The "interuption" to our first dance!

[montegobay09]

Hi ladies,

 

I was reading comments on my planning thread and someone mentioned that they can't wait to see how things turned out for my AHR. I hadn't even thought of posting that but here it goes!! (just another reason to look through my pictures again!! I just can't get enough!)

 

 

Here is the link to my planning thread if you want to see what we had planned... http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...8-3#post799466

 

 

Here is a close up of one of our centrepieces...the other ones that were almost identical to this had either all turquoise candles or all brown candles. We used these turquoise and clear "stones" on all the tables...I think.

 

 

 

We also had 5 tables that each had 3 martini glasses filled with turquoise water and one white floating candle in each. The turquoise and clear stones were scattered around the glasses too...they were very nice and simple actually. You can kind of see them on this table.

 

 

 

You can kind of see in this one where we had 5 tables with the round vases (there's one to the left in the front). Those were also filled with turquoise water and had white floating candles in them. I'm not sure if we put the "stones" on these tables but I'm super happy with how I think they kept with our theme of being nice and simple! yet there were very pretty!

 

 

Here is my cousin/Goddaughter/Junior bridesmaid entertaining our guests by interupting our first dance. Many said it was the highlight of the night! She picked up the microphone about 1 minute into our first dance and said "That's enough slow dancing for tonight guys, let's pick up the pace a little!" Then the DJ began to play her fiddle music! She proceeded to do some step dancing, some fancy foot work on the chair, played the spoons...she was so entertaining and so darn cute! She's very talented and she's only 11!

 

A good ol' Cape Breton wedding (if you know what that is!) - and it's so not me, hence getting married in Jamaica! but my guests enjoyed it all!!

 

 

 

Here's us watching her dance. I had tears in my eyes cause I was so happy that she got to feel so special. She was so excited!! I had to keep looking at DH so that my guests wouldn't see me cry!

 

 

I think that's it. Sorry I didn't get better pictures but after our week in Jamaica I was so sick of carrying a camera around that I just counted on others to do it for the AHR!!!

super cute... I am an East coast girl too and that would have made my day... She also must feel super special to you to think of doing that. You have obviously made her feel special throughout her life.
