Inspiration: Green Wedding Design

I am in the process of planning a wedding on an organic farm in Boulder, CO.

To prepare for this exciting event I recently went to a dinner with my client Courtney.  Meadow Lark hosts a series of dinners at surronding participating farms.Hosted at Frog Belly Organic Farm an up and coming bio-dynamic farm nesteled in the foothills  north of Boulder offers local free range meats, raw dairy and organic vegtables.

After a very informative tour of the property we were seated at a long farm table next to a pasture of frolicking goats.

The dinner was served and presented from a converted school bus accompanied by a large grill. One long table sat all 40 guests for this fresh multi-course journey. The Menu included fresh baked pita warmed on the grill with hummus, dolmades of swiss chard and brown rice with walnut pesto.

The table was set with crisp natural linen cloths and an array of re-used accesories including wine bottle water carafes and glasses.Vintage cutlery was beautifully complimented with the eccentrically matched china.   This experience gave me a clear understanding of  what it will take to design a wonderful wedding on a farm for my client.  I learned a few things we  will definately strive for and for sure a few things we will  avoid.

Stay tuned for Courtney & Chuck’s wedding late this summer!
