PLAN #1 - Tara's & Jason's Wedding Continued

 

Jason has purchased two rolls of 33 mm film with 36 exposures on each roll, and has given his camera to a friend to take the wedding shots that he and Tara have decided upon. The expense of the development can be absorbed in the weeks to come.

 

 

FILM: $10

 

Tara has a friend from school who plays piano and she has agreed to play for the wedding. A CD player is going to be setup for the Reception and will feature the couple’s favorite songs.

 

The couple has decided on serving bowtie pasta, a vegetable tray, a cheese and condiment tray, wedding punch, white and chocolate dipped strawberries, the French Silk wedding cake and a Groom’s cheesecake.

All the items on the menu have the advantage in that they can be prepared the day before the ceremony. The recipe for bowtie pasta allows this version to be served cold.

Bowtie Pasta

 

Prepare two 16-oz boxes (or large boxes) of bowtie pasta as directed on package, drain and cool.

 

- A spoon of olive oil will keep the pasta from sticking together.

- Add Italian dressing to the pasta to your preferred consistency.

- Toss in a few small black, pitted olives and red sun-dried tomatoes if desired.

- Serve cold. Be sure to chill serving spoons with pasta.

- Decorate with parsley springs and a dash of paprika if desired.

- Use any pretty serving dish you already own, or borrow one from a friend.
