Joel and Joanna's Reception

 I only have a few pics of their reception. And I had forgotten this backdrop picture in the last post. ( Getting down all the steps to making a blog is taking me awhile..:( )


  Joanna used Joylin's backdrop but stained it dark brown and it went well with her pine branches, pine cones and candles.
Then it was set up behind the couple's table...
Her table settings...


The plate setting...
Another simple, yet filling meal.. She also made plain cheesecakes and then served them with a choice of blueberry or raspberry sauce. It was very yummy!!

Love this picture of Joylin and Spencer- so happily married :) :) 

Joel and Joanna Wilson's Wedding Pics!!

Mr. and Mrs. Joel Wilson :) 
Here are a few pics of their special day!  This church was smaller but fit their size crowd perfectly. Everything went well :) 

Love the boys (her brothers) expressions when I ask them to sign her guest board :) 

This will be her memory- a hanging board with everyone's best wishes and names...

Best of wishes to the happy couple!!  :) :) They drove to Utah- Zion National State Park and rented a cute cabin for a few nights before driving home to Saskatchewan Canada.  We greatly miss the girls but are so happy that they found such wonderful Christian men.  I will make another post with some reception pics...

 The reception was at the Sunsites Community Center- a very accommodative place for gatherings...
She made the table numbers and used pieces of logs from our wood pile. She also sewed all the napkins..:) 
The Menu Plan...
Getting it all just perfect... Kaitlyn, sister-in-law of the bride, was a perfect coordinator and really , really helped me out.. Bro. Ricardo and (Sister Mary) not pictured was our excellent cooks!!
Then we used the backdrop at the reception tables. We had our fresh raw milk and 5 different kinds of cookies, which Jessica so nicely baked for me when she was here as she is the expert dessert maker in our family... We had ginger snaps, oatmeal raisin, chocolate chip, peanut butter, and chocolate crinkles. The bar was a big hit... perfect for a farmer's daughter :)
 
The reception hall... We served around 145 people.
 
The bride and groom at their table...

No cake, so they tried cookies - lol!!

And milk!!



So that is a few of the many, but gives you a little glimpse of their special day! :) :)
They went on a cruise to Spain for 11 days, then came home for about a week and to help us with Joanna's wedding.  I will be posting those in a few weeks when I'm able to get them..
