The wedding
is over.Wow. I'm a little beat down from that sucker. For about three hours, it felt like I was running around like a headless chicken. We started cooking at at 2, by cutting fruit for the skewers. By the time I cut two watermelons into over 300 pieces, they were about ready to start with the skewers. My sister and her friend spent most of the time assembling skewers while I cut all of the crab rollups, made the trays for those.
Next thing I knew it was close to the time, so we started setting food out. All the food was out by 6:15 and people started showing up for punch about then. We ran out of punch, made some more but then called it good. But it took forever for the wedding party to come through and each and every member was verbally introduced to the guests. Finally, the people started to eat. We still have a ton of chicken left as Mindy had 300 drumsticks, for 175 people. Dad guess there were probably 130 people there, so there are a lot of chicken drumsticks left.
It went well enough even without my sister, that people asked if she was going to keep catering.
