Congratulations Rex and Mandy

What a beautiful and fun Wedding Reception!  The colors for the day were powder blue and white, and the ballroom was so pretty.  The tables had white floor length cloths with either powder satin runners or powder blue sparkle organza toppers.  Each table was topped with a centerpiece of three vases filled with flowers and a floating candle, all surrounded by more candles. The chair covers on the Chiavari chairs alternated between blue lace and white tulle.  To tie it all together and add drama to the Reception, we had 8 Blue Uplights around the room.  After an upbeat entrance and a funny First Dance (this couple cracks us up!), the guests enjoyed a nice seated meal.

After dinner, we had the toasts and cake cutting.  Mandy’s cake had four stacked white oval tiers, each with white designs and a few blue flowers.  It was topped by a Bride and Groom topper which had the Bride in the Groom’s arms with her legs wrapped around his waist.  So funny!  Rex’s chocolate cake was made to represent the flag of the Philippines, where his family is from.  The Father/Daughter and Mother/Son Dances came next, and then party time!
 
This group was so much fun!  They were singing at their tables, dancing on the dance floor and at their tables, talking, laughing and just having a great time.  The dance floor was jumping the whole night and at one point a spontaneous Conga line broke out.  The Aggie War Hymn brought a huge group out on the dance floor as well.  After the Money Dance and Bouquet and Garter were over (the catcher of the Bouquet did a victory lap around the dance floor and the catcher of the Garter did his own victory dance as well, which had us all laughing), Rex and his groomsmen stripped off their shirts and danced bare-chested.  There were shirts and ties scattered all over the dance floor: it was hilarious!  The guys lifted Rex up in the air for a bit and there was plenty of group dances and craziness on the dance floor all night long.
  
Finally the Last Dance brought the night to a close and the guys put their shirts back on.  The Newlyweds exited though a shower of bubbles and headed off to a fun-filled after-party.  Congratulations Rex and Mandy!
