This Ceremony and Reception were unique and beautiful. The Ceremony took place outside on the patio overlooking the golf course and the Reception followed indoors. The colors for this wedding were yellow and blue, and theme was kind of vintage/shabby chic. For a special touch, Byron and Meghan’s dog walked in the ceremony. He even wore a white collar for his attire.
Ceremony programs were something we’ve never seen before: vintage-looking, floral print handkerchiefs with the program printed on them. The wood and chalkboard-looking sign by them said ‘Take a program, dry your eyes.” That table had a vintage print floral tablecloth. The aisle runner also matched the theme, as it was beige, and a burlap-type material.
The Reception tables had ivory table cloths and the centerpieces were a bit different on each table. They consisted of an assortment of glass bottles with hydrangea and candles/candelabras, sitting on silver trays. The table numbers looked like old playing cards with the numbers one side. The yellow and white print napkins were tied with twine and had a small tag with the couples’ last initial. To tie it all together, we had amber uplights accenting the front of the room. They really pulled together the vintage feel of the room and accented the yellow beautifully.
Meghan was gorgeous in her fitted, strapless, ivory satin gown. She had a floral accent in her hair and carried a full bouquet of white and ivory flowers. Her Bridesmaids wore yellow, knee-length dresses and carried bouquets of blue hydrangeas. After the Ceremony, they all changed into matching blue tennis shoes. Byron and his guys all wore grey suits. They wore yellow ties while he wore a blue one. The little Flower Girl in her yellow dress was the cutest thing ever!
After the entrance and the couple’s First Dance (a friend played the guitar and sung while another friend played the bongo. That was a first, and they were good!), it was dinner time. The parents’ dances followed dinner and then it was party time. After a bit of dancing, we had the toasts and cake cutting.
The Best Man’s toast was hilarious and one of the funniest we’ve ever seen! He unexpectedly pulled out a guitar and played “Grow Old with You” from The Wedding Singer. Everyone was cracking up and we all loved it! The ‘cake’ was assorted flavors of cupcakes - yum! There was also one small cake for Meghan and Byron to cut for the pictures, and it was topped with two little wooden people dressed exactly like them. The cupcakes were arranged on a table with assorted glass plates and stands. The table was covered in ivory lace tablecloths: they were the perfect touch.
After lots more fun and dancing, and the throwing of the bouquet and garter, the night came to an end. Byron and Meghan ran through sparklers and drove off in a golf cart. Congratulations to the Newlyweds and enjoy your honeymoon in the Dominican Republic!
