Congratulations Ron and Kristen


This reception was at the recently renovated University of Houston Hilton. If you haven’t been there in a while, you should go check it out. The hotel is completely updated and looks beautiful! The colors for this wedding were coral and yellow, which complemented the spring wedding. The tables had white table cloths and napkins, with white satin chair covers. The centerpieces consisted of alternating yellow flowers or white candles. To tie in the colors perfectly, we had seven amber uplights in the room, accenting the walls and the cakes. They transformed the room and give it an elegant glow!

Kristen was gorgeous in her white gown. It had a sheer overlay with beaded, lace accents. The skirt bustled beautifully, with layers cascading down the back. To match, she wore a long white mantilla style veil with a lace accent around the whole edge. It was so beautiful! Kristen carried a full, pretty bouquet of assorted coral colored flowers. Her Bridesmaids wore coral, floor-length satin dresses with rhinestone brooch accents in the back. They carried coral colored calla lily bouquets, wrapped with satin ribbons. Ron was so handsome in his black tux, vest, and tie. He wore a coral colored calla lily boutonniere. His Groomsmen wore black tuxes as well, but with coral colored ties and vests.

After a nice seated meal, two great toasts, and some dancing, it was time for the cake cutting. Kristen’s cake had four white, separated tiers, each with yellow trim and minimal yellow, edible floral accents. The top consisted of yellow and coral flowers, with a small owl Bride and Groom. Ron’s cake was the UT Longhorn shape, in burnt orange, of course. After the cake cutting, it was back to the party.

After a few dances, and the Money Dance, danced floor was really going crazy! From the Cupid Shuffle, to the Boot Scootin Boogie, to Boom Boom Pow, to Suavamente, this crowd was full of dancers (and good ones, too)! At one point, Kristin was doing the dance to “Single Ladies” with a crowd around her. Then Ron joined in and it was hilarious: they were awesome!

After the Bouquet and Garter and plenty more dancing, including the last dance, the night sadly came to an end. Kristen and Ron said their goodbyes, ran through a shower of petals, and headed off to their honeymoon in Paris and their new life as a married couple. Congratulations to the Newlyweds!

  1. It was great working with you guys last weekend! Wow, as an “event coordinator”, you really do know your wedding details....great blog post! And your pictures turned out great with that little camera…now you can add photography to your services! ;)

    The evening went SO smoothly for me shooting video, since it was so well coordinated by you guys, and the video shows…it was one of the best I’ve ever done! I’m going to recommend you to my brides, and have added you to my wedding resources webpage. Thanks for making the reception a lot less stressful for the other vendors!

  2. Rusty, it was great working with you as well. After seeing your videos, I now know why you are so highly recommended. Great work! I will definitely give your name to our Brides and Grooms who are looking for a professional videographer. We look forward to working with you in the future!
