The Reception

Small tables lit by tea lights were arranged on the restaurant's patio for guests to sit and enjoy the meal -- spring rolls, shrimp, calamari, and entrees of steak and fresh tuna. The fragrant pink bougainvillea, palm trees, Latin jazz band, and view of the sunset over the ocean set the perfect mood. Gina, Shannon's friend, serenaded the newlyweds with Girl from Impanema, and Matt's father made a very touching toast to the couple.
