Upon heading inside the
ballroom, the guests were greeted with a large custom drawn timeline of Carol
and Glenn’s relationship. I’ve never
seen one done like that, and it was awesome!
The beach and lavender accents continued throughout the reception. The tables had floor length ivory linens
topped by lavender overlays. The
high/low centerpieces alternated between tall vases of lavender and ivory hydrangea
and white lanterns with candles. Each
place setting featured silver chargers and custom lavender coasters. For favors, the guests were given small bags
of chocolates in purple wrappers and custom lavender koozies. There was a basket of lavender flip flops
near the dance floor, so the guests could dance the night away in comfort.
Carol’s three-tiered white
wedding cake had white roses accenting the layers and a lavender topper that
said, “God gave me you.” Glenn’s groom’s
cake had blue and white Dallas Cowboys stars on it – so I imagine they’re his
favorite team. For the cake cutting, the
couple used a special plate with a wedding scene on it and forks with the words
“bride” and “groom” stamped into them. Other
accents found throughout this day included our bespoke GOBO monogram, which projected
the couple’s names onto the dance floor, and our dance floor lighting, which
helped add to the fun mood. This was
perfect for Carol, who changed into pink Converse with a blinged-out toe. She was ready to party!
After a picture-perfect
day, the evening came to an end with the newlyweds driving away in a horse
drawn carriage. Congratulations Glenn
and Carol!
