After we finished taking wedding pictures outside during the cocktail hour, our family and friends were finally seated in the ballroom and we prepared to enter our reception.
Each of our bridesmaids and groomsmen entered with their own favorite song, and then our family and friends gave us an excited welcome as we entered the ballroom.
Etienne danced with his mother, and Ebony danced with her father.
And finally, we shared our first dance together as husband and wife to a piano and cello cover of Bruno Mars' Just the Way You Are.
After eating a southern brunch themed meal, coupled with a rum cake wedding favor as a "pre-cake" desert, Etienne's fraternity brothers performed a special tribute to Ebony.
We then welcomed a few family members and close friends to give us a special toast.
We cut the cake, sipped some champagne, tossed the bouquet and the garter.
And finally, we proceeded to dance the night away.
After ending the celebration with Donna Summer's Last Dance, our family and friends sent us off in style in a vintage 1950 Packard to begin our honeymoon.
Thank you for your love and support!
