In Living Color…

This year’s wedding season was incredible!    We were honored to be part of some amazing celebrations. Now that things have mellowed out just a little, we can take a breath and spend some time writing it all down to share with all of you.   Whew!!!    We made it to July!!!    

 

We’ll start with Emelia & Jay’s wedding. 

This was one absolutely DELIGHTFUL couple.   A pure joy to be around.   Sometimes we just fall in love with the people we get to work with — and this was definitely one of those times!

From the moment the bride stepped onto the purple carpet out of her limo into the gorgeous Greek Orthodox Church dripping in gold accents, this wedding was something truly special.   After the richly traditional Greek ceremony, the guests were treated to a remarkable reception at Appleford  in Villanova, PA.  

During the cocktail hour, the guests were free to roam in and out of three distinct areas each with its own unforgettable features.  The first area provided guests with luxurious chaise lounges and beautiful dupioni silk pillows at which they were served delicious signature drinks with matching straws. The second area featured a fountain spilling with lush flowers and romantic music.  The third area featured a raw bar lover’s dream – three types of oysters, scallop cerviche and jumbo blue crab claws, among other delicacies displayed in an elaborate architectural design brought to life in ice then accented with submerged tulips in glass vases.   Each of these areas was trimmed with linens and flowers specifically chosen to compliment the ambiance of each area.

Upon entering the dinner tent, the guests were dazzled by the array of pinks and purples everywhere.  Each of the 180+ colorful Chinese lanterns hanging in the dinner tent was carefully chosen and placed to compliment the tables beneath.  The table tops were stunning –  lush mixes of hot pink phalenopsis, magenta peonies,  pink tulips and purple hydrangea that complimented table linen topped with lavender dupioni silk.

This is one wedding we will not soon forget!   The food by Max Hansen Caterer was incredible.  The team at Beautiful Blooms created their usual magnificent centerpieces.   Eventions did a phenomenal job at putting up the nearly 200 lanterns.  And that cake by  Truli Confectionary Arts was simply stunning!
