Lighting Up the Evening Entertainment

At 8pm when the fire pits opened, guests were inspired and captivated by the atmosphere and ambiance of Jessie and Jon’s party. Little did they know that Jessie and Jon had more surprises in store. The 8:45pm cake cutting was joined by a presentation of birthday cupcakes for Jon’s mother and Jessie’s aunt. Announced by the DJ, the celebration of these guests’ birthdays delighted everyone. A champagne toast by Jessie and Jon’s parents to personally recognize their love and commitment was another real treat.

Among the blush, burgundy, gold and rose gold color scheme that elevated the delightfully dazzling atmosphere, guests danced the night away.
