Go Inside Teresa Giudice's First Valentine's Day With Her New BF Louie Ruelas
The Real Housewives of New Jersey cast member celebrated her love with stunning flowers and an incredible heart-shaped charcuterie board.
Last week, Teresa Giudice's new boyfriend, Luis "Louie" Ruelas, showed her some early Valentine's Day love with the most gorgeous heart-shaped floral arrangement, and when the holiday officially rolled around on February 14, The Real Housewives of New Jersey cast member and her beau continued the celebration with even more beautiful bouquets.
"[Treemendous Florists by Flora Linda] at it again!" Teresa captioned a photo of three festive floral arrangements with eye-catching pops of red, pink, and white. Teresa's go-to florist shared additional photos to her company's Instagram account, writing, "Still gushing over these arrangements I had the pleasure making for [Teresa's] first Valentine’s Day with [Louie]."
In the last year, Teresa has made it clear that she always has two staples on hand for any special occasion: over-the-top flowers and a charcuterie board. With the flowers clearly taken care of, Teresa also turned to one of her favorite charcuterie board companies, Plated by D, to create a Valentine's Day spread for her and her love to enjoy. The heart-shaped plate was topped with a variety of cheese, meats (including a pepperoni rose), fruit, and edible flowers.
Just before the holiday, Plated by D owner Dylan Elias gave us her top tips for creating an elevated charcuterie board. "To take it to the next level, add garnishes such as edible flowers (adds color and dimension), herbs, honeycomb (I love to put this on top of a brie wheel), tomatoes on the vine, or my personal favorite, sprinkling some pomegranate seeds throughout the board," Dylan wrote. "If you don't have items such as edible flowers or something to sprinkle...give hints of color to create some sort of color scheme. For example, add your meats and cheeses and garnish with green grapes, green olives, pistachios, and maybe even green apple slices up with the skin showing."
