170 Guest Wedding Reception
We guests eventually made our way to Auckland Central in the rain...
But, firstly, because this occassion was self~catering, it meant momentous handling of china, glassware, linen, not to mention the food & drinks, to be cartered to the Reception Room on the morning of the wedding ~ yes, through the rain...! (To have hired this venue the day before would have cost, probably double).
Pre~drinks & delicate finger~food fabulous & eventually with Bridal Party arriving, all 170 guests were seated at huge round beautifully set tables. Food was gorgeous, drinks abundant, speeches & music DJ very suitable for such an occasion!
Loved the hire Photo Booth! Most guests queued to have impromptu photos taken (masks & intimately disguised head~gear supplied) & then were able to paste selected photos in the 2 Wedding Albums provided, along with their Guests' Comments & Signatures.
Blog Writer, yes me!, created 1 of the Albums co~ordinating the wedding Theme, & the books were aptly filled with messages for the Bride & Groom to keep forever & forever.....
Strangely, the toilets amenities block was outside down the back of the Venue, & we guests had to madly run with supplied umbrellas through pouring rain... But, 'twas the most difficult for the Bride with her trailing silk organza train... & her attendants trying to get Victoria back inside looking radiant ~ which, she certainly did look, all night long!
A fabulous Wedding for all to remember...
Continuing the creation of AllisonWonderland'z saga...
