Congratulations Nicholas and Brianna
This Ceremony and Reception brought us to The Lyceum in Galveston, which we love. Not only is the room gorgeous, but the owner Cynthia is wonderful as well. The colors for this wedding day were black, white, and red. The tables had floor-length white tablecloths with red overlays. The centerpieces consisted of vases with red and white flowers. There were customized boxes of white candies for favors.
Brianna wore a gorgeous fitted to the knees, white, strapless gown. It had ruching on the skirt, an embellished brooch at the waist, and a dramatic bustle at the bottom. Underneath were some tall red high-heeled shoes. Brianna wore a veil for the Ceremony and a feathered accent in the back of her hair for the Reception. Her Bridesmaids wore red floor-length gowns with a gathered bodice and strap across one shoulder. They all carried beautiful full bouquets of assorted red and white flowers. Nicholas looked great in his black suit, shirt, and vest. His Groomsmen all wore black suits as well, but with red shirts. They all wore white boutonnieres.
Following the Ceremony, dinner, the special dances, a bit of open dancing, and toasts, it was time for the cake cutting. The Bride’s cake had three stacked, white layers. There were no embellishments except for a few red and white flowers on each layer, and a silver double hearts topper. It was very elegant. The Groom’s cake was chocolate with dark chocolate drizzled on top, with chocolate covered strawberries. After the cake cutting, it was back to the dancing.
The Money Dance and Bouquet and Garter came later in the evening, after lots of fun dancing – and this group loved to dance to everything, especially line dances. I always say that if the Bride and Groom love to dance, the guests will also, and this night proved it! They were on the dance floor all night long! Finally the night came to a close, the last dance ended, and the Newlyweds ran through sparklers to their car. Congratulations Nicholas and Brianna and enjoy your Honeymoon cruise!
