This Saturday was the 3rdannual Chester County Bridal Showcase. Together with the Phoenixville Foundry we put on another fantastic show of all the latest in food, fun and fashion for your wedding. This year we decided to go with a fire and ice theme which turned out to be a big hit.
The fire station, on large farmhouse tables, had three large vases filled with red and orange bell peppers with a large flower arrangement by Sommerfield Designs on top. The table also had many apothecary vases filled with different types of vibrantly colored peppers. Food for this station included chipotle grilled shrimp skewer, srirachi and honey glazed diver sea scallop skewer and Korean beef bulgogi.
The ice station consisted of a twenty four foot long table covered in silver shimmer linen. On the table were iron trees with crystals and at either end were two tiered ice sculptures. On the ice sculptures were this stations food options. These included three types of ceviche: shrimp, conch and crab in a lemon, lime and orange shell. Each sat on top of a shot glass rimmed with sugar or salt and filled with traditional, mango or pineapple margarita. On plates was a delicious crying tiger salad.
Brides, grooms and their families were able to sit down at the J. Scott Catering conference table to discuss their ideas for their wedding and how J. Scott could help make those ideas into reality. Fresh squeezed lemonade was offered to clients as light refreshment during their conference.
The grooms who came were treated to a room all to themselves in the Schuylkill River Heritage Center. There they enjoyed beer sampling, and a few snacks provided by J. Scott including mini grilled cheese and bacon slider, lump crab cake slider with old bay chips and mini chicken tacos.
We had a great time at the event, watching the fashion show, dressmaking contest and getting a chance to meet so many great brides. Thanks to the Foundry for once again holding the showcase, and to all the vendors who came out and helped, for the third year, make this event a great success.
