They say rain on your wedding day is good luck. However, if your event is outdoors, you might consider this anything but fortunate circumstances.

Luckily, the weather for this recent wedding in Blanco, Texas at Vaaler Creek Golf Club was gorgeous. An Event to Remember provided full-service catering – gourmet food, linens, floral decor and bouquets.

The ceremony was held outside by the water – stunning for photography! The reception was also outdoors on the patio – with a gorgeous view of the sunset. Congratulations to the newlyweds!

Last Thursday, the Red Berry Mansion hosted a huge social to raise money for Fiesta San Antonio. If you haven’t been to the Red Berry Mansion before, you’ll be kicking yourself when you view these photos! The mansion is beautiful and the property is perfect for any type of event – whether corporate gala or wedding.

An Event to Remember provided all decor, catering and drinks. We were honored to be part of this worthy cause and look forward to seeing many of you again at all the Fiesta festivities in April.

Looking for ideas for your fall wedding? Chocolate is an extremely versatile color, and when combined with a splash of bright color, the design can be taken many wonderful directions!

These photos are from a recent wedding reception at the Witte Museum. The bride selected Chocolate Brown Satin Linen with a White Crush Overlay. Matching Chocolate Brown Chair Sashes were tied to the white wooden chairs.

Guests’ taste buds were tickled with a dual entrée consisting of bacon-wrapped filet, chicken marsala, garlic mashers and mixed vegetables.

Hope we got your reception decor ideas – and taste buds – dancing!

The International Center – located in downtown San Antonio on Saint Mary’s Street – is a perfect reception location, equipped with a beautiful balcony view.

A few weekends ago we catered a wedding with San Antonio flare. The bride event selected bold, latin-infused colors – bright, fun and passionate!

The buffet style dinner featured beef and chicken fajitas, rice and beans. All event linens were orange crush with red chair covers and chocolate brown accents. Centerpieces varied between tall and short glass, square vases with assorted flowers in corals and reds, accented with curly willows.

Earlier this month the Fort Sam Houston medical department graduated a group of talented medical professionals. The soldiers at Fort Sam, and across our great country, continually put their country first, and we were honored to be part of the graduation ceremony for these fine men and women.

The reception was decorated in the medical program’s colors, maroon and royal blue. From linens, floral decor and “finger food” hors d’oeuvres – including brochette, chicken diablo (chicken wrapped in bacon), veggies with dressings, cheese array, egg rolls, mini quesadillas, assorted tea sandwiches – An Event to Remember was there to salute the graduating class.

If you are seeking a reception facility, the Witte Museum has fantastic event spaces from which to choose. We’ve catered quite a few events at the museum, and this past week we had the honor of catering the “Summer in San Antonio” themed dinner and reception for San Antonio’s chapter of the International Special Events Society.

The cocktail and hors d’oeuvres reception was hosted in the Ruiz House followed by dinner in the Memorial Ballroom. An Event to Remember’s linens were olive green pintuck with coral seat sashes. The centers of each table were in festive “Summer in San Antonio” spirits with lime wedges, pineapples and orchids — a colorful, fruitful combination. All cocktail tables at the reception were covered with orange rosette linens.

Our catering service included the following meal:

Appetizers

The event was wonderful, and we thank ISES for the opportunity to provide full service catering for such a spectacular event.

One of our latest events took black and white to new heights with splashes of colorful floral infusion.

The ceremony and reception were held in San Antonio at Oak Hills. With an elegant linen scheme of black and white, splashes of fucshia, coral, mango and magenta lit the way for a exciting, colorful wedding. Centerpieces on the tables rotated between tall glass cylinders topped with floral bouquets, and elegant bunches of bouquets atop the crisp, white linen.
