This pretty summer day brought us to a country club with windows on three walls. What a great view! The colors for the day were black, ivory, and jade green. The tables had black table cloths and were topped with alternating high/low centerpieces. The high ones had tall vases with jade hydrangeas and curly willow branches with mini lights. The low centerpieces consisted of candles.
Stephanie was so pretty in her strapless gown. It had a corset back and a gorgeous bustle with pick ups. The asymmetrically wrapped waist was accented with beading that was also scattered about the skirt. She carried a bouquet of assorted white flowers, hand tied with ribbon. The Bridal Party wore pretty jade green knee-length strapless dresses with a black sash at the waist. Charles wore a black tux with white vest and tie and his Groomsmen wore black tuxes with jade green vests and ties. It was all very pretty for a summer’s day.
After the entrance, the Newlyweds went right into their First Dance. Then came dinner and the Parent’s dances. The toasts and cake cutting followed. Stephanie’s cake had three stacked tiers with scroll accents and black ribbon at the bottom of each. It was Italian Cream and you know everyone loves that! Charles’ cake was chocolate, with wings on the top and a helicopter sitting next to it. Sorry if I can’t describe it right, but he’s an Apache pilot in the military – how awesome! After a Money Dance and an Anniversary Dance (The longest married couple was 50 years!) the party was on.
This was a diverse crowd, so they danced to everything from Oldies to Salsa to Hip Hop to Country to Merengue to Top 40 to everything else you can imagine. They were a fun group! After the bouquet and garter and a lot more dancing, the night came to a close. Charles and Stephanie ran through a shower of bubbles, got in their Limo, and headed off to their honeymoon in Belize. (This was totally planned by Charles as a secret and announced to Stephanie at the Reception.) Congratulations to the Newlyweds!!
