This Reception took place at one of the most beautiful
church halls we’ve seen: Helena Hall at St. Helen’s Church in Alvin. It was the original church, so there are high
vaulted ceilings with floor-to-ceiling stained glass windows. It’s
gorgeous! There was ivory pipe and drape
across the front of the room onto which we projected a GOBO monogram of the
couple’s names, last initial and wedding date.
It was the perfect backdrop for the room, the First Dance, the cakes and
the toast. The room was equally pretty,
decorated in ivory to match the day. The
tables had floor-length ivory table cloths with embroidered overlays. The centerpieces alternated between shorter
vases of ivory and pink flowers and tall candelabras. Each place setting had a gold charger and
ivory napkin with gold napkin ring. For
the final touch, each chair had an ivory satin cover with a taupe tie.
After the entrance, First Dance and dinner, we had the
Toasts and Cake Cutting. Jennifer’s
Italian Cream cake had four stacked off-white tiers, each with a darker ivory
lace look detail. At the bottom of each
tier was a bling band of rhinestones.
Pink roses made up the topper and the cake sat on a gold cake
stand. Thomas’ chocolate cake was
amazing. It had two stacked chocolate
tiers decorated to look like a fishing scene.
The Father/Daughter Dance and Mother/Son Dance came next, and then it
was party time! This group was hilarious
on the dance floor. They danced to
everything and did such moves as the snake, the invisible jump rope, and
everything else you can imagine. It was
such fun watching them all! 
After a lot of fun dancing, we stopped for the Bouquet and
Garter. Then, it was back to the dancing
until the end. The Newlyweds made an
exit through bubbles and headed off in a limousine to their new life
together. Congratulations Thomas and
Jennifer!
