The CHALLENGE

HOW  THIS ALL STARTED: & THE CHALLENGE

Who is doing this project
Friends of the bride trying to navigate the Interesting issues with Weddings and Food Allergies and how to make it all work.

In the beginning:
Not too very long ago my daughters friend got engaged. A Truly wonderful thing and she asked my daughter to be IN the wedding. Awesome… but then REALITY started setting in. not only is she (the bride) in college but she also works. So does my daughter. But being the friends we want to be for her, we volunteered to be of help in the planning..

Good grief, WHAT were we thinking, hahaha!
Seriously since my dd is to be Matron of Honor, that does actually go with the territory doesn’t it? And I volunteered as the only person available that’s retired & theoretically have time to research things for the bride.

Which Leads us to WHY I have begun this blog..
Many members of  brides family and a number of friends have some pretty heavy duty FOOD allergies & BOY do they run the gamut. From Milk to Soy, Pineapple to Tapioca. Also, pretty much ALL Nuts and MANY grains (wheat/barley/corn)

As she, (the bride) searches for her Venue, she is discovering that the Majority of venue sites, not only Require that you use “Their” catering, but that they cannot generally accommodate the food allergy issues…

I am CERTAIN that other brides are probably encountering the SAME kind of issues in Their wedding planning.

Sooo, What does this all MEAN?? We, (her helpers) are now Trying to create a menu for her Wedding Reception Buffet that WONT cause a number of guests to end up in ER..

A good plan, right !!!!
