Colors of rose and faded gold, ivories and creams. Lights bouncing from every high ceiling, filling the theatre and its gallery with a warm glow. A long train with lace and beading details. An anxious groom, whose lines melt into a smile once he sees her. Homemade vows set with compassion and earnest. A kiss-the best, of course.
This is the scene set for the wedding of Kelly and Drew! They were married on Friday at the Tivoli Theatre in Chattanooga to much joy and splendor of friends and family. See the pictures for the Phantom/Black Swan affair below.
See this wonderful marquee? Once they had selected their location, a theatrical theme was set in motion, making their wedding day/night both dramatic (in the good sense) and magical.
A glimpse into the intricacies and marvel that the Tivoli holds in its architecture *le sigh*
An auditorium waiting to hold the guests.
The stage is set! The cast will soon take their place!
The program-made up inside and out like a theatrical piece.
The ensemble awaits their leading lady!

A quick shot of the bride-in her glorious dress.
The grand reception.
Her cake.
His cake.
The fun table game "Wed Libs"-left for both amusement to the couple and also for the guests!

While Kelly and Drew took a quick ride around the city to enjoy the new splendid moments of being "Mr. and Mrs.", the guests went inside to get drinks, play "Wed Libs" and enjoy some food! When the couple arrived, they danced beautifully to Tchaikovsky and wooed the crowd. We laughed, ate, drank and chatted. I had to leave a bit early but I bid the couple goodbye and much luck on their travels and in their new lives together. Yay! They're married!
Man I love a good wedding =]
Me with the couple! From Left: Drew, Kelly and Me
I had SUCH a wonderful time and was so glad to share in this experience with them!
CONGRATULATIONS KELLY AND DREW!
OF COURSE Kelly had just the chic-est wedding imaginable. Of course she did. Sigh. ;-) Glad you had a good time - it looks GORGEOUS. Happy for the newlyweds!
