This weekend was my step sister Vicki's wedding. Perfect sunny weather with pimms and croquet and giant chess in the gardens of a lovely manor house made for a very special day. Vicki looked lovely and she and Sam are now off on their honeymoon - congratulations both of you xxx My contribution was making the wedding favours for the table. Vicki had asked for the heart biscuits from my baking book threaded with maroon ribbon to match the bridesmaids' dresses. We packaged them in little clear bags with a sticker for the date of the wedding. The shortbread is a simple 2, 4, 6 recipe with vanilla seeds to flavour and of course topped with a dusting of obligatory edible glitter. We ate them with the coffee - a nice end to a delicious wedding breakfast. PS - apologies for the poor quality photo of vicki and sam - my camera managed to reset itself and save everything as RAW data in huge files that my computer just won't upload so this is a photograph of a print out - not ideal but at least it will give you an idea of how lovely they looked!
Hannah, this may be egg sucking time but there is a free software program called Irfanview which will allow you to convert RAW files to .jpg so that they can be uploaded.
ReplyDeleteIf you google for it you should find a place to download it from, it's very easy to use.
it's still a lovely photo :o)
ReplyDeletehow lovely to have your scrummy biccies as the favours! Lucky things
:O)
What a good idea to have biscuits as the wedding favours. I've been wondering about favours for my wedding...this has got me thinking!
ReplyDeleteThe favors are lovely, I made my Mamaws tea cakes (cookies) for my nephews wedding a year ago as favors. I cut them out with heart shaped cookie cutters and imprinted them with the letter stamp C and A and put one of each in a clear cellophane bag and tied the bag with a burgandy ribbon to match the bridesmaid dresses. We must be kindred spirits.
