As we embark into 2019, we can’t help but feel excited for the events to come. At the same time, we must celebrate all the amazing weddings and events we’ve been a part of in 2018. This past year has been incredible, and we would like to say, “thank you!” From galas to weddings to everything in between, it has been a yearlong celebration and one we will not soon forget. To ring in the new year, here are some of our favorite events from 2018.
January
We kicked off 2018 with an open house at Hunter Valley Pavilion. Having a relationship with vendors across Knoxville is something we find very important for pulling off a seamless event. We love getting to see everyone from across the area showing off what they do best.
April
Hello, Dolly! Dolly Parton, that is. We were beyond thrilled to cater this year’s Dolly Parton Imagination Library Gala. This year’s theme was ‘Ferdinand the Bull,’ so we put our imagination to use to create a truly unique event.
More pictures from this unique and breathtaking event can be found at Temple Photography’s website.
July
Katherine + Jonathan
Talk about LIGHT! Having an afternoon wedding allowed this couple’s ceremony to be flooded with gorgeous natural light. The ceremony was held at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in downtown Knoxville and reception at Southern Railway Station. We enjoyed the opportunity to cater one of our favorite afternoon weddings for such an amazing couple. Congrats Katherine and Jonathan!

September
Heather + Chris
This was an outdoor wedding of our dreams. Held at The Quarry, this wedding and reception utilized nature’s beauty for their décor. Using elegant touches, they were able to achieve a whimsical theme. “We were beyond lucky to have the best vendors and team to help put together our dream day.”

December
Cassidy + Matthew
Now, this is how you ring in the New Year! To finish out 2018, we had the best New Year’s Eve celebrating with newlyweds Cassidy and Matthew. Our favorite part? When 300 balloons dropped onto the dance floor at midnight. Talk about a party!
