The Wedding - a few more pics.

The Bride's bouquet... orange calla lilies...

and the bridesmaids carried an assortment in autumn colours.

The bridesmaids were stunning in their gorgeous dresses.... three friends of the Bride and the Bride's sister....

.... and the groomsmen looked pretty good too. OlderSon was Best Man, and the other three handsome young men are friends of both the Bride and Groom.

Guests were invited to sign the engagement portrait.
And of course, the Wedding Cakes! The round one was a three tier chocolate cake provided by the reception venue. The Bride and Groom decoration on top came from the wedding cake of the Bride's great aunt who passed away earlier this year.
The square cake was my homemade fruit cake decorated by Susan. Both cakes were served at the late night buffet.

  2. It just gets better and better, Ex-S. Those may be the prettiest wedding bouquets I have ever seen, bar none! And I LOVE how there were so many touches tucked in from the relatives, like the cake topper.

    Thanks for sharing!

  7. The lilies are so beautiful, I have never seen them in that colour before, only white.

    And the chocolate cake iced, I bet that was absolutely scrummy
