the evening ended with a tequila shot...and we were included!

We were so happy for our new friends on their very special and joyous day!

As we've mentioned in previous posts, the Liriano's really know how to have a good time and their reception was NO exception. The party began at about 6:30 and when Jen and I departed at about 11:30 it was still going! The reception started with a wonderful Spanish style buffet dinner,  followed by some dancing. Later in the evening there was a fabulous wedding cake and some very heartfelt, touching, and even hilarious toasts given by the family and friends of the bride and groom....followed my MORE DANCING! There was no lack of skill or energy on the dance floor...Jen and I had a hard time keeping still with all the great music and dancing that was surrounding us! Once thing was made perfectly clear...this family really knows how to get down! Everyone at the party had a turn on the dance floor. Mom's danced with kids, sisters with brothers, and friends with family. The evening was driven by a salsa beat and a joyous spirit, and we loved every minute of it!
