So, I am a multi-
tasker so while I am taking a break for lunch from our busy, busy day (we have a Bat Mitzvah tomorrow/Saturday, a wedding on Saturday and The Pasadena Chapter National Charity League Fashion Show/Luncheon at The
Langham on Sunday) I thought I would post some images from a wedding that we recently designed. Tara Rochelle of
Tara Rochelle Photography was kind enough to send me some images of Erin and Michael's wedding at Valley Hunt Club in Pasadena.
The bride was going for a fun, yet elegant design. She definitely wanted Hot Pink in more modern designs but wanted it to flow well with the space- which is pretty traditional. Chocolate brown helped balance out the pop of hot pink and it turned out fantastic. We did a combo of tall
centerpieces with crystals in the vase (traditional) and a clustered vignette centerpiece of miniature hot pink calla lilies, Bugatti and Hot Princess roses and raspberry
mocara orchids accented with pink flax (more
contemporary). Each napkin had a beautiful
Mocara orchid to
gree
t each guest as they sat down. The pink lighting helped unify the spaces (the tables were spread out in two adjacent rooms) and added a lot of personality.
Ashley and Matt were recently married at Holy Family Church in South Pasadena with a reception following at The Valley Hunt Club. Because Ashely lives in New York her mother and I worked together to create a traditional design with a bit of a fun and modern twist. The bride loved pink but felt like going all pink was just too much so we highlighted the hot pink by incorporating chartreuse and celadon greens and ivory and white into the color palette. To pull out more of the hot pink "theme" the pocket folded napkins held a pink backed menu and were accented with a large refluxed Bugatti rose for each guest. The bride liked the drama of the high centerpieces (notice the cool hot pink wire rings and hot pink roses inside the vases) and the cleanliness of the Vignette style design of three square vases each holding a single monochromatic arrangement. Pin spoting, uplights and lots of candles completed the look. Can't wait to see the professional shots!
