The Peddler Steakhouse Greenville Rehearsal Dinner

One of the things I love most about what I do is that it gets me out. Not like it gets me out of the house (I do that on my own most days), like it gets me out to see some really awesome places that I normally wouldn't go. Like going out to The Peddler Steakhouse here in Greenville, SC.

Tucked back in the woods up on the North Section of Greenville, the peddler is probably one of the coolest steakhouses I've ever been in (and I've been in a few because lets face it, steak is probably the best thing ever). Now its one thing to go out and have a steak by yourself. It's another thing to eat a steak with all of your best friends surrounding you. And that's just what Katie and Jerry did that special night before their wedding.













































Thanks again for having me guys!

Sassafras Greenville SC Rehearsal | Tabatha and Thomas

How I had never been to Sassafras here in downtown Greenville, SC is beyond me. I do have to say it won't be my last time though!

Tabatha and Thomas had their rehearsal dinner with close family and friends the night before their wedding. There was just one person missing, Tabatha's Mom had been in a car accident on the way to the rehearsal. I still can't believe how Tabatha was able to relax and have a good time. She wasn't critically hurt but seriously WOW! I guess that says something about the strength of this family. Don't worry, her Mom did make it to the wedding the next day and looked WAY better than she should have. She even brought her same, perky personality along.

The rest of the night was filled with delicious food, cold beverages, Thomas's birthday cake, and some homemade rum cakes! Tough to beat that!

Gigi and Charlie's Pre-Wedding Festivites!

There are weddings, and then there are WEDDINGS. Gigi and Charlie had a WEDDING I don't think I'll ever forget. If I could compare Gigi and Charlie's wedding to a dinner it would definitely be a full 7 course meal. First off we started with an appetizer of Gigi's Bridal Portraits. Then we followed up with a small soup of the Thursday night bridal dinner. Next up we savored the salad of Friday's bridal luncheon. After that, we had the sorbet cleansing of Skeet Shooting at Harris Springs for the gentlemen. Next we had the pre-main Course of Rehearsal Dinner followed by another serving of sorbet at the pre-wedding luncheon Saturday Morning. By this time I was primed and ready for the main course & dessert of their Wedding & Reception later on Saturday (but that is to come in another blog post!).

Held mostly in some of the most beautiful homes in Greenville, this was a beautiful weekend filled with lots of extravagant food and laughter. Checkout some of my favorites from the first 6 courses of the meal!
























































































































Still hungry for more? Gigi and Charlie's wedding post is coming very soon!
