While tagging pictures on this new blog I realized I never posted about this unbelievably amazing autumn wedding I coordinated last Fall. It was amazing for a few different reasons – the decor, the size of the wedding party and how awesome it was to work with this family. This was definitely the largest wedding party I’ve ever worked with, 37 to be exact – Bride & Groom, 2 Maids of Honor, 13 Bridesmaids, 2 Best Men, 8 Groomsmen, 3 Flower Girls, 2 Page Boys, 1 Ring Bearer and the parents of the Bride & Groom. At first I was a bit overwhelmed thinking about how many people that really is but I was relieved when I met them all at the Rehearsal. This wedding party was on the ball, they listened (and remembered what I said), they cooperated and they were fun to work with! They ended up being the ideal wedding party.
In addition to working with this great family I also had the opportunity to work with some fabulous vendors for the first time. With amber uplights, Jim Powers of CJC Event Lighting transformed The Great Hall of Mechanics Hall into a romantic and stunning masterpiece. It was the perfect example of what lighting can do for a space. The other fabulous vendor was Leslie Boudreau of Innovative Photography Services. She was a blast to work with and her shots were amazing. Below are a few images from the wedding, courtesy of Leslie. The last photo shows the custom fabric luminaries I created for the large stage at Mechanics Hall. The aubergine, burgundy and gold fabric worked well with the Fall color scheme and the candlelight across the stage complemented the uplighting perfectly.
