This Reception took place at one of our favorite venues: Bay Oaks Country Club. The colors for this wedding were cream and blue and they were so pretty for an afternoon wedding. The tables had floor-length ivory/champagne linens and the same color napkins tied with blue ribbons. The chivari chairs had chair ‘skirts’ in blue (we’ve never seen them before so I don’t know what to call them.) The chair skirts covered just the back legs of the chairs and they were really pretty. The tables had alternating high/low centerpieces of assorted flowers including blue hydrangea, white lilies, and others. At each place setting was a Crave cupcake as a favor for each guest. (Those were gone fast!)
Felicia wore a pretty, strapless off-white gown. It had a ruching down both sides with pick-ups on the skirt. The gown had minimal embellishment except for the sash, which had rhinestone and bead embellishments on the front. It was very elegant and perfect for her. She carried a beautiful bouquet of assorted white, blush and ivory flowers. Her Bridal Party wore knee-length gowns of a slate blue color that had a halter –style neck. They carried bouquets with a variety of flowers. Mario wore a black tux with a white vest and his Groomsmen wore black tuxes with blue vests that matched the Bridal Party gowns.
After dinner and the special dances, it was time for the cake cutting. The Bride’s cake had three white layers on a stand, each embellished with blue hydrangea and other flowers. Mario’s cake was awesome! It was one chocolate layer with a huge, edible, Starbucks coffee cup on top. The cup was at least eight inches tall and the top had swirled frosting that looked like foam with caramel drizzled over it.
After the Bouquet Toss, the afternoon came to a close. Mario and Felicia ran through rose petals, jumped into their limousine and headed off to their new life as a married couple. Congratulations to the Newlyweds and enjoy your Hawaiian honeymoon!!
