"For many people it was the best celebration they'd ever been to!"
Alexander Kraler, Brixen. Just imagine that you are inviting your guests into the woods and, apart from trees, there is not much else to see. Except that a girl keeps appearing with a new little delicacy and another girl comes round to serve you with wine. Your stand-up reception can be held anywhere: in the woods, in a vineyard, in a factory, in a barn...: buckwheat dumplings with South Tyrolean "grey cheese" eaten from a wooden fork, chard flan with chanterelle mushrooms and saffron, risotto with Kerner grapes, Granny Smith apples and mint, all cooked live in front of your guests on wood fires in a giant copper pot. Until finally a long, long candlelit procession leads somewhere... perhaps to a little dessert?
