Catherine and Stephens Wedding in Puglia May 2009


"We just wanted to say thanks to you and Aimee for organizing such a great tour of the venue last Sunday. The whole family enjoyed it loads and I think we made a lot of decisions for the wedding. "
Catherine and Stephen 18 May 2008

Aimee has just returned from a venue visit in Puglia with Catherine and Stephen and both sets of parents. Catherine and Stephen are getting married in Puglia in May 2009 and have chosen the superb venue Villa Palm Oasis where they will have their symbolic ceremony in the gardens of this fabulous hotel. This particular venue is so popular that it is booked almost 2 years in advance!! The venue is ideal for large groups of around 100-150 with a minimum group size of 60.

Everyone enjoyed menu tasting, trying out the various dishes to be served at the wedding - from “slices of smoked beef with baby artichokes in vinaigrette and flakes of parmesan cheese with balsamic and olive oil” to “fresh fruit with a blueberry torte with vanilla sauce and a strawberry coulis”. Such wonderful food for such a special occasion! Ahh - that’s why Aimee was out jogging bright and early on Monday morning – burning a (few?!) extra calories from Sunday’s tastings!

Catherine and Stephen also decided on the design, size and colour of their “Torta Nuziale” – Wedding Cake.

Later on Sunday our special floristry lady arrived laden with sample floral table decorations – just to give Catherine and Stephen an idea of exactly what she is capable of. They also looked through the portfolio of fabulous wedding reportage photograph albums from previous weddings.
So, all in all it was a very productive, not to mention enjoyable and well planned day. Catherine and Stephen were able to make many important decisions in the creation of their perfect Wedding Day.
