After Tanya and Jons beautiful wedding ceremony at St Alexander Nevsky, we headed the the Twelve Oaks Mansion for a great cocktail hour and reception. Twelve Oaks Mansion is a beautiful place for a wedding. With an outside patio, you could create a beautiful ceremony, and move right into the cocktail hour and the reception. Bethany does a great job at making things beautiful and keeping the day running smooth.

During the cocktail hour they had local musician Bill Deasy (formerly of the Gathering Field) playing acoustic guitar and singing to entertain guests. While that isnt something that most couples do, i love it because it sets a really cool tone for the night. It also really works for Tanya and Jon because Jon owns Joker Productions where he produces concerts.

They then went on to have a beautiful dinner with heart felt toasts, and lots of dancing!

Now onto the photos.

Tanya’s father took a few minutes to sing a song for the bride and groom.

Tanya and Jon, I hope you had a great honeymoon, and I hope you like the photos.
