Amy & Co.

Decked out in the classic elegant colors of Tiffany blue, black, and silver, The RiverRoom was looking spectacular on the night of Amy Walker and John Reilly's special day. September 22, 2012 was the day that Amy and John had been waiting and planning for their whole lives. At 5:00pm on the outside deck on this fall evening, the couple became one as the voice of soloist Susan Savia was heard and the party of 62 friends and family members looked on with smiles and a few tears.




 The party then moved inside to The RiverRoom which was decorated by the talented bridesmaids with help from Etc. Party Rentals to continue the celebration. The reception began with a cocktail hour and social time to classic 20's style music provided by DJ Professionals.  After the introductions, the new Mr. and Mrs. Reilly and their guests enjoyed a delicious buffet by Middle of the Island Catering. They served marinated chicken breast, turkey & gravy, stuffing, mac & cheese, sweet potatoes, green beans, salad and cobbler! Yummmm!





Around 8:00pm, it was time for the beautiful cake created by the bridal parties own, Heather Ivy-Sutterfield. The cake was a three tier white cake with lots of bling! It was gorgeous and tasted as good as it looked!



Next, we got into our formal dances. As the lyrics of  "Honeybee" by Coral Sea played on the dance floor, Amy and John shared their first dance. One of the most touching moments of the night was while John was dancing with his mother, Patsy, and Amy and their 2-year old son, Evan, shared a special moment dancing to "What a Wonderful World". The guests enjoyed the music of DJ Professionals as they danced the night away to classic 80's music and other classic and fun tunes.


Richard Barlow Photography was on deck to capture all the exciting, special moments. Jessica Ensminger, a family friend, was the videographer for their big day too! One of their friends, who is also a bartender at Orton's, came over for the night to bartend the reception.  
The night finished up in a true "Tiffany's sparkling" fashion, with a sparkler send-off and, of course, lots of love. We were so glad we could help make Amy and John's day so special and we wish the happy couple many years of love and blessings!
