Fall is in the air and with it all of the fantastic fall wedding themes and colors.  We had a great time working with the couple who got married at the Foundry this weekend, designing a very original look.  The bride decided to mix and match several colors and prints to create a rich look with lots of trendy flares.  Some tables had mulberry kiwi linens, a fun green zebra style sateen linen, while others had chocolate brown and forest green stripe linens.  These two styles of tables were accented with kiwi, chartreuse or eggplant napkins.

Flower on the tables were simple but vibrant with multi-colored Gerber daisies.  The Foundry was also given a makeover with assorted greener throughout; some of which had up-lighting to highlight the stairs on either side of the dance floor.

The couples menu was as complex and intriguing as their décor.  Hors d’oeuvre included vegetable potstickers, panko crusted scallops with bacon and chicken satay.  The highlight of the cocktail hour was the quesadilla station on the mezzanine featuring brie and papaya quesadillas, smoked chicken, wild mushroom and fontina quesadillas and chorizo and grilled corn quesadillas with cojita cheese.

The first course was a composed salad of Bull Blood micro greens and baby arugula with oranges, pomegranate seeds, shredded red onion, black garlic and Hawaiian black lava salt, drizzled with pomegranate vinaigrette.

The entrees included a seared tenderloin served with or without lump crab, topped with hollandaise, accompanied by potatoes au gratin and baby vegetable bundles.  The other entrée was a black sea bass with lemon zest, drizzled with lemon walnut oil, accompanied by wild rice pilaf with sundried cranberries and baby vegetable bundles.

The couples wedding cake was ornate with the colors of the décor and added silver edible beads. The cake was lemon with rich vanilla buttercream.  As always we thank the couple for choosing J. Scott to take part in their big day.  We wish them all the best in the future.
