Bowers/Hunter Wedding Reception

Want to see what a wedding reception for 350 people looks like? On July 14th, 2012, we hosted the Bowers/Hunter wedding reception in our Ballroom and Glassroom! Despite a little rain, it turned out to be a beautiful day!

Outside the Ballroom, a signature frame, photo book, and framed photos of the couple's parents' wedding photos greeted guests.

Inside the Ballroom, these cute monogramed wreaths decorated the gift table.

The Ballroom was decked out in blue!

The Glassroom offered overflow seating. The scenery was decoration enough!

We had the player piano on to offer musical entertainment.

Centerpieces were kept simple. I didn't get a great shot of the floral centerpieces, but these candles were really neat!

I'll let you in on our little trick: when we need extra seating in the Ballroom, we encroach upon the dance floor just a little bit. Four tables placed on the corner of the dance floor became the reserved tables for the bridal party and family. Looks like we did it on purpose, huh?

No sweetheart table for this couple! They just wanted to mingle with their guests! This "&" symbol reserved their places, though.

At every place setting, we did a pocket fold for the custom-made menus. A single biscotti was also placed at each and every place setting.

Cake! This cake was so cute!

I love the monogram!

The groom's cake we hid in plain sight in the lobby. Very cool X-box cake!

The bar had these cute little chalkboards which displayed what was hosted at the bar.

Finally, back in the Glassroom, a photo booth was available to entertain guests. (Provided by Spanger Entertainment.) Here's the wide array of props available!

What a fun wedding! Congratulations to Christy & Jason!

Toon/Marcum Wedding Reception

Some brides like to keep it simple...and some brides go all out. On Saturday, June 30th, Bluegrass was privileged to be the site of the Toon/Marcum Wedding Reception. With around 250 guests, we were around capacity with the dance floor still open. Check out these awesome photos from that night!

Outside the Ballroom, guests were invited to view some photos of the couple and sign the guest book. This HUGE floral arrangement was brought from the ceremony.

To the left of the arrangement, a frame gave some background about the bride's dress. All wrapped up in one, it was her "Something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue." Adorable!

Inside the Ballroom, the guest table was flanked by ferns and lights to really make it grand.

The Ballroom was decked out in white with touches of pink. Light provided by Spangler Entertainment really showed off the dance floor.

Little known wedding fact: If serving heavy hors d'oeurves as opposed to a meal, you don't have to provide seating for everyone. In fact, it makes the guests circulate and socialize. However, it is nice to provide places for the guests to rest their plates. Provided by Liberty Party Rental, these high-top tables made provided just that. To dress them up a little more, the centerpieces were kept simple- glass and candles.

The centerpieces varied- candleabras provided by Liberty Party Rental and fresh florals made each table special.

 The cake was NINE tiers tall! With some added bling, it was a masterpiece!

And for the groom's cake (and all you UT fans out there), Smokey! He's so cute!

(I felt bad about cutting him up, but I saved most of him.)

Finally, the fruit, vegetable, and cheese display table boasted a double heart ice sculpture. Wow!

It was a wedding that will be remembered for years. Congratulations to M'Call and Andy!

Pope John Paul II- Celebrating 10 Years!

This past Saturday, we hosted the Pope John Paul II School Fundraiser here at the club! This was their 10th anniversary, so we did it up with style!

This is part 3 of our "Winter Wonderland" series. Again, I didn't intend to do that!

Guests were greeted by this magnificent lighted display at the top of the stairs, wow!

The stairs in our lobby were decked out with lights, tulle, and sparkle!

Here's a close-up of what was tied to the banisters:

Let's take another look at that sign!

As we do for most of our fund raisers, silent and live auction items were available. Here's some of the high lights:

I love the lighting and decorations! This gave the auction items a little sparkle while keeping everything in the theme.

We also used the Glassroom for the majority of the auction items:

What's that in the back? An ice sculpture! To celebrate the 10th anniversary, JP II's ice sculpture showed off the occasion with style!

Wow! That's amazing! Here's a close-up:

Meanwhile, in the Ballroom, the room was set up for an elegant plated dinner.

Keeping with JP II's colors of blue and white, the Ballroom kept the Winter Wonderland theme with more snowflakes, lighting, ice, branches, ornaments, and white flowers. The centerpieces varied by table, which we love!

The faculty had their very own table:

The stage was set for the live auction and the band was ready to rock the night away when it was over!

As always, a fabulous time was had by all! The parents love giving back to JP II and the school greatly appreciates it! Happy 10th Anniversary, JP II!
