Our Wedding – Reception
In case you missed it, here’s the Morning Of and the Ceremony.
I’m so excited about this post! Sorry it took me a while to get this last one up. It’s just so hard to pick which photos to post, there were so many to choose from. But any who, let’s get started… here are the details ♥
Our invites were from Wedding Paper Divas
Upon arriving, you will see all the party favors 🙂
They were vintage key bottle openers with place cards from WPD.
(useful & matched the whole wedding decor perfectly hehe)
One of my favorite thing about the venue were these gorgeous gold chandeliers.
It just really set the romantic mood and I also really love how the venue is already pretty on it’s own.
These gold chiavari chairs with the ivory cushions are everything!
Something that was on top of my list. I just had to have ’em hehe.
The table numbers were a little DIY that I put together 🙂
Everything I used were from Michael’s – Round wooden piece (for the bottom), Wooden Numbers, Glue Gun, Gold Spray Paint, lots of glitter glue and GOLD GLITTER! I love how these turned out and it was super easy to make 🙂
In all the flower arrangements on all the tables:
Baby’s breath, pitt, “pink O’Hara” roses, uringium pods, and blush pink spray roses.
My bouquet had tons of flowers that I love 🙂 I wanted it to be airy and full and have different shades & textures 🙂 The flowers I chose were: blush “Sophie” roses, “pink O’Hara’ roses, white ranunculus, baby’s breath, lacy dusty miller, scabiosa pods, and white spray roses.
oh my gosh, the DESSERT TABLE ♥
I honestly do not remember exactly what we chose for the cake, but I’m pretty sure it was vanilla with a really light vanilla filling and it was for sure some type of whipped cream frosting. I just remember it being so delicious! Nothing too sweet – everyone loved it! So it was seriously all gone by the end of the night 🙂 ♥
Ya’ll know I gotta have me some macarons! ♥ This was a serious hit! ahaha Everyone lovedddd it! I think we orderer 200 or so macarons? And guess how many I was able to eat that day!? ….ONE! lol I was sad, haha but so happy that everyone loved it 🙂
Our baker makes amazing cupcakes so we had to had some of that. Again, these had the same whipped cream frosting as the cake did! We requested for a mixture of vanilla and chocolate cupcakes 🙂 I remember by the end of the night there were 5 cupcakes left… best believe I took em all and ate it on the way back to our hotel haha.
If you’re wondering, the flavors that we chose for the macarons were
Strawberry, Pistachio, Lemon and Chocolate ♥
Cocktail Hour
Along with the open bar, we also had delicious appetizers.

Once we entered, we went straight to cut our cake.
The head table
Mailee, the Maid of Honor
Tyler, the Best Man
And the clinging of the glasses began haha
After the speeches there was a little surprise video from our family in the Philippines.
A lot of my family is in the Philippines so they weren’t able to make it and so, they sent over a super thoughtful video which truly meant so much to Tom and I. I honestly miss them so much and Tom and I can not wait to visit again. We are truly blessed to have such people in our lives.

time and catching up with all of our loved ones ♥
Ah! I can’t believe this is the end of this post!
