    Edible Centerpieces | The Perfect Pear Catering Company

    So lately I have been pretty obsessed with organic wedding decor. By organic I mean very natural free flowing design that seems to have evolved right from the Earth itself. I've seen some beautiful posts on Style Me Pretty lately that showcase weddings that have captured the beauty of nature so perfectly. You can see the trends in everything from venue selection to bouquets and favors all the way to edible center pieces. That's right... edible center pieces. I had the privilege of shooting some photos for the fabulous Rachel Deremer, owner of The Perfect Pear Catering Co. here in Jacksonville Beach. She has been making these edible bread basket center pieces for a while now and they are such a hit with brides and wedding guests. Not only are they beautiful to look at but they are practical and delicious. A variety of breads arranged with fresh herbs accompanied by the most scrumptious assortment of dipping sauces you can imagine. I just love how the baskets showcase the beauty of the food colors and textures all while giving your guests something delicious to munch on before dinner is served. If you are looking for something unique and possibly an alternative to expensive flower arrangements, consider fresh herbs and edible centerpieces. Your guests will love it!
