Their ceremony was held inside the Chapel and officiated over by their friend Michael. After the ceremony the 80 guests came outside for the cocktail hour and live music by an acoustic duo. They were so good!!
After the cocktail hour I invited guests to the open air tent in the courtyard for dinner with help from planner Cheryl-Anne from Kast Events. The tent was decorated with floral arrangements by BlueBird Meadows. The family style dinner catered by Snap Pea came out and it was delicious!! During dinner I had a mix of soft rock and classic soul playing. After dinner we had the touching and heartfelt toasts by several guests and attendants, and then I invited everyone into the chapel for dancing.
Mandy and Cole had their first dance to “L-O-V-E” by Nat King Cole and I opened the floor to everyone with some Motown and dance music that kept the dancing for the next 2.5 hours. Cole and Mandy had picked lots of great 80’s and 90’s music for dancing! I added a few of my favs to the playlist including “Dancing On My Own” by Robyn. The crown LOVED that song!
We paused for the surprise visit by Two Roosters Ice Cream truck and buffet of home made pies. I was in heaven!! After everyone had dessert, we went back to dancing to some Top 40/dance music until the end of the night.
I ended with “This Will Be (An Everlasting Love)” by Natalie Cole.
Thank you so much Mandy, Cole and Cheryl-Anne! Thank was so fun. I can’t wait to see the pics from photographer Brian Livingston.
