My boyfriend and I, along with friends and family, had the cutest engagement party last weekend to celebrate our friends Beth & Keith! The theme was "Louisiana" with jambalaya, white beans, salad and rolls catered from Tee Wayne, the 2011 World Jambalaya Champion! Desserts and dips were brought by the hosts. The food was outstanding! I highly recommend Tee Wayne! College SEC football was on the living room T.V. as well as the backyard T.V. We decorated with burlap, twine, hurricane candles, and wild flowers. We also had childhood pictures of the bride and groom adorning the mantle which I didn't get a picture of..booo! We did have some other fun touches, which you can see below! Enjoy! Happy Friday! xoxo, Julie
p.s. I am working on my picture quality and upgrading to a better camera over the weekend! Ciao!
