Big Batch Fall Cocktails

October 16, 2018October 16, 2018Leave a comment

I have to admit, I am a summer type of gal- I do not like cold weather, I hate ugg boots, and well, fuck your PSL. However, life goes on, and if I have to suffer through chilly nights (yes I know it only gets like 65 here in SoCal) I want a fun, Fall-inspired … Continue reading Big Batch Fall Cocktails

Coming in hot with more controversial dessert content...remember that you can have a “moment” with any dessert and don’t have to cut a cake. Share an ice cream sandwich like these cuties. Go all lady and the tramp on a churro. I even had a couple share a “first rib” because they preferred bbq over dessert. Just a reminder to DO WHAT THE FUCK YOU WANT 🍾❤️ Photo: @jennysmithandco_
Also no one made and served me margaritas soooo....
You know what ends up being the most stressful part of many wedding days? FAMILY PHOTOS. You just finished your ceremony, you’re trying to enjoy your cocktail hour but grandma’s in the bathrooom and Uncle John won’t leave the bar. And you don’t even want a picture with your drunk Uncle John but your mom will have a meltdown if you don’t, and wait, where the fuck did your creepy cousin and his uninvited plus one go?! Ya. That. Every. Time. So! Here are a couple strategies to help control the madness... 1. Make a shot list. Of all the people and combinations you want in these formal family shots. Then go back and edit that list- not necessarily limiting the number of people, but limit the number of combinations. 2. Assign a “family wrangler”. Your photographer and coordinator will do their best to get the family where they need to be, but like, I don’t know who your Auntie is. So, assign one bossy family member on each side, and give them your shot list. Then threaten those family members with no dessert if they don’t report to photos on time. 3. Decide on a photo spot, away from cocktail hour, and when you’re doing it. Usually I recommend knocking out these photos directly after the ceremony (hopefully people aren’t too drunk yet), and maybe there’s a side lawn, the front of the building, or staying in the ceremony area, but for goodness sake, don’t do them in the cocktail hour area! Then you have hoards of guests looky-looing and slowing the whole god damn process down!! Phew! Can you tell this is something I get frustrated with?! Drop your number one Family Photo tip in the comments... (Wish all families were as cute as this one, captured beautifully by @jennysmithandco_ )
Coffee all day...til wine ☕️
Early when they were dating, Mike asked Janice what her favorite color was. She replied, “I don’t really have a favorite color. I have a favorite color palette.” 😂🙌 Well, she took that favorite color palette and then @rogueandfox fuckin made magic with it 🎨 Photo: @amandavanvels
