Jennifer and Jason: October 16, 2010

Jennifer and Jason planned for a perfect fall evening ceremony and reception. Although it was breezy, the temperature was mild and there was a lot of bright sunshine.




The guys posed for some photos in the lobby before the ceremony and then it was the ladies turn. I love these hot pink flowers with the black and white color scheme!







Outside the garden patio was set for the ceremony. Jennifer elected to use our columns for her altar arrangements as well as our drape for the back-drop.












Inside the Prosperity Ballroom, everything was set in white with black and pink accents. Look at this adorable cake!




The Sweetheart Table featured a live floral centerpiece and underskirt lighting in white.




The guest tables had black napkins and fresh floral centerpieces in hot pink.




Everyone seemed to have a great time and then it was time to send Jennifer and Jason off in grand style with a sparkler departure!


Best wishes to Jennifer and Jason for a long and happy marriage!
