Two's a company... Three's a crowd... Unless it's a dog!

The Wellington was the place to be on Saturday June 18. We had the honor of hosting the Jordan Haggart and Dustin Jackson reception. Jordan was quite crafty, coming up with most of the decorations and theme herself. The colors were different shades of champagne, chocolate, and ivory which matched the ballroom very well. They draped the most gorgeous fabric down the walls and really made this place look like their own. It was very much a cocktail reception, because the couches and tables that were brought in from Liland’s Special Events out of Dallas. Thanks to Dustin and Jordan’s friends, and day of coordinators, Keeley and Carmen, everything came together beautifully. John Johnston was the florist and really out did himself with the centerpieces in the foyer. The white flowers matched perfectly with the white couches that sat in the foyer as well. The arrangements were over four feet tall! Sally Harlow with Big Tyme Catering out of Iowa Park did a great job with the food! We had heavy hors d’oeuvres served on china. There was shrimp, beef, and a very delicious pasta! The cakes were provided by Aunt Glenda’s and Jordan’s actually sparkled. After dinner the night really got started thanks to The Tyler Rushing Band. They kept the dancing going until it was time for the party to end. Especially when they covered Lil Jons’ “Get Low.” One of my favorite things from that night was when Jordan and Dustin shared their first dance as Mr. and Mrs. Jackson, they had a special visitor come join them, Dustin’s dog, Cody! He is a border collie mix and super friendly. He was a little scared of the bright flashes from the cameras, but that didn’t stop Kelly Trimble from getting some good pictures of the dancing trio! On a more sentimental and admirable note, Jordan and Dustin made a donation in the name of every guest that attended their wedding to the American Cancer Society in honor of Jordan’s late mother, Judy Haggart. All of us ladies here at the Wellington had a great time planning this event. Congratulations to Dustin and Jordan Jackson! We hope you two had as much fun on your honeymoon in the Caribbean as we did getting to know you and helping making your big day a successful event!
