A Seven Seas wedding

Cheers to fried fish & Christmas carols!


Caitlin and Michael, my friends who were just married over the weekend at Hartland's Seven Seas, have discovered the recipe for a truly memorable wedding dinner: one part all-you-can-eat fish fry, one part classic Christmas carols, and one part reception hall that looks and feels like Holiday Inn (the movie, not the hotel chain).



First, the fry: It was, as they say, everything. There was coleslaw, potato salad, potato pancakes, pasta salad, fruit, baked fish, fried fish, and grilled chicken just in case. Apple or tarter sauce? Have both. Few people serve simple comfort food at a wedding, but I'm so glad that Caitlin and Michael went for it — and that the Seven Seas knows a thing or two about a good old-fashioned Wisconsin fish fry.



Combined with the warmth of the room, garlands of twinkle lights, and Bing Crosby's crooning, this was one wedding meal I won't soon forget. As my senses mingled, I watched our table mingle — every one of us exuding happiness. It was a really warm and fuzzy moment, and one I'm so grateful for. Shout out to Michael & Caitlin, the Seven Seas, their fish fry, and Bing for giving us such an unforgettable evening.
