Congratulations Jimmy and Rachel


What a beautiful sunny day for this waterside Ceremony and Reception. The colors for the day were black and white, with accents of turquoise and coral, and the theme was glam beach party. The chairs had white satin covers with black satin ties. The tables had white floor-length cloths with black pin-tuck overlays, topped with silver charges. The assorted centerpieces had white candles in sand with small vases of flowers around them, or tall vases with dried grass and lights. There were custom made chocolates in the shape of seashells and fish at the place settings. Each member of the Wedding Party was given a custom made, blue sparkling champagne glass.

Don't cake smash me!

Rachel’s cake was beautiful. It had four white, round tiers, each with a scattering of tiny, elegant, white, edible flowers. Two tiers had a beautiful white satin ribbon around the bottom, tied in a bow with a gorgeous brooch in the center. The cake was topped by the couple’s last initial. Jimmy’s chocolate cake had an anchor in the center with rope around it, all edible of course. Obviously he’s into the water, especially since he and Rachel ran through sparklers, onto a dock, and drove off in a boat!

One really funny part of this Reception was the First Dance. Halfway through the dance, Rachel stopped and yelled “Wait!” She and Jimmy then pulled out their cell phones and updated their status on Facebook as “married”. Rachel said, “Now, it’s official!” and then they continued on with their dance. So funny, and very appropriate since they reconnected on Facebook.

They wanted a great fun dance party, so our dance floor lighting added the ambiance they wanted. To top it off with the perfect touch, we had a custom monogram with their names and wedding date projected onto the dance floor, and it was gorgeous. What a great wedding day!  Congratulations Jimmy and Rachel, and enjoy Antigua!
