This is the wedding journey of the beautiful L and her dashing fiance S. This walk was truly an education for all of us. What a wonderful experience and fond memory!! We started with an elegant sanctuary ceremony. The stylish L is a designer herself, so she knew exactly what she wanted!! She chose wedding colors of red, black, and white.... Love the fabulous damask!!
After the beautiful exchange of vows, everyone moved on to the fabulous Fort Worth Club in downtown. This is truly one of our favorite reception locations. Everything here is fabulous!! The decor, the food, the atmosphere, everything!!! We decided to provide transportation for the whole wedding party both to the church and to the reception following the ceremony. Wedding party transportation is wonderful insurance for a smooth wedding day. So often it's hard to find parking in downtown and having the Wedding Party arrive seperately and on their own would risk the timing of the announcements into the reception. If it's in the budget, it's a great asset!!! Since transportations tends to be one of the sketchiest parts of the wedding industry we decided to stay with a major vendor... thank you Cowtown Charters!!
Guests were greeted at the club with a beautiful guest book table... these are the brides lanterns filled with elegant red roses. The credenza was filled with shots of the Bride in her beautiful gown.
The Fort Worth Club's Horizon room is equiped with six built in urns on pedestals surrounding a beautiful fountain. L asked our fabulous florist to fill the urns with the striking red roses. Branches and hanging candles added to the elegant look. Pillar candles lined the edge of the fountain. Floating candles and flowers adorned the water. Guests were treated to passed hors d'oeuvres and cocktails while L & S took some photos at the church. 
CAKES
L picked one of the most majestic cakes. It was very tall and very detailed. Made by the fabulously talented Creme de la Creme, it was truly a work of art!!! And so delicious!!! S decided that he would like the cupcakes instead of the traditional groom's cake.... also delicious!
CENTERPIECES
If you've read many of our event stories you know we always do an assortment of centerpieces in varying heights. The first of our three centerpieces was a tall branch floral using hydrangea and red roses. We repeated the hanging roses and candles from the built in urns. And of course, we had to use fruit somewhere!!! A band of cranberries was floating in the middle of the vase.
Our second centerpiece consisted of a large vase overflowing with hydrangea. The inside of the vase was wrapped with large leaves. Red rose petals and votive candles were scattered around the base.
Lastly we had this spectacular candle arrangement... roses nestled into a bed of cranberries!!! So appropriate for a wedding during the holidays!!
The Main Reception room.....
