A Fabulous Flourish of Fuchsia

Monday, June 1st, 2009 | trends, weddings

We had a GORGEOUS wedding on the weekend in hot pink, black & white. The bouquets were quite simple & understated. The bridal party was large in number – but they were all tiny – so we didn’t want them to be overwhelmed or overshadowed by large bouquets. They all looked stunning in their hot pink dresses with black sashes.
This was the largest seating chart we’ve ever had printed. It was so easy to read it helped all 300 guests find their table assignments really quickly.

The bronze & crystal trees looked so amazing with all the orchids & swarovski crystals & hanging votives. The room was truly breathtaking. The mother of the bride cried when she saw it. All the details reiterated their invitations. They had custom seating chart, menus at each place setting, ceremony programs, reception programs, table numbers, place cards at the head table, and even the gobo on the dancefloor matched!

We used two large trees on the head table – they were visible from anywhere in the ballroom yet didn’t block any sight lines. They were luciously adorned with 3′ graduated strands of swarovski crystals and whole stems of mokara orchids.

the ice luge was used for their two pink signature cocktails

This ballroom has certainly never looked quite so pretty in (hot) pink!

I love all your pictures! The table numbers you have are what I have been looking for. Did you make them or order them? If you made them, what program did you use?
Thanks! Julie

Thanks Julie! We had a lot of fun with all the hot pink! The table numbers (as well as menus, programs, & seating chart) are from mystylishwedding.com – they do fabulous custom work (for almost all of our clients) and the custom table numbers are usually about $1.50 each (depending on quantity ordered, etc.).
