Kelly's Korner blog is hosting a Show Us Your Life Friday and today's theme is Wedding Reception and Honeymoon! How Fun!
If I could redo our wedding day and honeymoon, I would do it. It was the absolute best time of my life.
Our Wedding reception was held in the Grand Ballroom at the Holiday Inn Hotel & Conference Center in Urbana, Illinois. We chose to hold it there because we had a lot of guests and it was one of the only places to hold them all and because the hotel was right there, our guests could just go straight to their room after the reception without driving.
Our Grand entrance, getting announced as Mr. and Mrs. Jeremy Darnell
Our Wedding cake was cheesecake. We also had a chocolate fountain with fresh strawberries!
Our First Dance as husband and wife....to Tim McGraw & Faith Hill...It's Your Love!
We chose to have a sweetheart table as our head table..since we had a small wedding party, to allow the wedding party to sit with their significant other and for the two of us to look out and see everyone!
After dining on beef or chicken, salad, veggies, mashed potatoes, dinner rolls and cheesecake, the party began! Dancing all night long. The dance floor was packed all night! Some of Jeremy's Pekin and college buddies even paid the DJ to stay an hour longer:)
I had to include this picture, because my husband does not dance very much! But I told him he had to dance with me at our own wedding reception:)
We honeymooned in Riviera Maya Mexico. We stayed at Moon Palace Golf & Spa Resort. It was heaven on earth. I would go back in a heartbeat. They treated us like royalty.
Our honeymoon sweet. We got in late at night, thus the darkness, but you look out to the ocean.
More of our honeymoon sweet.
Our favorite drinks at the pool! We had many of these. The bartenders called Jeremy...Yeremy! too funny!
One of the pools, yes this day was rather cloudy but the sun came out later.
The view from our room
One of the things Jeremy wanted to do was go deep sea fishing. He caught this 83 inch sailfish. The deep sea fishing was not all that it was cracked up to be. This was caught the last 20 minutes of our trip. We also went to the spa and had a couples massage which was fantastic!
The honeymooners candlelight dinner!
Wish we could relive our honeymoon again! We did take a trip to Punta Cana Dominican Republic with friends this past January. We would go back there as well!
