Connecticut Wedding!

Happy Tuesday everyone! I’m sorry I’ve been MIA lately, but I’ve been pretty busy! I wanted to start off by giving you a Miss Lily update, she is doing fabulous! We missed her so much this weekend while we were in New Haven, Connecticut for a wedding! M&M puppy sat all weekend and we were so thrilled to pick her up yesterday :)




So, back this wedding! Mr. Tan Lines' cousin got married this past weekend and boy was it a beautiful wedding! We headed up Friday late in the afternoon which was so yuck, traffic + rain made for a very long road trip! We spent Saturday hanging out with his family, which obviously I had never met and it was so much fun! We also had the most delicious homemade lasagna for dinner that his Aunt B made…nom nom nom!

Sunday, was wedding day :) The ceremony was held in this beautiful little white church. The bride looked stunning in her dress and so did her bridesmaids! The reception was held at a place called Anthony’s that is right on the water in East Haven and wow was it a spectacular venue! We had beautiful views of the water as you can see below!

The cocktail hour did not disappoint! There was so much food! There was a raw bar, a pizza station, a bruschetta station, various mini sandwiches and pin wheels…and more..they passed around various fried yummies as well, cheese sticks and calamari to name a few! We had to pace ourselves or else we wouldn’t have had room for dinner! After about an hour we headed in and really got to take in the venue. It was held in a large room and decorated with white everywhere! They had beautiful draping and up-lighting on the walls. Here are some pics of the the views and inside the venue!








After the formal entrance and speeches it was time for dinner! Dinner included four different pasta stations, chicken, fish, rice, tons of different veggies, filet mignon and beef loin cutting station, mashed potatoes and green beans! I put as much as I could on my place and enjoyed every bit of it! My favorite was the filet mignon and the pasta with vodka sauce!




After dinner it was time for dancing, we had a blast dancing the night away to all of our old favorites! I loved meeting more of my future family and I cannot wait to see them again in October for our big day :)
