Whitney's Wedding

Our friend Whitney, whom I knew from Boston and William knew from both here and Boston, got married on Saturday to her best friend Mike. We were lucky enough to be able to attend the wedding reception at her mother's house nearby.

It was such a perfect evening- the dinner and dancing were held outside. You can see the pool with the theme of "lemons" (the yellow balloons)- her colors were blue and yellow and the place cards were also lemons. They also served several different kinds of lemonade- I like the Melon one and William liked the Guava. Its hard to see the band in the background but they were there- and super fun. How can you not like a band that plays "Billy Jean" by MJ.
They even had blue and yellow fortune cookies for us to take home
The wedding cake was very beautiful. We actually had another cake that they brought out that was super delicious- white and chocolate cake with a mousse like center.
The most creative touch of the night was the photo booth. It is one of those that you find at the mall or other entertainment area and you can get an instant strip of a few photos. William and I had our pictures taken and then we included a photo along with a personalized message in their guestbook. It was such a clever idea. And it was even more adorable to see the bride and groom enter there. I sadly realized that I never took a photo of the bride- she looked so radiant and lovely. We had a great time at the wedding in that we were able to see some friends from Boston and William was able to catch up with many people that he knew from the Stanford ward. Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Lau!
