Congratulations Ryan and Ann

Last night we had the pleasure of providing entertainment for a beautiful bride and handsome groom. Their winter theme featured the colors of plum and olive, and they looked so elegant together! The favors they had for their guests were Christmas ornaments that were hanging from a Christmas tree right by the sign-in book. They were hung with personalized ribbon featuring the bride and groom’s names. The ornaments were in plum, olive, and silver, to match the winter theme. The whole effect was so pretty! The centerpieces consisted of matching ornaments in tall glass cylinders – very cool - and Ryan and Ann had stockings hanging on their head table.

Their family members were so much fun! They were on the dance floor from the first song to the last. There were so many people dancing to The Chicken Dance that they almost overflowed the large dance floor. The bride’s family is Czech, so you know that they filled the floor to Polka songs as well. Speaking of them being Czech, there was a toast that paid homage to their heritage. All of the immediate family members were called onto the dance floor and given tiny little glasses filled with some kind of alcohol. From their expressions after drinking, it must have been pretty potent! We knew that side of the family was large but we didn’t realize how large until we saw them taking a group picture: it was ¾ of the room! They were so funny, dancing as they got their picture taken.

And, once again, I noticed that there were a lot of kids at the wedding. There was one adorable little girl in a pink frilly dress that stole everyone’s heart, including mine. She loved to dance and loved the music and was just having a blast as everyone danced. It’s always fun seeing the little ones all dressed up and having fun at a reception.

So after a great evening of food, cake, drinks, and plenty of dancing, the night came to a close. Ryan and Ann headed out through a shower of bubbles and flower petals into a car filled with balloons. Congratulations Ryan and Ann, and have a great honeymoon!
