Our Reception

 Happy Wednesday y'all! Let's pick up where we left off on Monday- on to the reception! 

Here are a few more shots of our old English bus that took us and the bridal party to the reception. I adore these pictures!


 





 We took a few more photos on the beach and then it was off to the party!



Oh hey there, husband and wife!


Our first dance to our song, "I Cross My Heart" by George Strait. The band was supposed to insert a CD for the real recording, but they chose to do a live version instead. Totally not what they were supposed to do, but in that moment you grin and smile and look at your new spouse and everything is OK! Complete happiness!



The view outside, with comfy couches and lanterns.


 My brother and Grandma dancing


 Mom and sis



 My Dad giving one of his many toasts


 My sweet Grandpa-the next day was the last time I saw him at our brunch! This picture I love.




Getting the party started on the dance floor! 




Our cake



Had the best time with these girls!


 Oh yes, we were on stage! I think this one was to Journey's "Don't Stop Believing!"


 Sweet moment











 I remember before the wedding us asking each other "Do you think everyone is going to have a good time?" Little did I know, you, your husband and your close family and friends set the tone for your night, and we were ready to celebrate. What a silly question. We all had a complete blast! 


 The dance floor was packed the entire night. We did not stop dancing!




Love train.



Just a little bit softer now....this shows how involved the entire reception was on the dance floor!!


The band offered their jackets to my sister, Dad and a family friend. We were all members of the band this night!

Sparkler exit!


I love this of my parents





I hope you all enjoyed our reception, it was the best night of my life. 
Kind of puts me in the mood to party, how about you?! 
Thank you so much for reading!! xoxo.
