Ann + Matt

September 16, 2015 by Purple Onion Catering Co.

The Torpedo Factory Art Center | Winter Wedding

Ann + Matt celebrated each other with a beautiful white and green winter wedding at the Torpedo Factory Art Center.

Everything about this wedding was winter — pinecones, ferns, wooden elements — the entire space was turned into a beautiful rustic, cozy affair.

Everything was absolutely perfect and we definitely could not have done it without all of your hard work… I am amazed at how flawlessly you transformed the Torpedo Factory and served food and drinks to our large crowd.

-Ann & Matt

The couple opted against the traditional wedding cake and instead delighted guests with something more of their style — a dessert bar with Matt’s favorite dessert, cannoli, and Ann’s favorite dessert, chocolate covered strawberries! We even made customized boxes so guests could take and enjoy the desserts at home.

Ann + Matt’s food selection was very important and the final menu was perfect for their envisioned celebration. Together, we created this menu:

Mini Lump Crab Cakes
