Another Beautiful Wedding.
Woman in the Middle | September 29, 2014This past weekend we went to our third wedding this year (although I just realized I never told you about the wedding in January…I will have to fix that…). All of the weddings we have gone to have been lovely, different from each other and wonderful! But lets get on to all the delightful details of the most recent celebration!.
This wedding was for Allie and Tony. I have been friends with the bride’s mother since high school and have known the bride since she was born. We were seated at a table with some relatives from my friend’s side of the family. My friend’s maiden name and my married name are the same so it took a bit of explaining to the others at the table that we were not related in any way. Family in heart, but not in blood!
The wedding was held in a beautiful Catholic church in San Diego called “St. Gregory the Great.” The church is fantastic inside , but I was not taking photos of the church, I was just admiring. The photo below came from the bride and groom’s website.
The groom was handsome, the bride was stunning, and I love this photo I took of the two of them during the ceremony. Don’t they look sweet?
The reception was held at the Maderas Golf Club in Poway. It was a lovely venue. Cocktail hour was outside on the patio, which allowed us to admire the views of the course, lake, and surrounding hills.
After the cocktail hour we moved inside for dinner and dancing. The main color of the wedding was a pretty dusty pink and the flowers on the tables were that lovely soft pink. Some tables had high flower arrangements and some had low ones. My table had a high arrangement, which I took a photo of, with my crazy family in the background making silly faces. I didn’t find out about the silly faces until I looked at the photo. Sigh!
On one wall of the reception ballroom they projected the bride and groom’s names, which we all thought was a nice touch.
Dinner was delicious. We had three choices: chicken, salmon, or vegetarian. Between the four of us we had selected all three and I can tell you they were all yummy! I didn’t think to take a photo of dinner, I just dug in and enjoyed!
The cake was seriously delicious. We would have taken another piece (or five) in a heartbeat, not that we needed it! It was surrounded by flowers and highlighted by simple gray ribbons on each layer.
I caught the bride with her proud parents during the reception.
The bride and groom are now off on their honeymoon to Greece. We know they will have many wonderful years together!
