It's been a while and I'm glad to announce that we've added a
new partner to Wild Orchid!! Siu T. is a good friend of ours and
has joined the crew as of yesterday. We've been off to a slow
start and started off by participating in a wedding for our ward
yesterday. We were asked to do two tables of our choice. so we
chose to create the table holding all the wedding favors and their
photo memories table.
There was no budget for this wedding as we we're asked on a
volunteer basis. so we went in putting forth our best effort
donating our time and materials to get the task done.
Siu came with a Partylite Candle Chandelier and that went on
the front table for box of assorted items for us to use from her
shopping finds..and everything was awesome!! I came with an
assortment of glass containers/vases, floating candles..
The Young Women donated their time and effort in filling up
and helping out with the favor boxes and decorating the tables
in order to get their Personal Progress Points for "Service".
The wedding reception is scheduled to start @ 5pm. it's 4:30 pm
and the grooms' family arrives with their wedding cake but there's
no table to place the cake on. So they're checking out our
table that we had set up for the couple's photos and asked what
that table was for. So I told them we had set it up for the couples
photos and stuff.
So the grooms mom tells us they didn't take any photos..and would
like to use the table as their cake table . I was thrilled and agreed.
so we moved it to the right side of the front table where the
couple were to be seated and they placed their cake in the middle.
Unfortunately for us we were rushing around and didn't get a
snapshot of it with the cake in the middle but will defintely get
a copy from the photographers that were there at the reception.
The reception ended after 9pm and ended well. Got home and
slept like babies...lol..
