A Few of Your Favorite Things


Custom made chocolate covered pretzels
Just one treat Kathryn & Mack's guests had to choose from.
Looking for a token of appreciation to share with your guests, but not sure what to choose? Why not share a few of your favorite things with family and friends. They might just become one of their favorites as well.

The Perfect Blend

Kathryn & Mack

Fair Trade Coffee or Tea Sachets

Chocolate covered pretzels are one of Mack and Kathryn's favorites so they decided on custom made pretzels as one of their wedding favors. To keep with their black and white color theme they had them dipped and then drizzled with white chocolate and tied with a black bow. The perfect addition to these delectable goodies was the guests choice of either a bag of Fair Trade Coffee or a box of Tea Sachets. When the fun and excitement was over and guests were back home, they could sit down and relive the memories from Kathryn & Mack's wedding weekend with a tasty treat and relaxing beverage of their choice.

Edible Elegance


Stunning & Savory
After being contracted by the parents of the groom to help plan and coordinate the rehearsal dinner in honor of Justin and Lisa, we began to explore options for centerpieces besides the usual flowers or candles. Having decided to include everyone on the guest list and not just the wedding party, we would have nearly 20 tables to decorate and 20 centerpieces to do something with after the dinner was over. Since the theme and design would be completely different than the wedding nothing could really be re-used. We wanted a centerpiece that not only looked beautiful, but was also practical. So, after much thought decided to let the dessert serve double duty. The result was not only practical, it was stunning, savory, and made for great conversation.
