Kyle and I are self-proclaimed "foodies" so we wanted to have the reception at a place that served great food. We chose Lamberts BBQ because of their fabulous brunch menu - which we ended up serving. In lieu of a traditional wedding cake, we decided to serve frozen bananas (as a tribute to Arrested Development) from a local stand here in Austin...as well as the restaurant's own fried cherry pies and cupcakes. I think both the Asians and non-Asians appreciated that everything was served buffet style...as we certainly had more than enough food to go around!
When it came time for speeches, all we knew was that my Dad was going to give a quick toast...what we didn't know was that we would be overcome with gratitude by all the family and friends who also went up to say a few words and offer their congratulations. But the highlight of the entire reception was undoubtedly when Kyle's second cousin, Rayann (age 6), went up on stage to proclaim her love for him...followed by her brother Tyler (age 12) who then confessed that he was jealous of Kyle because I was so "hot"! With everyone bursting out in laughter, it was a perfect end to a perfect day :)
