Less than one week before the wedding, I met with Courtney and Kyle to discuss a last minute backdrop. The focal point of the room was going to be the centerpieces on the table, hot air balloons. They were created using helium balloons covered in a wide rope netting with a wicker basket for the base. To tie the backdrop in with the rest of the room we decided on a light, airy feeling that still offered a large amount of room coverage.
We put up a pipe and drape backdrop with a honeydew green colored drape. We accented it with wisteria trees with green flowers.
Despite a small mix up including a wrong address and the BYU football game traffic that slowed us down, the night went really well and the wedding party loved it.

Autum and Colby
Autum came to me requesting a shabby-chic wedding. I was more than happy to oblige her. Her colors were hot pink, black, and white, which I thought was fabulous for her theme.
We worked with a damask pattern as a base accent to be used in table runners and the backdrop. I had my seamstress custom make the runners, which turned out to be beautiful and really pulled the look together on the tables.
The backdrop was one of our new designs, using rather dramatic pieces of fabric. We first put up a solid black curtain. We then put a panel of damask fabric in the center of the backdrop, and then placed white and pink fabric on either side.
To complete the look, white paper lanterns were hanging from the ceiling and wrought iron details completed the look.
I was thrilled with the end result and so excited that I finally had a chance to do this backdrop that I have been waiting to do for so long. Hopefully it won't be too much longer before I get to do it again. :)
