A few weeks earlier the couple said "I Do" at a beautiful destination in Cambodia! It was truly a dream wedding captured perfectly by the bride's cousin Mike Keo!

Their U.S. reception was held last weekend in Columbia, Missouri at the Riechmann Pavilion at Stephens Lake Park.

Everything fell into place perfectly on this chilly April day. With tent heaters ready, we pretended we were back on the beaches of Cambodia. The couple's tropical theme was the perfect way to give their family and friends here a taste of their truly amazing destination wedding experience.

Their decor consisted of live palm trees, parasols and lanterns hanging from the tent ceiling, and of course some gorgeous DIY centerpieces the couple and their wedding party put together in Flat Branch growlers (appropriate since the groom works at Flat Branch!)

One of my favorite touches was the baby succulent wedding favors on each table. The pink, teal, and purple theme was completed with authentic Cambodian silk and lace on and behind the head table.

The kids kicked off the dance party! So adorable!

The 3-tier cake was a delicious moist chocolate and vanilla as well as a cupcake display which didn't last very long...yum!

The Modern Glam Photo Booth had Custom Tropical Greenery Backdrop! Our new Photo Booth attendant, Erica, did a great job and had tons of fun with all the guests.
