Abike and Michael

Abike is a gorgeous woman who moved to the US from Nigeria a few years ago, marrying a man who also hails from the same homeland. She was so sweet and very easy to work with. It was an absolute pleasure decorating her wedding!


The wedding colors were purple and ivory and together we pulled together a very budget-friendly, yet elegant decor plan. Due to a scheduling conflict with the venue, The View Community Center in Grandview, we only had 1 hour to set everything up before the party started and only 1/2 hour to take it all down afterward! It was a pretty tight deadline, but my dedicated team was up to the challenge.

We used both ivory and purple satin overlays on the tables and as chair ties. The centerpieces consisted of ivory and lavender roses and a few tealights. It was elegant in it's simplicity.



The backdrop was our classic pipe and drape, with a purple drape and white wisteria trees at either end.



We also were also able to debut our new addition, the ornate ivory couch! We adore the unique lines of this vintage couch and hope to see more of it in our upcoming events!



To conclude, here is a picture of the gorgeous bride who was gracious enough to let me take her picture. Thanks for letting us be part of your special day!
