Our Venues
Ceremony
We are having a catholic ceremony at St Pauls Church in Burlington, NJ
The priest marrying us will be my grandfather!!
Reception
The reception site is located at Adventure Aquarium in Camden, NJ. The cocktail hour will snake though the Caribbean Currents section of the aquarium. The dining and dance floor will be located in front of the large Ocean Realm tank. We also plan on opening the touch tank for a few hours since we will have a lot of children at the reception.
Colors
Ever since I knew I wanted to have the wedding at the aquarium, I knew I wanted Pool to be the main color. After many other trial colors to help accent it we finially came up with this! They are based off Alfred Angelos colors.
The Ride...
Flowers
Purdy Purdy flowers...so sad they will be dead in a day! Below are some pics of the bouquet my wonderful florist put together for me- since I was completely CLUELESS! When I go to my first dress fitting she is going to have a mock bouquet made up so I will have a pic of the real deal to post...YAY!
The start...
This is the bouquet that started it all...I personally am not a fan of the tight bouquets, I knew they werent for me. I search high and low for a bouquet that was ME. Alas! Martha pulled through, when I saw this bad boy it was love a first site.
Thennnnnn I found out that its fake and the florists said its not going to happen. Booooo. But my wonderful florist came up with an alternative, as good florists should do! Take a look...
