FABULOUS New Restaurant in Austin! November 13, 2008

Filed under: Picture This..., Wanna-be-Foodie — Hannah @ 4:56 pm

Paggi House has re-opened and it is chic, Austin at its best! The husband and wife team of Tori & Tom are the managing partners. They have done an amazing job with the building and offer a private party room, gorgeous back deck/patio and a killer menu.

“The charming Paggi House, a historic Austin landmark dating back to the 1840s, is the site of our new fine dining endeavor. Nestled in a grove of trees along West Riverside Drive near South Lamar Boulevard, the restaurant overlooks Lady Bird Lake and the downtown skyline.

The Paggi House has recently undergone extensive expansion and modernization. The new design, which preserves the original character of the home, features an elegant, contemporary lounge atmosphere outdoors and an intimate dining experience within.

Both provide the perfect setting in which to enjoy an innovative drink menu, handpicked wine list and eclectic fine food created by Culinary Institute of America graduate and renowned chef Shane Stark.

Warm and sophisticated, yet relaxed and fun, Paggi House is the ultimate spot to connect with friends over cocktails or share an intimate dinner with someone special.”

Annemarie & Evan October 18, 2008

Filed under: Weddings — Hannah @ 9:03 pm

The afternoon was quiet. Annemarie and her sisters milled around the Bridal room as Evan greeted guests out front in Round Rock , TX on October 18, 2008. Annemarie announces she is ready. As Evan stands, with his back towards her in the rear garden…she moves across the rocky path. She arrives behind him and he turns….what a sweet moment. Evan’s words are lost at the sight of Annemarie in her jewel-toned gown.

The ceremony was illuminated by the reflection of sunshine on the Texas stone. Vows were exchanged and the family blessed the new couple.

The celebration continued at Gumbo’s . The scene was perfect. The food was wonderful. The music divine.

Best Wishes, Annemarie & Evan!!

Christie & Jeffrey October 4, 2008

Filed under: Weddings — Hannah @ 10:48 am

At the UT Club on a beautiful day in early “Fall” we find the preperation for Christie & Jeffrey’s wedding! Lanterns are hung, tables are set and the Longhorns kick-off in just a sec. The day started-off at Christie’s parent’s house with lakeside portraits…and then moved to the UT club where the men were waiting for the big moment. The vows were spoken at sunset….then, the celebration began! Dancing was the theme…with shades of chocolate and teal blooming all around. The setting was a perfect mix of elegance and rustic Texas charm. Smiles were abundant and glasses were raised in “Cheers” to the bride & groom.

BEST OF LUCK YOU TWO!
