Reception
Petroleum Club of Houston
My second wedding at the PCoH! This wedding was a little more intimate and therefore I got to see the second room. To reiterate the benefits of a wedding planner, the entire room was ready and waiting when everyone, including the bride and groom, arrived. There was no worry about showing up early and working your butt of to get everything set up. I guess it really just depends on whether or not you are willing to fork out the money to relieve the stress. The venue was very romantic with an autumn palette and big gorgeous centerpieces. I know one of the selling points for the petroleum club is the view but I really don't feel as if there is anything worth viewing right outside these floor to ceiling windows. It still gives the room that special touch. It was open bar but people weren't abusing it like you would think they would. Maybe cos everyone there seemed to have babies. Haha. That wouldn't be responsible now would it? Since Mike is white and had a lot of family members in attendace, I love seeing their expressions when we get the bride and groom to do those ridiculous tasks for their gift. They must think we're so uncivilized that we find that kinda stuff entertaining. The bride and groom serenaded the guests with their version of Ingrid Michaelson's The Way I Am, with Jacques playing the guitar. It was really sweet and also really brave of them cos I know a lot of people would never have the guts to do that. Even I would have been super nervous. I miss them a lot already now that they've settled into another state. It just makes their visits even more special!
