Congratulations Rigo and Destiny

 

This wedding had a dramatic black and gold style in a modern venue, exactly what the couple wanted. The ceremony was held outdoors, in front of a large arch covered in greenery and flowers, accented by an aisle with matching florals. The guests entered the reception to find our gold welcome mirror with Destiny and Rigo’s names and wedding date on it. Their tables had white floor-length linens that were topped with centerpieces of white roses and candles. Each place setting had a gold cup containing a favor and candy.

The three-tiered wedding cake matched the theme, as it was white with gold and black accents. The front had a gold edible emblem with the couple’s initials on it. It was so pretty! The newlyweds shared their first dance in the clouds, while cold sparks lit up the reception. When Destiny and Rigo made their exit, they ran through a tunnel of guests holding up sparklers. To top off the night, the couple, in their full wedding attire, jumped in the pool. That was hilarious! The newlyweds shared a few more wet dances before heading off to their honeymoon. Congratulations Rigo and Destiny!

Congratulations Hayden and Vonnie

 

This wedding had a roaring 20’s, unique feel and the guests really got into it. Vonnie’s dress was a 20’s style ivory slip dress and she wore an amazing 20’s style headband and veil. Most of the guests wore similar attire, with the women in 20’s dresses and feathered headpieces or hats. The guys also got into it, wearing suspenders and hats. The centerpieces and décor matched the theme as well. Each table featured an assortment of vintage accessories, including books, candles, flowers, vases, pearls, you name it. They really came together nicely. Our photo booth even matched, with an art deco style backdrop and photo strips.

During the ceremony there were a few special touches. Vonnie’s father played the ceremony music on his guitar, and the couple did a handfasting. Following the ceremony, there was a receiving line before the guests entered the ballroom. During dancing, we did an Anniversary Dance. The longest married couple in the room was married 34 years, and their advice to Hayden and Vonnie included, “respect each other” and “never go to bed mad.” Sounds like good advice to me!

After a night of fun, dancing, and a private last dance, the newlyweds made their exit through a tunnel of guests waving ribbon wands. It was a perfect night. Congratulations Hayden and Vonnie!

Congratulations Daniel and Bailey

This was the most wonderful wedding day with the most wonderful couple! The ceremony started at a beautiful church, with candelabras running down the aisle and candles and floral arrangements at the altar. When the post-ceremony photos were finished, Bailey and Daniel and their wedding party left for the church in a vintage trolley.

When the guests arrived at the reception, they first saw a pretty mirror holding their table assignments. The wedding colors were white and shades of pink, so the tables had white, floor-length cloths and soft pink napkins. The centerpieces were assorted vases with submerged flowers and floating candles nestled among greenery. At each place setting there was a place card and a box of candy. To add to the wedding colors, we had pinkish purple uplights giving the room a flow of color. For a personalized touch, we projected a custom GOBO monogram with Bailey and Daniel’s names and wedding date on it.

Bailey’s delicious wedding cake was three, stacked, white tiers accented with pink and white flowers. Daniel’s groom’s cake was amazing! This couple loves to hike, so the cake looked like Enchanted Rock in Fredericksburg, with two hikers on the top and an edible tent and backpack at the base. Around the cake there were cupcakes decorated to look like little campfires!

This group loved to dance and there were people on the dance floor from the first song to the last. They also took tons of pictures in our photo booth – where they had a great time! After the last dance, the newlyweds shared a private last dance while the guests were outside lining up for the exit. Daniel and Bailey then ran through the guests and headed off in a vintage limousine.  Congratulations!

Congratulations Adam and Amber

This wedding reception was held months after the couple had a small, private ceremony, but it was still elegant and fun! The guests arrived to see tables with white floor-length cloths. On top were gold chargers and black napkins in gold rings. Each place setting had a black menu card on the charger and a black seating assignment card on the table.

A unique aspect of this reception was the bar. There were actually two bars: one was serving traditional drinks and a separate bar was just for bourbon. All the guests got their drinks served in custom glasses with the newlywed's names on them in gold. The three-tiered, white wedding cake had simple, elegant frosting lines on it, and the topper was a custom statue of the couple and their dog. It really looked like them! Near one bar, there was an elegant ice sculpture with the couple’s last initial on it.

Amber and Adam chose to skip many of the usual reception elements like first dance, parents’ dances, and bouquet and garter. Instead, they really wanted to spend their reception visiting with friends and family and dancing. And that’s exactly what they did. Amber was dancing all night long! After a fun night of dancing, the couple said goodbye to their guests before heading off together. Congratulations Adam and Amber!
