Okay, I know, I broke this up into about a zillion parts… but if not my blog would keep a HUGE post and a bunch of others on the first page and then no one would ever finish loading my blog.

So, to continue to… The Reception!!  The Reception was at the Holy Trinity Reception Center, a perfect venue to hold their 300 guests.

Chan and Tim planned one of those awesome choreographed entrances that have been all the internet rage… it was so awesome!

The food:

The food was actually NINE courses, full of Vietnamese dishes that featured a lot of incredible seafood.  The sea bass (two images up) was the best I have ever had!  I wanted to share their really creative way of serving these, too.  Nine courses would normally take FOREVER to serve one at a time (and I’m sure be incredibly expensive), and a buffet can be chaos with so many people.  They did Lazy Susans!  For those not familiar, it’s a rotating platform in the middle of the table.  See below:

It was the first time I had ever seen or heard of this being done… and it still looked amazing as well!  We all loved being able to take more or less of the items we wanted.  :)

And let’s move on to images of the crazy awesome dancing party!

And somehow during all that awesomeness, they managed to find time for the bouquet/garter/tormenting of two friends:
