Colors were Black & White with mixed Gold and Jeweltone glass. <BR /><DIV> The wedding was In late October, and the guests were asked to dress in formal attire , basicaly Black tie for men and long gowns for women. </DIV> <BR /> As the guests arrived at the reception , they were met by 2 pretty girls dressed in colorful Venietian inspired gowns and masks,think Carnival in Venice. <BR /> The seating cards were Feathered masquarade masks. <BR /><DIV> At each table we places tall crystal vases filled with colorful Dendrobium orchids and in the center were more masks on long sticks with lots of trailing ribbon in festive colors that spilled to the table. </DIV> <BR /><DIV> Jewel tone glass votives with flikering candles were placed everywhere for atmosphere, as well as up lighting on the walls. </DIV> <BR /> The tables were set with gold chargers and clear dinner plates and the linen was a gold pin tuck with tassled toppers in sheer organdy to match. <BR /> It WOWED everyone! </blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/C84AE4D3-9301-48BE-B526-08EB83F9AF89/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
