Congratulations Carlos and Jessica



This wedding Reception, featuring the color purple, brought us to a beach-front venue which was perfect for the Memorial Day weekend.  The long rectangular tables had floor-length ivory linens with centerpieces of white and purple flowers.  The Bridal Party wore knee-length purple dresses while the Groomsmen wore gray suits with purple bow ties.

The three-tiered white wedding cake matched the purple theme, as it had air-brushed purple designs on the bottom tier and purple and white flowers cascading down the front.  It was so elegant!  When the cake was served, they brought out assorted fruit with chocolate fondue, which the guests loved.  As a special treat, later in the evening sliders were brought out for the guests to enjoy.

There was one aspect of this wedding I hadn’t seen before: there was a mailbox with assorted post cards next to it.  Guests filled out post cards with words of advice or well wishes, and then dropped them in the mailbox.  During the course of the next year, someone will occasionally mail a postcard to Jessica and Carlos.  What a fun way to relive your wedding during your first year as Newlyweds!

After a fun night of dancing, even times when the dance floor spilled over onto the carpet, the night came to a close with the Last Dance.  Jessica and Carlos then, instead of doing a formal exit, stayed in the ballroom bid farewell to their guests.  Congratulations Carlos and Jessica!
