Congratulations Jaime and Clayton

This reception was held at Bay Oaks Country Club, which always does a great job. The colors were white and turquoise, with accents of bright pink, and they complemented the tropical/beach theme perfectly. There were beta fish centerpieces surrounded by seashells, a cake decorated with edible seashells, and a beach themed banner with the newlyweds’ names hung under the candy buffet. The tropical theme was perfect for this afternoon reception.

One thing I must mention is that there were so many babies and young children there. I love the little ones: I always want to run over and play with them all night long! Jaime and Clayton made some cute bags for each of the kids to play with. They included a wedding coloring page, crayons, candy, and toys. It looked like the bags were a hit. We could tell that the kids were having fun at the reception, as they were on the dance floor all afternoon!

There was a surprise during the bouquet toss (which we were in on, of course). We called up all the single ladies, as usual, and then gave Jamie the count of 3. But, instead of tossing the bouquet, Jamie turned around and handed it to her mom. She then used the mic to explain that she wanted to give the bouquet to her mom to thank her for all of her love and support in life and in planning the wedding. How sweet!

After a fun afternoon of food, cake, and dancing, the newlyweds wrapped up the reception and headed out to their honeymoon. Congratulations!
