The reception, The reception...

The reception was at a really cool building in Downtown Bryan called Downtown 202. We hired a caterer who handled the food and some of the decorations but other than that Kristen and I did the entire thing...wow!! It ended up so cute but man was it alot of work and I got no help from the bride the day of the wedding!! Her colors were black, red and lime green so we tried to incorporate that throughout the venue..
Table settings....we bought the centerpieces at Garden Ridge Pottery and had the florist add the flower balls to the top.

The candy bar was a HUGE hit!! We bought most of the candy at Sam's and tried to stick to colors that matched the wedding theme - it really ended up being so cute!!

Double trouble!! These 2 danced forever that night - notice the candy stains on the dresses!!
My Uncle Bryan and Grandmother - she also danced the night away!!
My sweet hubby!! Because we did so much of the reception ourselves, Chris ended up being my errand guy, setter upper, babysitter, clean up crew and security at the end of the night!! He was quite the trooper for the weekend!!
Gary Mobley and his 3 girls - nothing can begin to describe what a father he has been to us!! So many people ask him if he was sad he only had daughters and he always says NO WAY - he loved every minute of being a dad to daughters!!! We are so blessed!!

My mother-in-law, aunt and hubby!! Grace went home with Chris' parents that night since we had to stay until the end and clean up - she made them stay until 9:30 p.m. still going strong!!
The bride and her Daddy!! What a wonderful night!! So proud of our little Kristen!!!
