CAKE. Simple white cake but think colored flowers would be better and I’m not sure if we’re doing a tiered cake like this. Maybe smaller for us to cut and then variety of desserts? I think I originally saved this for the see through florals for the cake stand, but maybe a better execution and not plexi?
CEILING. Depending on the final design and what’s possible, I don’t mind a ton of little lights.
CEILING. Started to think filling the overhead space somehow might be nice. Not that I love all of these fabric ceilings, but just ideas to get your wheels turning in case it makes sense to have it.
CEILING. See prior caption.
CEILING. See prior caption.
CEILING. See prior caption. Covering the poles maybe? I don’t know.
CEILING. FLORALS. See prior caption. Also like having something behind band. Maybe a row of florals at base of stage? Too much? I don’t think it’s super huge tent though. I would like them on a stage, but again, might not make sense with the space we have to work with. Don’t want the dance floor to become too small. I often see that at weddings, the floor is made too small.
CHAIRS. FLORALS. I like these chairs, but again, not sure if they will go with final design or maybe not ‘black tie’ enough? Also like florals in front of band.
CHAIRS. LIGHTS. FLOOR. PLACE SETTING. Like these chairs, but again, not sure if they are the right fancy vibe or too much wood. Same with lights. Thinking gold lights might make more sense? Like napkin/menu/gold flatware, just ideas.
CHAIRS. FLATWARE. CENTERPIECES. These might be one of my preferred chairs, maybe over those more waxed oak chairs I seem to have saved a lot of. I spy gold flatware. These centerpieces are also nice idea. Opposite of the other one, where this one has florals in center and votives around. I think I like the taller candles vs. all votives.
CHAIRS. CEILING. FLORALS. These might be the same chairs as prior image actually. Another fabric idea for the ceiling/poles. Like the lower flowers here with tapers, though I think we might need hurricanes so they don’t blow out!
LOUNGE. BAR. Wondering if lounge area(s) is possible. Tent might be too small. Was also thinking comfy chairs/table for cocktails in addition to hightops. It’s be great to have a lounge-y sitting area just outside tent so it can be used for both cocktails and reception when folks want some fresh air, but I can’t remember if the lawn slopes down too much. Or maybe a lounge area for the cigars a little further from the tent. The black bar looks great, love that.
CHAIRS. FLATWARE. CENTERPIECES. Again, same vibe chairs may not go with our theme. Like the gold flatware. Centerpiece candle/hurricane might be too tall. Want people to be able to see each other and not have to compete too much with decor. Maybe different sized (height & width) tapers/hurricanes surrounded by some florals?
FLOORING. I’ve photographed a few weddings with floors like this. I like it, but might be too distracting with our design? Do not like these chairs. Low florals are decent.
CHAIRS. FLATWARE. FLORAL VESSELS. Dig the chairs. I think some are two-person benches? Black-handled flatware with gold might be nice. Or just all gold. Black vessels for low florals looks nice. Was thinking gold, but maybe also or instead black? I’m fine with variety and not every single table having to be the exact same. Some could be one thing and some another for visual variety.
FLOORING. LOUNGE. FLORALS. This flooring is a little starker. Prior one more mellow and the diagonals/diamonds look better to me than these larger ones, but still a fun touch. Not necessarily this lounge, but just the idea of a lounge(s). Ceiling fabric a bit too much, colors & style, likely wouldn’t match our design.
