Congratulations Sesar and Raquel

This Ceremony and Reception were held at a newer venue that has a large patio over the water. The water front Ceremony was followed by cocktails and a Reception in the ballroom. The colors for the day were purple, grey, black and ivory, and it was all so elegant. The tables had grey crushed taffeta linens, with black sheer embellished runners. The china chargers were topped with black napkins in bling napkin rings and custom menu cards that matched the ceremony programs. The high/low centerpieces had purple, green and ivory flowers surrounded by candles. The room was beautiful.

During dinner, we played three slideshows that were put together by Raquel’s father. He did a great job! After dinner, we moved on to the toast and cake cutting. Raquel’s cake had four stacked ivory tiers with purple flowers on top. Sesar’s ‘cake’ consisted of a dessert table with key lime pie, cherry cheesecake and other sweets. When we did the Anniversary Dance, the longest married couple of 47 years gave advice to the Newlyweds. At one point during dancing, in a Mexican tradition, a bunch of guys threw Sesar up and down in the air! Later in the evening, a traditional Columbian group came in and played live music for the guests for an hour. And all night long, there was a full dance floor.

The Bouquet and Garter came later, there was a lot more fun and dancing, and then the night came to a close. Sesar and Raquel shared their last dance together and headed off to their new life together. Congratulations Sesar and Raquel!
