Katie and Tyler first met while they were in in middle school. It wasn’t until their final year of high school these two connected and began dating. Marc and I are so excited to capture their upcoming wedding tomorrow at the beautiful Pavilion at Orchard Ridge Farms. As for Katie and Tyler’s favorite foods, they include anything in the slow cooker and Thai food. Marc and I are always looking for something easy to cook on busy weeknights with the kids and creating a recipe that included both of their favorites was a fun challenge. Yes, we made slow cooker Thai curry chicken. This even made Marc’s list of all-time favorite recipes that we have ever created. We paired this spicy dish with a perfectly delicious refreshing ginger pineapple cocktail – complimenting all the complex flavors of our curry dish. We hope you enjoy this yummy recipe and we are looking forward to sharing in your special day tomorrow.
