With ceremony, dinner, and cocktails over, all that was left was to party.
The Golden Hour
At a moment when the lighting was too perfect, Elizabeth and Jerram were whisked away to take a few final pictures.
The First Dance
Some people put a lot of thought and work into the first dance. They go to dance lessons and carefully choreograph every move to the music. Jerram and Elizabeth only knew one thing: that they wanted their first dance to be to Depeche Mode’s “Somebody.”

Probably the best shot of the back of Elizabeth’s dress so I’ll take this moment to point out that this was altered by Elizabeth. She didn’t like the way the dress came “off the rack.” So she cut up the back and brought the straps together with buttons.

Guests look on as Elizabeth and Jerram dance. It’s rather surprising that they did not have more perplexed expressions while the lyrics to “Somebody” play in the background.

More fashion commentary:
For those wondering, yes all of that bun is Elizabeth’s hair. There are more bobby pins in her hair at this moment than MacGyver could use in a lifetime.

I’m enjoying the fashion commentary. So let me also note that the bracelet Elizabeth is wearing was a present from Jerram’s mother, Barbara.

Jerram and Elizabeth also enjoy the dance as a quiet moment to talk together. And Jerram is fun to talk to.
Father-Daughter Dance
Glen takes the floor for the father-daughter dance, performed to a medley of “Over the Rainbow” and “It’s a Wonderful World.”

In the father-daughter dance, Elizabeth is surprised to discover that her dad is actually a competent dance.
Mother-Son Dance
Barbara and Jerram take the floor for the mother-son dance. Jerram chose to dance to “Moon River,” a song that was special to his father.
Anniversary Dance
Elizabeth and Jerram clear the floor. This dance is for the married couples. As the song progresses the DJ asks that only couples that have been together for at least one year, than two, than five, etc. continue to dance. This goes on until the last couple who have been married the longest are left.
Cake Cutting
The night is winding down, it is time to give everyone one last boost of sugar with the cake cutting.
We truly enjoyed being included at your wedding. The prettiest wedding that we ever remember. So enjoyable to hear how you two met.
Best wishes
Andy & shahla
What fun to view the party!
