This hot summer day brought us to the beautiful Lyceum in Galveston. The gorgeous floor to ceiling stained glass windows are the perfect backdrop for a wedding. The colors for the day were purple and coral. The tables and chair covers were white, with alternating high low centerpieces consisting of tall purple and coral calla lilies or candles.
Cori was so gorgeous in her white embellished gown that was fitted to the knees. The bust and hemline were heavily embellished and the gown sparkled. The long train was so pretty! Cori opted to wear her hair down with it swept up on one side only, and it was perfect on her. She carried a full bouquet of purple and orange flowers hand tied with a ribbon. The Bridal Party wore knee-length dresses in coral and carried bouquets that were smaller versions of Cori’s. I loved the colors, as they were so pretty for a summer’s day. Ryan wore a black tux with a white vest and tie and a coral colored boutonniere. His Groomsmen wore black tuxes with coral vests and ties. The whole group really looked great together!
Following the Ceremony, which included a sand ceremony, and dinner, it was time for the special dances and then the dance floor was open. After a bit of dancing, it was time for the toast and cake cutting. The Bride’s cake had three, white, square stacked tiers. Each had a unique design, also in white. It was topped with a white bow. Ryan’s Groom’s cake had two chocolate, square, stacked tiers. Each was accented with chocolate covered strawberries and college and sport team logos (Texas A&M, Astros, Rockets, and a Texans helmet on the top.) I guess he likes sports? LOL In addition to the awesome cakes, Ryan and Cori had a candy buffet. It had all kinds of candy in purple and orange and it looked delicious. You know the guests loved that.
As soon as the cake was cut, we went right back to the dancing. We could tell that this would be a party crowd, and we were right. They danced to everything from Oldies to Country to Top 40. They came ready to have a great time!
After lots of fun, and the Bouquet and Garter tosses, the night came to a close. The happy Newlyweds ran through a shower of confetti and were carried away in a horse drawn carriage. Congratulations to Ryan and Cori!
