There’s one thing that every guest is after during a wedding reception – a good piece of cake. However, the traditional wedding cake can present a wash of wedding problems, which is why you may want to consider the newest little nuptial trend—wedding cupcakes.
Wedding cupcakes can offer variety of cake options to match the variety of your guests. Not only will guests be sure to find a flavor that they’ll like, they’ll also be able to find one that meets their particular dietary restrictions. From sugar-free for your diabetic friends to delicious favors that are also gluten free or vegan-friendly, wedding cupcakes give you the chance to make sure that every guest can partake of your cake.
Mi Piaci means It pleases me. I had the opportunity to have lunch with Neal Bryant, the Director of Special Events, and I was definitely pleased with the meal. We started with crispy calamari with crushed red pepper and marinara and some fresh bread with olive oil for dipping and finished with fontina cheese and king crab filled ravioli served with mushrooms, tomatoes, asparagus and a white wine truffle butter sauce — Yum! I didn’t have room for dessert, but they have some mouth-watering choices.
Recognized as “one of the nation’s best restaurants” Mi Piaci is casually elegant and a visual delight. The space is sleek and modern featuring soaring ceilings, dramatic lighting and a wall of windows overlooking a pond. It is sun filled and bright by day; candle lit and warm in the evening — the perfect place for a rehearsal dinner or reception. They even do wedding ceremonies!
Mi Piaci is located at:
14854 Montfort Dr.
Dallas, Texas, 75254
972.934.8424.
You can also find them on Facebook.
