🎉 Reception at The Woodlands

The reception carried all the energy and joy you’d expect from a big celebration. The Woodlands’ reception space came alive with dancing, laughter, and heartfelt toasts that had guests both laughing and tearing up.

💃 First Dance & Favorite Moments

For their first dance, Gianna & Gio chose “You Make It Easy” by Jason Aldean — the perfect soundtrack for their story. The way they moved together on the dance floor made it clear that their love is equal parts fun and steady, with a deep bond that will last a lifetime.

From there, the night turned into a true celebration — guests filled the dance floor, laughter echoed through the room, and the couple enjoyed every minute of it.
