Today I had the honor to be a part of a beautiful celebration of life for a man that has left a beautiful legacy behind him. Sulers Chaiseree, the father of a dear sweet, fellow trisomy momma friend of mine, Kay.
This celebration of life was just that, a celebration. When I leave this earth I can only hope I’ve impacted lives to have such a beautiful and bountiful turnout as Lex did.
Everything was all about HIM. His life, his favorite things, and his favorite people. From Tacobell’s hard shell tacos, Burger King’s whoppers, Jets Pizza, a beautiful Thai food spread including sushi! A Ben and Jerry’s ice cream cart and an Elvis impersonator! Oh! And did I mention there was even karaoke!
I was asked to create a charcuterie spread and when Kay gave me the idea of an Elvis theme, I was SO excited! I worked so hard to not only find Elvis inspired decor, but to come up with charcuterie style items that could showcase Elvis on a plate, or well… a charcuterie cup.
Fools gold loaf sliders, Memphis style deviled eggs, gummy pink Cadillacs to represent the car he bought his mother, some Elvis stickers, Elvis hot sauce, a microphone, paper vinyl record table covers, a disco table runner, savory hunka hunka burning s’mores, and I even made a chocolate blue suede shoe!
I had so much fun creating this! THIS is why I love what I do.
