Traditions and Reception

After the ceremony, Jessica and Paul retreated to the bridal room to sign their marriage certificates and celebrate.

Meanwhile, a classical guitarist played for guests in the reception area as they mingled and met each other.

Once everybody was ready, Jessica and Paul, along with their family and wedding party, made their grand entrance and immediately headed into their first dance.

After dinner, the mic went around as friends and family offered their toasts and words of encouragement.

Then, Jessica and Paul cut their cake. And possibly had a little bit of fun with it.

Happy and surrounded by their loved ones, Jessica and Paul mingled with their guests and danced into the night.
