Peonies, irises, and flowering herbs from the garden made wonderful spring centerpieces all month long. For a more formal bouquet, we matched pink and white orchids with blue delphinium. Edible flowers even made it on to our menu, with chive blossom vinaigrette and pansies garnishing plates.

At the end of the month, we snipped every peony we could find for a garden wedding at Nino’s! Congratulations to Caitlin Morelli and Robin Tuscano, who were wed Saturday, May 26th. Their two daughters, Coco and Lola, served as flower girls, and the entire wedding was adorned with silver mercury glass vases filled with gorgeous pink peonies. It was a beautiful evening, and we were so glad to be a part of the celebration!

As promised, here are some more pictures from our 40th anniversary. We received some wonderful gifts, including another Maltese Falcon (for a total of two!) and a beautiful new patio gate. Thank you to all of our staff, past and present, as well as our loyal patrons and friends for the wonderful custom iron gate. It will be gracing our patio entrance soon, taking the place of our antique gate which was stolen last year.

We also had a fabulous time last Monday at our cooking class! We prepared homemade ricotta gnocchi with pesto, chicken saltimbocca, and a shrimp, fennel, and blood orange salad in our kitchen. Of course, wine and hors d’oeuvres accompanied the lesson, and afterwards, everyone enjoyed a three course meal of the dishes we taught. Thanks to all who attended! And a special thanks to our great teachers: Nino, Linda, Kelly, and Micki. I hope everyone is now rolling gnocchi at home.

Last but certainly not least, Happy 65th wedding anniversary to Mr. and Mrs. Bennett! Pictured below is the cake and custom floral cake topper from their anniversary party at Nino’s. Also pictured, a lettuce wrap with rice vermicelli and i.think.i.can’s pickled carrots which we made for Rachel and Ian’s wedding tasting. Next month, check back for a look at what is sure to be a beautiful May wedding!
