The Reception Decor

The newlyweds rode in a 1931 maroon Pierce-Arrow to Magretta Hall downtown where the reception was held. When the guests arrived, the band was playing contemporary jazz. Generational pictures of married couples from each family and childhood pictures of the bride and groom added an antique element of decoration. On the tables, a small green and pink geranium was tucked into a pleated napkin at each place setting, and fishbowls filled with black goldfish and iridescent pink marbles served as centerpieces. Near the entrance, Alicia and Scott offered the guests Fish Adoption Kits, and by the end of the night, every fish had found a home.
