An Elegant Tasting: Bridal Shower Cake

I had the pleasure of attending the most elegant cake tasting at Elegant Temptations with my Mom and future sister-in-law and Junior Bridesmaid, Sofi.

Rosie, the owner and creative mind behind Elegant Temptations, showed us great hospitality. We indulged in over 12 flavors of cake and fillings. Deciding which flavors to use, was the hardest part. All the flavors were delicious! Sofi had the honor of selecting the two most amazing flavors, guava cream cheese filling and pineapple filling with vanilla cake...yummm!

Thank you Rosie and Elegant Temptation for a delicious afternoon!

Wedding Layout

Last week Tito and I finally had our progressive meeting with Pablo Maes, the Assistant Director of Catering at the InterContinental Miami Hotel in Downtown Miami. We were anxious to get all of our ideas on paper. Creating a layout for over 350 people is not a small task. Thanks to Pablo, this task was made easy.

We achieved many to dos on my list:
1. Decide on final layout of cocktail
2. Decide on final layout of reception
3. Walk-through Grand Ballroom and measure lounge areas
4. Discuss all vendor contract details with Pablo
5. Decide on LED lighting combo

We finally got all details and logistics under control. A very successful and relieved at the end of our nearly 2-hour meeting! Thanks Pablo
