Katie and David were the most adorable clients to work with. Although her hometown was in Florence, she married here,  in Birmingham, at Dawson Memorial Church. David is from Mountain Brook. Katie and her Mom had to depend on using the  phone and email  to make most decisions. This was a beautiful fall afternoon wedding, and  box lunches were provided for the bride and groom's wedding party . This is a wise decision. I have actually heard of brides falling out from low blood sugar, because they failed to eat properly that day. They were all  fed well after pictures were taken, but before the ceremony. I cannot tell you how many brides and grooms, as well as their parents, never touch a bite of food at their own reception. The overwhelming  request of their guests wishing  to congratulate them usually causes this. We always pack a beautiful picnic basket with lots of goodies and plenty of cake, and a few hours later it is always appreciated by the newly married couple, as well as their parents.I don't remember eating or drinking at my wedding, except the bite and drink for the posed picture.I have scanned the photographs, so their quality is not like digital photography. Katie and David had a special request, Mt. Dew, and Milos tea! They said anyone that knew them well, would expect to see these favorite beverages in their hand at all times. We iced  down individual size bottles  and served them on ice , in tin buckets. Favorites here : Chocolate table, and the shrimp!
