Congratulations Richard and Michelle

This Ceremony and Reception took place at the Galveston Railroad Museum, and what a cool place! The Ceremony was outside in the gazebo, with palm trees lining the sides, a vintage locomotive in the background and a thick row of orange and red rose petals lining the aisle. Afterwards, guests went inside for the cocktail hour, where they were greeted by a fantastic guest book table with a card box covered in moss, pens for signing which looked like little wood logs and floral print cards for guests to fill out with predictions for the couple’s future.     

The colors for the day were red and orange and they were tied together beautifully. The tables had ivory floor-length cloths with orange/red satin runners and orange/red napkins. The centerpieces were low wood boxes filled with either grass or fresh flowers. Each was surrounded with red and orange petals and candles in amber votives. Each place setting had a small burlap favor bag with seeds to plant. This couple did a great job bringing in a natural, organic feel to the day. The cake was a perfect match with its two square, white tiers with small red and orange flowers atop a stand filled with cupcakes, all with red and flowers on them as well.

The trains outside the museum provided a special touch to the day. After the guests finished dinner, many of them went outside to check out the trains, which were open for viewing. Michelle and Richard got to take some amazing photos in and around the trains. One even had a “Just Married” sign on it, so they could stand on the caboose and wave goodbye to the guests.

After the bouquet and garter, the Newlyweds ran though a shower of red and orange rose petals and went off to their new life together. Congratulations Richard and Michelle!!
