Because the only props outside of the breakaway bottles will be the food on the tables... I consulted Chef Todd Richardson (the chef of the Boathouse) for ideas on how to make the tables look great...
A Few Ideas for tables:
FAMILY STYLE:
-society women-2-3 tier tower of muffins/scones/cookies served with tea and coffee/sparkling cider
-bearded men- eating chickens and mashers/asperagus?
-table with pasta
-table of women with Salad and Bread and 'champagne'
-Table with elevated cake or pie?
-little cones/canapés or visually outstanding things like this? (did the picture have smoked salmon?)
-a table with an elevated pizza?
Food props (budget $200-$300?) (aim for LESS!!!)
Shopping Lists
