The Reception

Here is my Mother and Brother-in-law eating some delicious hors d' oeuvre (that Joseph and I did not get a single bite of).

Everyone mingling and eating the hors d' oeuvre after a short tour through the faberge egg exhibit. Cheeckwood was so wonderful to open the exhibit just for my wedding that day. This way Joseph and I could take pictures while everyone was looking at the Faberge eggs.


The mothers chatting. My mother is to the left and Joseph's mom is to the right.

More mingling.

The setting for dinner. It turned out even better then I had planned!

One of the tables.

This is a close up picture of the menu. We dined on beef and chicken with Potato au gratin and marinated tomato salad. The food was delicious! We wanted something that everyone would enjoy. We had to include beef since Joseph comes from a ranching family!

I wanted to give each guest a roll of mints for after dinner. I found these that happened to be in the same colors as our wedding colors. I had our names put on them. I had them placed on these sweet little silver trays right under everyone's name card.

This was how my chair was decorated to show where I was to sit. I thought it was just precious!

The food was set in a buffet style. So much easier for people plus you can get as much or as little food as you please.

My brothers look completely lost here. Who knows what they are doing?

Here Joseph is toasting our guests for coming all the way to Nashville to attend our wedding. He toasted our parents and then he toasted me! Such a sweetie! Click on the picture to see it close up.

Such cuties! My father with his grandson, Oliver.

Who knows what I was laughing at? It was a good time.

(What is with my flat hair?)

My Aunt Renee is placing little Oliver in Anna Reese's lap. Anna Reese was our flower girl. Oliver looks a little frightened.

I don't think I'm too happy! Where is my mommy?
