for their getaway people threw lavender at them, it smelled so yummy.DSC_4273

i love this, someone just decided to throw the whole thing!DSC_4278DSC_4261-4300-4322-4355-4395-4412-4437

JoAnna looked gorgeous! Her dress also had a TON of bustle to it!DSC_4475

Chris and JoAnna are both scientists so their reception was science themed, I think it worked out nicely. Their tables were all named after amino acids..  img_7107img_7142DSC_4515

all their plates and silverware are biodegradable! yay for eco-friendliness!img_7153JoAnna’s mom made all of the table runners and ALL of the napkins to help add to the “green” factor!img_7239for their ‘vases’ they borrowed beakers from a local middle school to tie into the science theme.DSC_4552DSC_4562DSC_4820DSC_4801DSC_5065Four_Rectangles_One_SquareThree_Squares_Three_Rectangles_Grid
