Real Wedding - August 14, 2010

I know I'm reeeeeeally late with this one, but it took awhile to get the pictures of Lacy and Alan's wedding from back in August. Remember this post? Well after spending several hours outside in their bathrobes, Lacy and Alan were able to get back into their rooms and fixed up for their beautiful summer wedding....

Lacy is the only bride I've had so far who's been brave enough to make her grand entrance from the 2nd floor - so dramatic! She met her father at the base of the steps and then proceeded down the aisle toward the Harbor Gazebo.

Full disclosure: Lacy did a "dry run" down the stairs in her shoes a few weeks before, just so she'd feel more confident that her entrance wouldn't be THAT dramatic!

The reception was in the Tent and she did a great job working out the colors and lighting. She did a mix of two different shades of blue for both the accent linens and the paper lanterns hung from the ceiling.

Alan, being from England, needed to have a proper traditional English wedding cake. (This was a supplement to the larger American wedding cake.) Inside, it was similar to a fruitcake, but we affectionately called this the "boozecake" because it was marinated in brandy for several weeks prior to the wedding. They also had English truffles on the dessert table, which was the first thing Alan asked me about when I saw them during the fire: "Are the truffles ok?" I thought that was so funny!

Photobooths are so fun! This one was provided by MiPhotoBooth.

Congratulations to Alan and Lacy, one of the most fun couples I've ever had the pleasure of working with!
