Angela & Chris - New Orleans Flavor To Their Wedding
Angela & Chris came from the city of New Orleans and when asked why the Lowcountry to get married, their excuse was it was halfway between New Orleans and Baltimore for the families of both to come and celebrate their love. Back in September, Angela contacted me and booked me for November 7th at the Woodlands Mansion. The Woodlands Mansion is a premiere venue in the Summerville area.
- Temperatures were well above normal for November standards in the Lowcountry, but not totally out of the question. Temperatures were in the low 80s at the time of the ceremony around the 3pm timeframe.
- PRE-CEREMONY: Jazz / Instrumental
BRIDAL PARTY PROCESSIONAL: Marry Me (Instrumental) - Train
BRIDE PROCESSIONAL: "All Of Me" - John Legend
RECESSIONAL: "Happy" - Pharrell Williams
- After their lovely ceremony, folks congregated over to the venue where cocktails awaited after the warm afternoon. The sounds of Marley and Santana and other reggae artists were the focus of the cocktail hour. At the end of the cocktail hour and photos, we proceeded to introduce the bridal party and allow Angela & Chris to do their first dance.
