In July, A friend from work asked me to cater his wedding!!! AHHH! I thought he was kidding but after a week of asking I realized he was serious! I called my friend Chelsey who is in the Culinary Progrm with me and we decided to do it! We made their cake and a dinner for 35!
The Cake was white with raspberry filling, buttercream ,and Fondant!
The Salad had mixed greens and spinich with fetta cheese, pine nuts, crasins,and a fanned out strawberry with poppyseed dressing!
The Veg: Asparagus Bundles! Asparagus, green beans, yellow,red,and orange pepper, all tied together with a leek strip! (These hadn't gone in the oven yet! The yellow chunks are butter)
The dinner Consisted of... White rice(which wasn't sticky enough to stay in it's mold,so that's why it's just in a pile!) Teryaki Chicken ,Pinnapple, Papaya Salsa, and Asparagus bundle with Teryaki sauce and a roasted red pepper coulis!
My cousins Sharla, Lacey and Dani were life savers!!! Literally!!!! When Chelsey and I got there we realized we had left the veg. (Every caterers nightmare!) But luckily my cousins hadn't left yet and were able to pick it up on the way! They were amazing! They served the dinner and even helped plate a little bit when Chelsey and I were falling behind!
Sharla and Lacey all ready to serve! Aren't they sexy!!??
After serving the cake Dani and I were very tempted to start a cake fight!! We decided that wouldn't be very profesional so we just took pictures with our faces by it! This last picture is all of us with the bride and groom after they had changed and were all ready to leave!! I was extremely nervous starting out the night especially because it was our first time AND my first time leaving Oaklee, but it turned out to be a fantastic night! The bride and groom were so pleased and everyone loved it! It was great, but when the night was over I was so excited to get back home to my baby Oaklee!
