On the banks of the mighty Mississippi lies the Delta – a region famous for its agriculture, heritage, and the Blues. Its history is so rich in fact; it continues to shape the Delta’s character today. And, while fields of cotton are reminders of what was once the old South, the Delta prides itself on the great strides it has made by developing into an area of multi-cultural diversity. At the same time, social graces and southern charm continue to reign supreme. Therefore, it is only fitting that weddings are an occasion in which society abounds and the whole community participates.
After debutante balls, cotillions, and the pomp and circumstance that surround a young woman’s rites of passage, the events ultimately culminate in a proper southern wedding. For young ladies and their families that have planned for their wedding day their entire lives, only the finest gown, exquisite floral design, and a delectable southern menu will do. And, when the event of the season comes to a close, guests will leave Mississippi Delta wanting more.
But, perhaps wedding guests will appreciate quite possibly the best aspect of the South: the food. The Delta serves up almost any type of cuisine from Barbeque, hot tamales, and crawdads to steaks and southern home-style cooking. There is truly something for everyone. And, when the wedding and all its glory nears a conclusion and the irresistible food has nearly vanished, guests will leave singing the blues to return to the Delta.
