Congratulations Serge and Kasia


This wedding featured the colors of white, silver, and blue, which are so pretty in the winter. There were white table cloths, white satin chair covers, and light blue chair ties. The tables had centerpieces of white and blue gladiolas in a tall vase. Each place setting had a silver charger topped with a white napkin holding a favor for each guest. The favors were nice square glass coasters with a thank you note inside. They were tied in an organza bag with Belgium chocolates. You know everyone will love those!

Kasia (isn’t that a beautiful name?) looked so pretty in her white strapless gown. It was embellished all over with detailing and glittering beading. Her elbow length veil matched with its beaded edge. She carried a bouquet of assorted white/ivory/antique white flowers. Her Bridesmaids wore floor length gowns in a pretty shade of soft medium blue and carried similar flowers with soft pink accents. Serge looked so handsome in his black tux and shirt with grey tie. He wore a white boutonniere. His groomsmen wore similar attire except their ties were white.

After a seated meal, it was on to the special dances. Following more dancing was the toasts. After a very funny toast by Serge’s brother, including the now famous line, “Dang, I’m fine!” It was on to the cake cutting. Their white, three-tiered cake had different designs on each layer, and was topped with a white fondant bow. It was very elegant. No smashing was involved, and then back to the party.

A neat aspect about this wedding was the mix of families and guests. The Groom is African and the Bride is Polish. Some guests flew in from out of the country to attend, from as far as Switzerland and the Republic of Congo in Central Africa! It was so nice to see such a variety of people talking and laughing and dancing and enjoying each other so much. It was obvious how much everyone really, truly loved being together. The families were just so welcoming to each other.

After the bouquet and garter and more dancing, the evening came to an end. Serge and Kashia bid farewell to their guests and headed off to their new life as a married couple. Congratulations!
