Colorado Mountain Wedding
/It was an exciting wedding weekend! We had the opportunity to cater at a venue new to us. Nestled in the foothills of Colorado, Meadow Creek Bed and Breakfast is a historic stone lodge completed in 1920's by an Italian prince for his Denver bride. This mountain oasis provided the perfect backdrop for Katie + Brady’s casually elegant wedding.
Rain showers held out for the outdoor ceremony. Chatter and congratulations filled the air throughout cocktail hour where we passed around some of our delicious hors d’oeuvres. The trays were filled with Braised Short Rib and Chimichurri on Crostini, Tuna Tartare on a Crisp Wonton topped with Wasabi Microgreens and Fingerlimes, and Sweet Corn Soup Shooters with Lime Crema.
After everyone had time to mingle, they all found their seats and got ready for more toasts and the main course to be served. The venue was perfect to serve the family style dinner the bride and groom requested. Dinner started with a Spinach and Arugula Salad with Candied Walnuts, Dried Cranberries, Feta Cheese and a Cranberry Balsamic Vinaigrette. We then served up family style portions of Grilled Beef Tenderloin Medallions with Bordelaise Sauce and Horseradish Cream, Achiote Seared Salmon Filet, Mushroom, Sweet Corn and Parmesan Cheese Risotto Cakes, Seasonal Vegetables and Assorted Dinner Rolls with Butter.
The happy newlyweds took time saying hello to all of their loved ones and then it was time for the brides special request – a gourmet s’mores bar! With a variety of gourmet s’mores options ranging from The Nutty Buddy to The Salted Caramel to The Samoa, there was a flavor to fit everyone’s taste buds.
Congratulations to the newlyweds, Katie + Brady, on your happy marriage and beautiful wedding!
