Its all done! We even incorporated a lot of spanish food into it. Tostones, empanadas, pernil, arroz con pollo all during the cocktail hour. It was so exciting and made me so happy the wedding is right around the corner. Im not even freaking anymore!

Re: I finalized my menu at JT today!
When has/is everyone picking out their menus? And cake? And linens? A lot of girls say they 'got the call' to come down and take care of it but I'm wondering how soon before the wedding is this usually done? I might be going to a bridal expo at my RH next week so I can ask, but I was just curious!

they have empanadas
WOO HOO Lea, getting the big stuff done.
I can tell you're a foodie...and youre from queens so you can find ALL kinds of foods there!
oh i really am, and I LOVE empanadas...this place by me has the best dominican empanadas YUMMMMM...i think i eat spanish food a couple times a week lol
I'm dominican so trust me I know how addicting those things are...I feel kind of guilty because they are deep fried and you cant have just one bite either.
i know after i eat them, im like oh great what did i just do but they're so good. Now im craving them and i get that with rice and beans and the place by me makes the best salsa verde sauce i guess thats what it is bc its green and when you mix it with the rice and beans its the best thing haha
ooooooooooh thats the sauce I put on the rotisserie chicken...you are soooo evil !!!
i use it on everything now...i always ask for extra sauce, i put it on their rotisserie chicken too, and i even use it to dip vegetables or whatever i am eating

I think its typically when the wedding is a month away or so.

IM definitely a foodie and I LOOOVE my spanish food. I have food for the Puerto Ricans and Dominicans that are gonna be there. Tostones and Maduros! Theyre gonna be so happy lol. I was getting so hungry when we were doing this. I even added Paella!
Oh and I have the list right here. Spanish food they carry:
Arroz con pollo Arroz con gandules platanos maduros Pernil al horno Paella Ropa Vieja Pupusas Empanadas Tostones!
omg! FH is Salvadorean and pupusas are a MUST! if I tell FH that JT has pupusas, he'll cancel our RH right away and push the wedding back just to have it at JT. He even told me he was going to look around for a vendor to provide pupusas.

Check with your RH! Who knows! I remember when we first looked at the JT book they had menus from around the world. The food I listed was on the 'suggested items from Puerto Rico' list.
