Kelsey is excited with how cool the zoot suit looks.

Kevin pops up from behind the bush to surprise Kelsey.

We had a 20s themed reception, so Kevin got a zoot suit and Kelsey got a flapper dress to change into. Neither of us had seen the other in their reception attire, so Kevin was hiding behind a bush to surprise Kelsey in his zoot suit.

Plates of fruit laid out as appetizers in "the atrium" part of The Atrium.

We went to an Orioles game with David and Brian and got a caricature done while we were there. The artist wanted to draw us in baseball outfits, but we wanted him to draw us whitewater rafting.

On every table, we had a few lit candles, a name of an author that was active during the 20s, and a centerpiece of green fuji mums. The placecards had author names instead of numbers or letters.

The head table before we sat down.

Our placecards were mounted in wine corks cut in half that we cut grooves into.

Another shot of the memorial candles that we lit to remember the people who couldn’t be with us.

Kelsey and Kevin posing with Ayala, our officiant. Ayala is a close friend that Kevin met in college.

Kelsey and our two ushers, Brittan and Zach. Brittan is Kelsey’s nephew, and Zach is a very close childhood friend of Kelsey’s.

Kelsey made a snide remark so Kevin retaliated by sticking out his tongue at her.

Kelsey’s necklace was on loan from Kevin’s Aunt Ann, and was a gift to Ann from her late brother, Paul Lee.
