π π¦ Sips and Shells π¦ π
Our Welcome Party, the night before, βthe night before.β
Nothing fancy, just a fun night at our home so our out of town family and friends could see where we live and experience some New England eats π€
On the menu:
π¦ͺ Oysters and Clams (thank you
@kerry_bacon1 !)
π¦ Connecticut style Lobster Rolls
π€ Shrimp cocktail
π₯£ Clam Chowder
πΉ Little brother
@rafiamato bartended, making my 2026 fav- Sarti Spritzes!
π« Meanwhile mom stuffed tons of blue cheese olives for our Dirty Martini signature drink at the wedding (his not mine)
And lastly, THANK YOU to my friends and sister in law for helping me finish the name tags this night for the wedding! 166 names had to be tied with ribbon and organized by table number! Took us almost 2 hours!
