Earlier, while this chef/owner was frying the catfish for the tacos in the family kitchen, she witnessed the throwdown challenge between Matt and Ami's father. Mr. Parks had to eat a fried catfish taco and Matt had to eat pasta noodles with plain tomato soup, right out of the can. Priceless! They both bit the bullet, or should I say, the tomato soupy noodle thing and the taco?
Dr. Jazz http://www.drjazzmusic.com/ of New Orleans provided wonderful music. Alex Harvie, a local artist painted all evening to capture the special moments. Melissa McCaa did the cake which was beautiful and the guests said was absolutely wonderful. Doug Olinde provided tables, chairs and tenting with his usual excellent service.
Best Catered Events set up the food on a small deck area. We served our Shrimp and Cheese Grits, Fried Fish Tacos with homemade tartar sauce, Sweet and Sour Meatballs on Pretzel Sticks, Louisiana Stuffed Crawfish Bread, Brandied Fig and Apricot Torte with Cinnamon Crisp Cookies, mini muffelettos, fire grilled vegetables, mac and cheese with bacon, and our No Evidence Caesar Salad.
Ami wore the same dress that her mom Marie had worn when she married Ami's dad 36 years ago. Natasha Marie Bridal altered the dress for Ami with a few changes. That was a beautifult ribute to a wonderful marriage and the picture of her mom in the dress all those years ago is priceless.
Matt and Ami, we wish you all the best. Loved your setting and all of your guests were so nice. Your band was incredible with the seranade to you early in the evening Ami and then your send off in the limo. WOW....that's all this caterer has to say!
