Jeni & Michael - July 16, 2011

It's been a few weeks since I've had the opportunity to share a wedding post, and I'm so, so excited to share these awesome images of Jeni & Michael's wedding by the famous Jennie Andrews of Jennie Andrews Photography! Three years ago Marble Slab Creamery catered our very first wedding in Knoxville and had the privilege of working alongside Jennie. She's ultra talented and always so much fun! Keep reading and you'll see what I mean...

Jeni and Michael chose to get married at one of our favorite venues, Butterfly Gap Retreat in Maryville, Tennessee. BGR is in a lovely secluded setting and offers a ton of outdoor photo opportunities. Remember, I mentioned that Jennie is a lot of fun? Well, when we arrived at BGR to set up for the reception this is what we first saw as we drove up the driveway...

 ...Michael and Jeni being whizzed around the property in Jennie Andrew's little red Mini Coop for photo ops. Yep, our day started off with a big laugh!

Back to Michael and Jeni...we met this fun couple earlier this year at a Winter Open House event at Butterfly Gap Retreat where we featured our Portable Slab. Jeni decided right then and there that she wanted us to bring the slab back for her wedding and booked us on site (she wanted to make sure she snagged our SLAB for her date!).

Later, Michael and Jeni met with me for a Tasting Session where they chose four ice cream flavors to offer their guests--Birthday Cake, Black Cherry, Chocolate Swiss, and Vanilla--along with their favorite mixins.

Yes, the SLAB really is cold!

This was our first opportunity to work with Peggy Love (Plan it With Love) and obviously she enjoyed the Chocolate Swiss! After tying all these chair sashes, Peggy deserved a treat! The reception hall was lovely, of course.

Thank you, Jeni and Michael, for choosing Marble Slab Creamery to be a part of your special celebration! We wish you scoops of happiness!
