A friend asked me to help with a small gathering she was having at the beginning of May. Her brother in law was getting married and they were going to have the ceremony in her backyard. She wanted to do something special for this small gathering of six people. Together we decided on a purple and green colour scheme and a very simple menu of appetizers and dessert. After the ceremony they planned to go out for a meal so we kept the food simple and light.
 We scattered beautiful white tulips. They were so pretty and were perfect for this Spring event.  |  These tissue paper flowers were so easy to make. We used command hooks and fishing line to hang them.  |
The menu was very simple since the guests would be going out for a lovely dinner directly following the ceremony.
 Caprese Salad Bites |  Asian Sesame Meatballs |
Shrimp Cocktail. These were my favourite!
They were so easy.....just put a small amount of cocktail sauce in the shot glass and pop a shrimp in them.

The cake was classic and elegant and made by my friend Jenn at Heavenly Sweets.
 Chocolate Covered Strawberries...yum! |  There were tiny silver balls on the cake..pretty. |
