The bride and groom had a beach theme and color throughout the reception As guests stepped into the Gallery, the cocktail hour was set up with bistro tables and bar, serving signature drinks Bay Breeze, Tequila Sunrise and Blue Hawaiian. A selection of wines and beers were also served.

The ballroom was set up with turquoise overlay linens, and each table had it’s own designation such as Maui or Aruba. The bridesmaids were also in the turquoise color theme as well as the groomsmen and vests. The ballroom features an entire wall of floor to ceiling windows that overlook the Marina on the Occoquan River. Saturday’s guest count was just over 100 guests so the room easily accommodates the 14 guest tables plus dance floor. The venue is able to accommodate over 200 in this room, and has adjacent rooms for ceremony. On a warmer day, the ceremony can take place on the first level on a charming covered patio that also overlooks the river.

During the cocktail hour we served appetizers featuring Silver Dollar Crab Cakes with Roasted Red Bell Pepper Sauce; Baked Artichoke-Parmesan-Spinach Dip; Sweet and Sour Meatballs; and Assorted Domestic and Imported Cheeses and Crackers.
Our bride was gluten intolerant, and they had a small wedding cake they cut so she could eat something safe. But the rest of the party was able to enjoy one of Ruth’s original creations: the Brownie Wedding Cake. Three tiers of brownie bites featuring Red Velvet with White Chocolate Glaze; Peanut Butter and Chocolate Glaze; Cream Cheese Brownie; White Chocolate with Butterscotch. We served plates of the bites to each table and not a crumb came back to the kitchen!
The venue is a perfect spot for a catered romantic wedding reception, conveniently located and ample parking. Our bride and groom were adorable and we wish Annika and Eric the very best!
