Dancing the tango built up an appetite! A lot of brides say they either weren't hungry at their wedding, or they didn't have time to eat. Not the case here. I was ready to stuff my face. A late afternoon dinner was provided by?Skillet, the acclaimed Seattle food truck. They served up our favorite comfort foods out of their vintage Airstream trailer.
Chef Josh Henderson worked with us to create a custom menu to satisfy me and my family, the veggies, Hal and his family, the meaties, and everyone in between...
PASSED APPETIZERS:
- Roasted sweet corn crostini, tarragon, creme fraiche.
- Parmesan risotto bites, English pea puree, truffle aioli
DINNER BUFFET:
- Grilled watermelon salad, balsamic reduction, watercress, sea salt
- Artichoke barigoule, braised hearts, mirapoix, saffron
- Poutine, hand-cut fries, vegetarian gravy, cheddar, grana?padano, herbs
- Butternut squash mac and?cheese, truffle, parmesean, cheddar
- The burger, grass-fed beef, arugula, blue/brie, bacon jam, brioche
- The portobello burger, grilled peaches, gorgonzola, balsamic reduction
My dad lovingly made us the chalkboard menu door. I'm currently trying to find some wall space in our house to hang it up. I almost don't even want to erase it!
My pops also built the bar, using scraps of old wood.?Scott Mallard, our bartender, served up two signature cocktails. Hal's was named, "Hal In Washington", made with?whiskey and Martinelli's. Sounds strange, but it was delightfully pleasant. Mine was called,?"Green Eyed Lady", made?with gin, cucumber and mint. We served local beer from from 7 Seas?& Sound Brewery?kegs, and cold non-alcoholic drinks out of a canoe filled with ice.
Kelly of?Tortes and Tarts?baked a lovely assortment of dessert table goodies:?brownies, cookies, pie pops and cannolis, presented with the tea party china I was given at?my bridal shower.
I initially wanted a cake made of cheese, but it would have melted in the sun. And Hal craved the real deal. So we asked my cousin, Isaac, who decorates cakes in his spare time, to make us one. We asked for something small, simple, and chocolate. He delivered, beautifully.?
