A beautiful wedding with some road bumps
We had a beautiful wedding and reception at Franchesco's. The food was great and it truly was a wonderful evening. Several people stated that we had a beautiful wedding but there were some hiccups. After the ceremony, there were our signature drinks out for guests but they were not labeled and several guests thought it was iced tea and orange juice but it was an old fashioned and a malibu and pineapple. I actually thought so myself until someone said something to me. A big deal for those sober guests in the crowd who thought it was tea and OJ. Luckily no kids got any. When I arrived an hour and a half before the ceremony, the guest place cards and favors were not displayed as I was told they would be. So, myself, both moms and bridal party members had to take care of this. Not a huge deal but I gladly would have stayed later the previous night to ensure this was done. I was told however that it would have been taken care of. Somehow at least 2 tables did not get cake, while other tables were offered seconds. Again it was a beautiful day and there is always something that goes wrong at a wedding. But these things seemed pretty big and made the day a little more chaotic then it needed to be.
