Our wedding reception was packed full of creative details. I owe a million thank yous to Sharon Taylor who styled it with her team from Pickwick House. Before the meeting we had several weeks of meetings where we planned out details and bounced ideas. It was even prettier than I could have imagined when the big day arrived! Most importantly, it felt really personal. Sharon used tons of vintage pieces from our shop and our warehouse along with her personal collection.
Our venue was Savoy Ballroom. It is across the street from Red Velvet. I loved hosting everything so close to our shop. The owners had the idea to play old movies during the reception, so we played Breakfast At Tiffany's and Funny Face on a projector (without the sound). It was a really cute touch!
Here are some more favorite photos from the reception...
Jeremy and his (wonderful) dad cut these wood place card holders for us! We found the library cards from Knot & Bow on Etsy.
(more photos of the dessert table here.)
And, per usual, my grandpa was stealing the show because he's sooooo adorable!
This photo of me and Emma makes me smile. She gave such a sweet toast at the reception... tears! I ordered custom fringe banners that said Mr and Mrs to tie on our chairs (above) from Nice on Etsy.
Isn't Katie the cutest? I made some special hand painted holgas for the tables at our reception. Can't wait to see if there are any treasures on those rolls of film.
Here we are listening to the toasts. They were so incredibly sweet! We enjoyed every moment. XO, elsie
PS. In case you are curious... I only have a handful of wedding posts left (plus some wedding related DIYs). I never intended to break it up so much, but I am trying to keep the number of photos in each post reasonable so that they don't crash your computers. ha!.. just kidding... but really. XO, els
