Hehehe alright I've made you ladies wait long enough!! Here are a few shots from our gorgeous AHR reception in Alexandria, Ontario at my parent's house:

 

These are the favours my aunt MADE for the reception ... they're boxes of almond candy thingies:

 

Our custom cupcakes from Clever Cupcakes in Mtl:

 

Our gifts and some of the food from the caterer:

 

My father built the deck everyone was on specifically for the party. It's MUCH larger than what they had before:

 

More to come....

One of our guests got so hot (it was about 35+ degrees celsius), she took a dip in the pool ... in her dress!!

 

What AHR for a Cuba wedding is complete without cigars from Cuba?

 

In the room with the cupcakes and gifts we had my parent's big-screen hooked up to a computer with our professional pictures streaming:

 

My grandmother with the children and the guests of honor - my parents donkeys and horses are right in their backyard, obviously behind a fence, but accessible by all the guests at any time!

 

I love this shot of my parents:

 

And some randoms so you guys can see my dress and shoes:

 

 

 

And this is how my father treats his neighbors ... heheheh (they're actually really great friends):

 

And that's it!! Unfortunately there weren't any shots of the bar that was set up outside.We had an open bar and it was decorated with starfish and tule and I made up a bar menu with was in a frame on the counter ...
