Congratulations Mike and Candace



This wedding of this fun-loving couple featured the colors of black and silver, which were reflected in the decor.  The tables had floor length black satin tablecloths, black chargers and grey satin napkins with bling napkin rings.  The chairs had black satin covers and silver sashes with bling accents.  To tie in with the colors, the bridal party wore long black dresses and the groomsmen were in black tuxes.

The Ceremony was beautiful: it was held right in front of the Lyceum’s gorgeous stained glass windows.  Following the Ceremony, we began the Reception.  The white wedding cake matched the wedding day colors, as it had black bands around the bottom of each tier and black bows on the front.  The silver topper said Mr. & Mrs. and had bling accents.  When it came time to dance, this crowd was on the dance floor from the first dance to the last.  Following the Last Dance, the Newlyweds made their exit and headed off to their new life as a married couple.  Congratulations Mike and Candace!

Congratulations Seth and Natasha



The rainy weather didn’t stop this very in love couple from enjoying their outdoor Wedding Ceremony and Reception: they brought in tents, danced the night away and had a blast!  The color for this wedding was lavender, which was reflected in the linens and flowers.  The table had floor length champagne cloths with lavender runners and the white garden chairs had lavender chair ties.  The centerpieces consisted of white and lavender flowers with candles surrounding them.  The dresses of the bridal party and the ties of the groomsmen were the perfect shade of lavender to tie it all together.  For the final elegant touch, we had a GOBO monogram of the couple’s names and wedding date projected onto a tent wall.

After the introductions, Seth and Natasha enjoyed their First Dance before they danced with their parents.  A delicious dinner followed before we moved on to the toast and cake cutting.  Natasha’s four tiered white cake featured a champagne colored dot design on alternating layers and lavender roses accenting the tiers.  The topper was made up of beautiful white and lavender flowers.  Seth’s chocolate cake was in the shape of Texas and had the Marine Corp logo and his college fraternity logo on the top.

The dancing came next and when it came time to dance, this group didn’t let the weather slow them down: they had fun on the dance floor from the first song to the last.  But finally the night came to a close and the Newlyweds ran under an arch of sparklers before heading off as a newly married couple.  Congratulations Seth and Natasha!

Congratulations Scott and Rachel



What a gorgeous day for a wedding!  The outdoor Ceremony was followed by the indoor Reception, both with accents of blush pink and peach to match the colors of the day.  The outdoor Huppah was white satin with beautiful floral arrangements at the corners, and matching flowers with starfish accented the aisle.  Inside, the tables had floor length white cloths with pink/peach lace runners.  The centerpieces consisted of bronze vases filled with pink and peach flowers.  Starfish leaned against the centerpieces holding up cards with the table numbers.  When the guests arrived, they found starfish nestled in sand tied to their favor cards.  For another cute beach accent, instead of signing a guestbook, the guests signed a wood anchor with the couples’ last initial on it.  That initial matched the one on their cupcakes wedding cake.   

 One thing we have to mention was Rachel’s gorgeous dress, it was a pale blush pink color that not only complemented the colors of the day but was absolutely beautiful on her.  After a wonderful wedding day with lots of fun and dancing (From the Hora to Shout to everything in between, this crowd loved to dance!  At one point, almost everyone in the room was on the dance floor singing along to The Piano Man.) the wedding reception came to a close.  Everyone shared in the Last Dance before the Newlyweds wished them all farewell.  Congratulations Scott and Rachel!

Congratulations Chris and Lucy



This Wedding Reception with the colors of turquoise and white with accents of pink was so pretty!  The tables had white cloths and the chairs had white satin covers.  The centerpieces were gorgeous arrangements of pink flowers.  There were white and turquoise lanterns and pom poms hanging from the ceiling, and to tie it all together, we had turquoise uplights along the walls and a GOBO monogram with Chris and Lucy’s names with a starfish design along the main wall.  The favors matched as well, with the guests getting pink cups at the bar or custom pink koozies for their beer. They did a really great job tying all the colors together!
 
After the entrance and First Dance, the buffet was open to everyone.  But, they all loved the appetizers as well, which consisted of a queso fountain, chips, and assorted salsas.  The toasts and cake cutting came next.  Lucy’s ombre cake was amazing.  It had three stacked tiers all covered in ruffles.  The bottom tier was the darkest turquoise, the middle was lighter and the top tier was the lightest.  To tie in with their beach theme, there were edible seashells and starfish on each tier.  It was beautiful!  The topper matched the beach theme as well, as it had a groom standing on the beach holding his bride, and the words “just married” were written in the sand.  Chris’ cake was just as cool, as it showed their love for their dogs.  The chocolate cake had a picture of their dogs on the top, and little dog bone and paw print fondant accents ran around the sides.  Too cute!

After the Parent’s dances, the dancing got started and this crowd loved to party!  They danced from the first song to the last, only stopping for the Bouquet and Garter and the Money Dance.  When the night came to an end, everyone joined in the Last Dance before watching the Newlyweds exit through sparklers and drive off in a carriage to their new life together.  Congratulations Chris and Lucy!

Congratulations Danny and Caitlin



This beautiful Reception featured the colors of navy and coral, with a sea theme woven throughout, and it was all beautiful.  The tables had floor length ivory cloths with navy satin napkins.  The centerpieces were either vases of floating coral flowers with submerged seashells or floral arrangements of coral and blue flowers.  For favors, each guest received a bottle opener with a seashell handle.  Each place setting also had a cute card for guests to fill in the questions about the Bride and Groom.  The table numbers were really cute as well: each number also had a picture of Danny or Caitlin at that age.  There were other accents that matched the sea theme as well, from the place cards sitting in a small sandbox to the card holder lantern with sand and shells in the bottom.

After dinner, we had the toasts and cake cutting.  Caitlin’s cake had four stacked white tiers with white lilies on top and a cascade of white starfish going down the front.  Danny’s cake was amazing!  It was a Cleveland Brown’s football stadium with his and Caitlin’s name and wedding date on the scoreboard.  So cool!  We then started off the dancing with the Hora.  It was so much fun seeing the Newlyweds lifted up in chairs while everyone danced around them.  They danced to Hava Nagila for a bit before more dance music encouraged everyone to keep dancing.  Later, when we played The Eyes of Texas, the floor filled with Longhorns, who also enjoyed the personalized UT cozies.  Dancing continued until we stopped for the Bouquet and Garter.  Then, back to the dancing until the end.  The Bride and Groom were showered with eco-friendly confetti before they drove off to their new life together.  Congratulations Danny and Caitlin!
