Tonight's Wedding Celebration

Congratulations to a great couple!  As I am writing this, my client is celebrating their wedding celebration.  They got married this afternoon and decided to have a later reception with heavy hors d' oeuvres.  Our goal for their environment was to create an elegant yet comfortable place for their guests to relax and celebrate.

We started with a fall palette of black, orange and gold with brown and green thrown in for some visual interest.  I love orchids, so used plenty of them in the centerpieces and trees, adding crystals and plenty of natural textures. 

The cake was a three tier cake done in three parts.  I love the three gold boxes set on a diagonal and surrounded by candlelight.  The bookshelves behind give the cake table a focal point and take it from ordinary to extraordinary. 

The lounge incorporated leather couches and benches, rugs, pillows, lamps and lots of candlelight.  It is a perfect place to sit with friends and sip a glass of wine while listening to the latest DJ song.

The initials on the dance floor were a crowning touch.  I love doing the unexpected and their initials made the gobo light fun.
