A wedding reception was held in our north ballrooms this past Sunday 10/10/10. The 100 guests arrived at 5pm for the cocktail hour which was located in the entry hall and featured a large bar, stationed appetizer tables, a photo booth, and a guitarist to help create the perfect atmosphere. During the cocktail hour and through the entire reception the guests were able to relax on the outdoor patio where the bride's aunt had created a lounge area using benches and tables of her own design.After the cocktail hour the guests entered the grand ballroom for the reception. The room was decorated with different colorful paintings that the bride's aunt had done. The centerpieces were wooden houses that the bride and her bridesmaids had painted, and in each house the windows light up in different colors. The room was also transformed each half hour with different colored lighting, which every time the lights changed colors it gave the ballroom a different feel and look. The fun loving bride and groom sat at an amazing sweetheart table that was specially designed for them and it brought out the couple's personality.
For dinner the caterer had several different food stations setup in the small ballroom. Guests were able to choose what they wanted from a pasta station, carving station, and a Greek inspired station. For dessert the guests enjoyed a piece of the three tiered wedding cake.
The guests took pleasure in the colorful and fun theme of this reception and from the moment it began to the moment it ended you could tell how much each guest truly enjoyed the wedding. Everyone danced the night away until it was time to send their best wishes off with the bride and groom.
