Congratulations Austin and Amanda

Yummy!
The colors of this evening Reception were eggplant and silver, and it was so elegant. The tables had floor-length eggplant satin cloths with silver burnout overlays. The chairs had white satin covers with eggplant satin ties. The centerpieces were silver iron candelabras with additional candles on the table. At each place setting was a silver bell favor, which the guests rang as Austin and Amanda made their entrance and their exit.

After four toasts, we moved onto the cake cutting. Amanda’s white cake had three stacked tiers, with tiny eggplant-colored fondant flowers cascading down the front, with a silver double heart topper. Austin’s chocolate cake had two stacked tiers, with chocolate ganache dripping down each tier, and chopped up Reese’s cups on the top and around the bottom. It smelled so good!!!

A little bit softer now....  You make me wanna SHOUT!

We started the dancing with The Grand March, which is a tradition with many Czech, Country, and German weddings. The guests make two lines, one of ladies, one of men, and two people lead them around the room. The lines intersect, run along side each other, make a ‘tunnel’, and do all kinds of fun things. It ends up in a circle, with the Bride and Groom in the middle. That’s when they do their First Dance. Then, party time!

This group loved everything from Oldies to Country to Hip Hop to everything else. They were a great bunch and really enjoyed having fun together. But finally, the night came to an end and the Newlyweds made their exit to a limo, with bells ringing. Congratulations Austin and Amanda!!
