Our Bar Menu!

Hi!

It's truly a blast adding accent pieces that work well with the event. In this particular picture, the wine corks/beer caps framed chalk board did just the trick!
We listed Sara and Ryan's beverage choices and added old style paper, striped straws, displayed the actual beer and wine assortment and waaaalaaaa...
The Beverages!




It was the just what we needed to go along with the wine barrels!
Our wine cellar was the backdrop for the bar and the wine cork hearts added even more charm to the area.




Let's talk about all the little details and we'll have a blast with them!!

Beer from a Wine Barrel?

Hi!
Have you ever heard of getting Beer from a Wine Barrel? 
We have and did!
One of my Father's of the Bride were concerned about a bar line following the ceremony. He wanted his guests to have access to the beverages without waiting!
I came up with a solution that was so much fun as well as  pretty!!

Brandi's theme included lots of lace, organza and vintage accents! 
So, before the wedding this wine barrel was disguised! Can you see the lace and peach ribbon peeking out?  A linen was draped over the barrel,  a basket filled with flowers and an old lace parasol was added..... 

 And after the ceremony, the linen came off and .....Let the Party Begin!!
                                The wine barrel doubled as a beer barrel!  So Cute!
    I placed a lace lined bucket inside the barrel and filled with  beer and ice! I added a sign and waalaaa... Beer from a Wine Barrel!!



I added two bottle openers that dangled from twine for not only a great accent but for opening bottles too!  
 One of my staff stood nearby inviting the guests to enjoy and refilling when it was needed!  
It was the perfect solution to the bar line!

I loved it!!
