I was back at the Rancho Bernardo Inn tonight in the Aragon Ballroom. The ceremony was directly outside on the lawn. One of the most unique things I have ever seen at a wedding happened tonight. The bride had this surprise planned for the groom but didn't tell anyone. She got on the microphone and explained how her new husband basically devotes his entire life to serving others and she wanted to do something special for him. She took him out to the middle of the dance floor before dinner and had him sit down. The staff brought out a metal tub with towels. She then washed his feet as a way of honoring him. It was a silent and touching moment for all (see picture below). It was a conservative and fairly mellow group tonight (which the bride and groom expected) yet they still enjoyed the evening with some dancing. The enormous chocolate fountain (with milk to wash it all down) was a hit! I provided a few different lighting options tonight which really enhanced the atmosphere of the room. The bride and groom explained to me that the wall where their sweetheart table was placed looked really blank and not very attractive so I suggested we project their monogram up above their table along with uplighting throughout the room. You can see the before and after pictures below.April 5, 2009
