Candace and Josh are a seriously vegan, humorously quirky and life enjoying couple:
Their table numbers were Muppet figures and their first dance was accompanied by Kermit, the frog. Tiny Ninjas popped between pine cones on the pimento and gold tables, sat on the napkins and gave the saturated and elegant design a funky touch of childlike fun. Who called a green Ninja their own, was the lucky winner of one of the centerpieces: wrought iron candelabras. An enthused quilter herself, Candace decided on quilt making instead of the traditional guest book: her guest wrote or drew on recycled cotton squares, which will be made into a blanket of happy sentiments...
Their rehearsal dinner had everybody fight each other via Wii games - so it's not really surprising that gender attributes also don't quite matter for the unconventional twosome: Josh cried with joy when he saw his girl enter over the romantic little bridge to the ceremony site of the Sycamore lawn.
Sierra Nevada beers, Yellowtail red wines and Frey white made the vegan list and Diana Temple served a delicious vegan meal. I loved the Ratatouille stuffed tomatoes and the Bruchetta bar. (Don from Twenty1West will do a "mashed potato bar" in Martini glasses for Dan&Danilea's Malibu beach wedding on April 5. I'll report!!)
What's a Vegan cake made of? This is Candace order: "Carrot cake bottom with butter cream frosting, cream cheese in between the layers, Italian mocha espresso with Ganache for the middle layer with that scribble lace stuff in white and then the Italian mocha for our top but with the white butter cream frosting to balance it out...."
