September is Wedding Month in Connecticut!!

What a season!!!!  Well, the economy is certainly on the rebound!!  We are busy!  September reigns again as the busiest wedding month of the year – though Becky still insists winter weddings are the best…  That is another post!

The Cantering Caterer was just selected to cater and provide event design work for Earthplace in Westport!  This is their annual fundraiser and their first actually at Earthplace!  The space is fantastic.  It features dozens of acres of woods and hiking trials, a wildlife sanctuary (with some pretty amazing rare birds of prey!), a play-based pre-school, a dynamite space for a corporate retreat, or even a fantastic outdoor wedding.  Please be sure to check out their event calendar – you would not believe the things they are doing right under our noses…!  Visit, join, participate!

We are doing an event at an estate (one of our favorite clients homes!) this weekend featuring Senator Coburn from Oklahoma, 2 Events for the new David YurmanStore in Westchester, and getting ready for Rosh Hashana next week…

We have a very intimate and special wedding in Milford – the property is fantastic, a really nice wedding at the Fairfield Beach Club, – the last wedding we did there saw a full moon that simply melted into the horizon, and we are providing food for a clients jet as their family travels to Asia for a quick vacation… Lots going on!

We are pleased to announce that Jeanette Buttner has joined our staff. Jeanette runs our offices (and helps keep Christian organized!!!!!!) and assists with customers. She is usually the happy voice you hear on the phone. She is near the completion of a BA from WCSU in Danbury, CT. Jeanette sings with The Naugatuck Valley Community College Choir and Vox Concordis in Waterbury and Saint Thomas More Chapel at Yale University in New Haven. Jeanette is a member of the Performing Arts Collaborative in New Haven and is currently working on their production of The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
We are very excited to have Jeanette on board.

We have enjoyed this summer’s harvest from our own organic vegetable plot! Our success was overwhelming (well, my mother and Becky’s success)! The tomatoes, lettuce’s, squash, peppers… You name it! We will definitely expand this next year – don’t miss out on the late season corn available now – the sweetest of the year! My kids will even eat it without butter – for those that know my kids, that is a big deal!!
