On Saturday we were at the Herman Fire Hall in Butler PA. The event was a wedding reception for Emily and Lee. Emily and Lee got married at 2:00 pm at St. Mary of the Assumption Catholic Church in Herman. Guests began arriving at the Herman Fire Hall shortly before 4:00 pm where they enjoyed cocktails and appetizers as the bridal party posed for photographs.
At 5:15 pm we formally introduced the bridal party into the hall and then Emily shared in their first dance together as husband and wife to the song Thinking Out Loud by Ed Sheeran. Next, the newlyweds cut their wedding cake prior to dinner. Dinner was prepared by the culinary staff at Garda’s Restaurant and was served buffet style.
After Dinner, Emily danced with her brothers and then Lee danced with his mother before we opened up the dance floor. Throughout the remainder of the evening, guests danced to the sounds of DJ Pifemaster until the wedding reception ended at 10:30 pm
