Sebastian Mut and bride Mckayla share a kiss over cake

For Sound Engineer Sebastian Mut and his bride, Mckayla, a sales coordinator for The Cordelle, the food was of the utmost importance. As serious food fans, the couple regularly dines out and makes food a priority when they travel together (which is quite often, given Seb’s job).

Their favorite cuisine? All things Asian. “The second date we had was to ramen! It’s always been a big part of getting to know each other and sharing in our mutual love of Asian food,” said Mckayla. “Our wedding food was a bit of an ode to our dream of eventually honeymooning in Japan, Singapore, and Hong Kong. After including the ramen bowls, we also added some other Asian-inspired items here and there, like shaved chicken banh mi, miso hummus, and a wonton pork taco.”

To finish out the eventing, the couple opted for little tea pies for their guests in three flavors: chocolate fudge, white chocolate bourbon, and apple crumble. But for themselves and their wedding party, a 6" apple spice cake with white buttercream by Franklin's Ivey Cake was the perfect finale for their November wedding.

For Josephine and Jonathan Routon, it was all about the food being super local and sustainable. They had been members of the Bloomsbury Farm CSA and knew that the Califarmia Food Truck sourced their ingredients from them and other local farms. So they chose them to cater their wedding. "They parked their truck at the wedding and took care of everything," said Josie. "Their hot chicken bites and poblano burger were amazing."
