gold dust sprinkles, served with home made caramel gelato on the side.
All in all – this was a Pop-up Wedding success!
