It’s taken me a little while to write about the wedding we had this past weekend. We’ve just been so busy, but now finally I have the chance.
We were lucky enough to get to help Nicky and Ben with their wedding plans and be there on their big day. The wedding took place at Twigs and the day started out clear and beautiful, but the sunny skies did not last. As guests started to arrive, the sky opened and it started to rain. No, rain is not the right word; it started to pour, along with thunder and lightening. Willrich Bridal always carries a large number of umbrellas with us, so we just pulled them out and used them to help guests keep dry as they found their seats under the tent. The bride and groom are both very easy going and didn’t let the rain bother them at all. The rain also didn’t seem to faze the guests either. The site was packed with people who loved the bride and groom.
The bridesmaids wore tiffany blue with black sashes and the groomsmen were in black. The ceremony was set with black chairs and the aisle was dotted with candles with blue ribbons. The bride and groom had a beautiful sand ceremony as part of the service. The bride’s sister sang a solo during the ceremony.
Cocktail hour was enjoyed by the guests (it had stopped raining by then) as the wedding party completed pictures. This was followed by a buffet dinner. Tables were dressed with black and white linens. Blue and green flowers floated in shallow bowls as the centerpiece on half the tables and the other half had the beautiful bridesmaid’s bouquets as their centerpiece. Blue and black stones and crystals were sprinkled on each table. It was really quite beautiful. The cake was white with blue and black piping. The stand was clear glass and the glass support columns were filled with blue stones and daisies.
After dinner the guests were up and on the dance floor and rocked the night away. I think everybody was dancing. The bride and groom were obviously having a ball. After the garter and bouquet toss the bride even changed into a short white party dress and continued dancing.
At the end of the evening the guest lined up and gave the bride and groom a bubble send off. It was a beautiful wedding even with the rain. It just goes to show that even if things don’t go exactly as planned, with the right attitude the wedding can still be a wonderful event for everyone.
