Cultural Elegance: A Greek-Inspired Affair

From the moment guests arrived, they were transported to a world of elegance and Greek-inspired splendor. The cocktail hour menu was a culinary delight as the aroma of freshly cooked Saganaki, a Greek dish of flaming cheese, filled the air as talented chefs prepared it right before guests' eyes. Passed hors d’oeuvres with mouth watering spanakopita and tiropita were a delightful prelude to the culinary journey that awaited.

Guests dined on specialty black matte dinnerware, with each place setting featuring a magnolia leaf scripted with the guest's name, adding a personal touch to the evening. The guest dinner tables were a vision of opulence, dressed in alternating marine velvet, navy Italian crush, and Nile blue satin linens. The accompanying black satin napkins were elegantly folded in a vertical pleated band, creating a striking contrast. Gold chivari chairs with navy cushions provided comfortable and regal seating.

The entree offered a choice between the black pepper crusted filet of beef tenderloin and verlasso salmon filets with a lemon dill cream sauce. It was a culinary journey that delighted every palate.

For dessert, the couple chose a masterpiece from Le Petit Gateau – a towering five-tier wedding cake adorned with cascading flowers that matched the centerpieces. Layers of perfection were served with whipped cream, fresh strawberries, and a drizzling of raspberry coulis, creating a heavenly dessert experience. Mini Greek desserts were also available, adding a touch of tradition and sweetness to the evening.
