Blogging the Bride: The Tasting

Last week, I went along as Nicole and Chris had their tasting at their venue, The Intercontinental Boston… holy yummyness! Everything was so beautifully presented and tasted so fab, they had really tough decisions to make. I loved the way that the chef at The Intercontinental chose to present the plates. For both the appetizer and entree courses, we tried four different options, which were first presented to the table so we could see what it would look like plated on wedding day, then each of us were given a sort of modernized bento box with all four options, which made it really easy to go back and forth between all the options to see which one we all liked the best!

Luckily we had Jill of Person + Killian on hand to capture all the deliciousness…

Of course the dessert was my favorite. How adorable are those brownie pops and mini ice cream cones! And I TOTALLY love the presentation. I should have thought of those for my wedding! Would have fit in nicely with the rest of our burgers and fries menu!

I really love to join couples at their tasting (and not just because the food is usually pretty good). I always feel like it’s one of the first times throughout planning, along with trying on dresses, where it really sinks in that this is really happening. They’re REALLY getting married! It’s a really fun thing to witness and be a part of.

Tell us about your tasting! Do you agree? Was it one of those peak moments during the planning process? Or if you haven’t had your tasting yet, are you looking forward to it?
