Black, White and Pink all over!

We have all been looking forward to this wedding for over a year, the bride knew exactly what she wanted and we had a great time designing the wedding of her dreams! Guests enjoyed the cocktail hour  in the historic Morris Civic Lobby.  

How awesome are the guest seating cards from Spark Design! LOVE! 



Following cocktail hour, guests were invited to join Sam and Scott in the lovely Palais Royale Ballroom which was adorned with everything Damask. We switched up the oh so popular Damask pattern and made custom Damask lamp shades, risers, and chair caps. 
















Instead of the traditional "clinking of the glass" to see the bride and groom kiss, Sam wanted everyone to wave feathers, we loved this idea, and everything outside the box about this wedding! 

We love sharing our latest events  with all of you, hope you enjoyed this post and all the others as much as we enjoy sharing with you! 

Wishing Sam and Scott a Merry Ever After!

Pinkalicious

Talk about "center"pieces!Hot pink Roses, gerber daisy's, and hydrangea shoot out of this giant vase. Talk about a show stopper!


The X shape is a great unexpected seating arrangement for your guests! The tables lined with hot pink and lime green floating and votive candles, all lead to the statement "center"piece!

LOVE ACTUALLY

If you have seen the move LOVE ACTUALLY then you might remember the "wedding scene" in the very first part of the movie. If not check out Love Actually - Wedding Scene - You Tube , the bride always wanted this to be apart of her wedding to surprise her groom and all of the guests. With many thanks to Kai Alece Band, she was able to pull it off! Here are are some awesome photos from Brian Williams, as soon as we have access to the video from Tampa Wonderworks Film we will be sure to share with all of you! 







It really can be "like the movies..."
