A table in the vestibule of the church held the bride's book and a candle in memory of the bride's and groom's grandparents. A collage picture of the bride and groom's engagement pictures adorned the table. Hope Laughter and Mandy Fortune handed out programs and greeted guests.

Completing the setting were summer ferns and palms. A unity cross was placed on a table near the center that was used during the ceremony that symbolized the two becoming one in Christ.

    Reception
    The bride's parents hosted a reception in the William H. Perry Fellowship Hall. Directing the reception was Sue Colson. The focal point was three antique bird cages that centered the food table. Beautiful arrangements of various shades of pink roses and other summer flowers in pink and white decorated the top of each cage. The cages were filled with the same flowers and cascading greenery. Guests enjoyed a variety of hors d'oeuvres along with iced tea and punch. Table centerpieces were silver trumpet vases filled with curly willow and pink flowering branches with hanging crystals and birds' nests filled with white feathers and pink rhinestone monogrammed eggs.
    As guests departed, they were invited to visit the candy table, where crystal containers held a variety of candies and boxes tied with pink ribbons filled with a chocolate-covered peanut cluster. Pink candy bags were provided so that guests could fill a bag to take home.
    The bridal couple left under a shower of bubbles in an antique Cadillac limo. After a honeymoon cruise and a trip to Disney World, they are making their home in Statesboro.
