Pretty Personal Touches!

     This past weekend, we had a busy weekend full of wonderful events!  This one had a ton of fun, personal details from photos of the couple as they grew up to painted wine bottle table numbers on each table!  Their colors were pink and green, but instead of letting the colors overwhelm the room, they added pops of color to their black and white linens! Take a look at the room, guest tables, and head table centerpieces!!

This couple loves the mountains, so it made perfect sense for their cake topper to be a couple kissing while dressed in ski gear and holding their skis!  The cake also had little snowflakes on it to bring in the mountain winter feel.  The groom actually proposed to the bride on Copper Mountain while they were out skiing!

For their favors, the couple gave each guest a delicious cake pop which is basically strawberry cake mixed with frosting, rolled into a ball, dipped in chocolate, and placed on a stick!  We heard that these were a HUGE hit with all of the guests!  They enjoyed snacking on them while dancing the night away at this evening event!  Congratulations to the both of you and thanks for spending your lovely evening with us!!

Reaching Home Plate!!

Do you remember the story we featured here from November entitled "Home Plate Glory"?  Well, if you don't remember, the groom proposed to the bride at Coors Field on home plate (since their first date was at a Rockies game when he "tricked" her into a date) and they decided to have their wedding here at Tapestry House!  The reception was absolutely gorgeous and the personal details and thought that the couple put into planning it was beautiful to see.  This wedding was definitely all about the details!!  One of the unique details that we haven't seen displayed in quite this manner before was their love story and photos from both the bride and groom's childhood!  This beautiful display was assembled on site by the father and mother of the bride and it created a wonderful focal point at the reception!  It listed important dates in their relationship and helped guests to better know each of them by looking at their childhood photographs.

Not only did they create a unique display of their love story, but they added a lot of other personal details, too.  The candle holders wrapped in lace displayed on some of the tables were made by the bride, as well as the reserved table signs.  They also had a coffee bar with specialty coffees brewed by Everyday Joe's Coffee House.  The sign displaying the coffee choices was again made by the bride.  We absolutely loved all of her personal details and the planning that went into making she and husband's dream reception a reality!

 

The reception featured a live band instead of a DJ, which was fun!  The tables looked beautiful with the bride's candles and the flowers provided by the florist.  They also had some delicious-looking desserts from Strawberry Champagne Cupcakes to Tiramisu as well as some more traditional cakes.

Another detail that we loved was this couple's gift and favor table!  Now, some may not think about ways to get creative with this aspect of the wedding, but this couple did!  They had a beautiful birdcage to hold any cards they received and a handmade sign that instructed "Flowers for growing" on one side and "Flowers for throwing" on the other.  They had wildflower seed packets that were personalized with their names and wedding date as favors for their guests as well as sheet music cones holding flower petals to be thrown at the end of the evening.

We absolutely loved working with this couple and seeing their reception come to life with their personal details!  We wish you both all the best as you embark on your new life together!!
