As I started writing up today’s blog post, I realized that it was pretty jam-packed with images and it only kept getting longer. So instead of one reception post, I decided to break it up into three. Yes, three. And suddenly I realize that Lauren + Chris have officially taken over the blog for two weeks! You scoundrels!

Today we will pay tribute to their deep blue and lime green details. The guests had a preview of the color scheme during the ceremony. The cocktail hour continued the theme flawlessly with those eye-catching blue table cloths set against a gorgeous sky and with the lovely Tribute Golf Club as a backdrop. Guests were welcomed with drinks and hors d’Å“uvre while we took a few quick images of the extended families.

Inside, guests picked up their boarded pass, aka table seating card. My whole crew each had their own boarding passes. Our destination? Philadelphia!

I bet you want to know what’s inside. Handmade chocolates in the shape of their home states, of course. Waiiittttt, handmade by whom? Lauren & Chris, of course!

The travel theme came to full fruition in the cakes. The bride’s cake featured a slew of destinations with the honeymoon location near the top. And to top off the cake? A set of luggage with their initials on it, duh.

Chris’ groom’s cake was the epitome of a gamers wet dream. An Xbox console on the bottom, topped with controllers from a variety of other game systems. I drooled and Vivian had to pull me away before I made a puddle on the floor right there and then.

There was also a custom topper right next to it in Lauren & Chris’ likeness. On their computers!
