We LOVE Love!!!
It is the reason we work in
the special event industry: Love stories and celebrating the best day of a
couples’ life is thrilling. Being able to work behind the scenes to ensure it
goes smoothly….that’s incomparable! Here, in the most recent collaboration with Harry O Productions, 1st Impressions Invitations' Event Coordination...
Modern 1920’s Art Deco
A match made in heaven…Erica
and Chris met on Match.com and this past August proved that Love DOES happen in
the places you least expect. The couple wed in the beautifully appointed
performing space, Reynolds Hall at The Smith Center, in downtown Las Vegas,
Nevada.
Reynolds Hall is known for
it’s gorgeous Art Deco inspired design. The couple decided to play off of the
building’s inherent beauty and incorporated the art deco feel into all of their
wedding, from the feathers and grandeur of their floral center pieces to the
custom die-cut invitations and the Bride’s gorgeous beaded vintage inspired
floor length gown.
The ceremony was sweet and
focused on the couples’ hope to be each other’s partner, standing next to one
another through all joy, sadness, and trials in life. The colors of the wedding
day melted into the colors of the beautiful and grand lobby of the Reynolds
Hall in creamy shades of cool grey, ivory, copper, and white. They exchanged
vows at the top of the lobby stairs in front of an striking chiffon drape.
Playing off the Match.com
story, the couple created an “ice-breaker” game, inviting the guests to find
their “match” somewhere at the wedding for the chance to win a prize. When we
first discussed it, Erica wasn’t sure if the guests would get into it or not.
When I made it from the cocktail hour upstairs to the ballroom, the DJ informed
me that the guests immediately started running around giggling and checking
each other’s cards: the prizes were gone with-in the first 5 minutes of the
reception! It was such a cute homage to the couple’s history and a fantastic
way to introduce the families and friends to one another.

One of my favorite moments of
the day was before the wedding ever began…the groomsmen and groom arrived at
the bridal suite location to transform it into a suite of tasty treats,
champagne, monogramed robes, and small tokens of thanks for the girls of the
bridal party before their arrival. It was such a charming and considerate
gesture!
Get inspired by this amazing
couple! Not only are they smart, gorgeous, and a complete joy to work with, but
are working for the betterment of mankind. Chris is a survivor of Stage 4 Low Grade
Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and this past year raised over $50,000 towards research.
