Heather & David

Heather and David got married right after Christmas, but wanted to make sure their wedding reflected a sophisticated, elegant look. Their colors were soft pink and peach and we strove for an almost Victorian feel. The result was charming, with soft accents that looked heaven-like.

We used the pipe and drape with pillars in front of it. We completed the look with pink drape, white flowers on the pillars, and white lights. We created a complimentary backdrop for the cake, which tied both sides of the room together.

Because they were having the ceremony in the cultural hall, I really focused on making the room look as lovely as possible. The white chair covers really made an impact on that effect.

As we were hoping for a Victorian look, I added a lace overlay on all the tables and decorated an iron birdcage with ivy and peach roses. These small details go a long way in creating an overall atmosphere, especially in a large room. Another detail which adds atmosphere are the centerpieces. The centerpieces that the couple chose for their wedding are swiftly becoming our most popular pieces. It seems that most of my clients ask for a variation on this look. I think this time it was especially lovely with the pink light, white flower, and peach napkin.

Crystal and Brandon

Crystal and Brandon had their wedding ceremony in the same room as their reception, so we set up a nice backdrop for exchanging their vows. Their colors were black and purple, which is different from any wedding I've done before. However, I tried my best to make it look classy and elegant.

The cake topper on their cake had a little figurine of Cinderella and Price Charming, so I tried to make their cake backdrop reflect that princess feel. When I finished I felt that it looked quite Disneyland. :)

Jennifer and Zachary

Jen and Zac had an all-out wedding. No expense was spared when it came to decorating for their reception. The reception was held in an old church in Provo with a unique floor plan. It was a lot of fun to use my imagination and do a totally different set-up. Their colors were hot pink, royal blue, and black which presented an interesting challenge when it came to coordinating the colors and balancing the look. However, in the end, everybody was thrilled with the results.

They had their line in the foyer which was a 6 sided room with doors on all walls. After going through the line the guests were invited into the cultural hall for refreshments. I decorated both rooms for a stunning effect that only took me 9 hours to set-up and 2 hours to take down, needless to say, I was happy to go to bed that night.

Becky & Brad

I really enjoyed doing this wedding. It wasn't simply a single backdrop, but also ambiance decorating, which I always find exciting. Becky's colors were light orange and green, which fit very well with the season, late summer/early fall. I find the centerpieces to be especially charming. Inside the beads are lovely little orange lights which the Grandmothers were very fond of. They consequently dimmed the lights to help accentuate the color.











Tiaura & Tyler

Tiaura's colors were the colors of love: pink and red. She had a simple but lovely backdrop. Tiaura took our motto of customization to heart as she requested this specific backdrop, even though we didn't currently have the backdrop on hand. We built it over the summer just for her and this wedding was the first occasion we had to use it. It was exciting to see how it came all together in the end.









Lauren & Aaron

Lauren and Aaron's wedding was a lovely affair held at the American Fork Amphitheater. We decorated the tables with crisp white tablecloths and charming chair covers, complete with spotless white sashes. Six white pillars complete with lights and valence were accentuated by the timeless background of the stone amphitheater. The entire effect brought to mind an English garden party. It was delightful!

Tragically the camera was forgotten and so the only pictures we have were taken after dark, after clean-up had begun and the rain had slightly dampened the effect.
