Wedding Day Recap: The Reception Starts


After some relaxing and cooling off, it was time for the reception to start.  While we were waiting for all the guests to get into the room, the bridal party (in their recessional pairs) planned their entrances.  I thought about asking them to figure this out before the wedding, but didn’t think anyone would go for it, so I was SO excited when they did it on their own!

“The Way You Make Me Feel” (by Michael Jackson) came on and J and I peeked around the corner to try and see what each couple did, but it’s so much better on the video that my cousin took.  They were fun and hilarious and it started the evening off just right!  I do have to say that my favorite entrance was my cousin and one of J’s college buddies who came in posing and taking pictures of each other!














J hates being the center of attention, so we just walked in together... nothing fancy, with a stop for a quick kiss.













We sat down and our salads were served.  Our DJ ran down the head table and asked if anyone wanted drinks and brought them to all of us… he was a SUPERSTAR!  Once we were done with salads, the buffet was ready.  Here’s one reason I love my photographer… I have pictures of our amazing dinner!

I have to say, I was a little worried about the food… most buffet food is kind of bland and nothing to write home about, and we didn’t get the chance to taste our menu items.  Thankfully, I was SO wrong!  The chicken was amazing… the ham was SO tender and the potatoes and green beans had so much flavor to them that, if not for my tightly tied corset dress, I could have gone back for seconds.
