Although most of you probably don’t associate weddings with winter, I am planning a very cool affair over Valentine’s Day weekend. Jennifer and Mathieu decided to throw a very cool wedding reception with a “date night” theme, and I feel very privileged to be tagging along.
The reception will be held at the Entrepots Dominion, and our color scheme is, you guessed it, red and white. The venue has a very lofty feel to it, with its high ceilings, brick walls, and big open space. We will be furnishing it with contrasting modern red and white lounge furniture, and lighting it up in shades of red and pink.
For a little sneak preview, here is our inspiration board:
One of the focal points of the night will be the sweet table, complete with cake, cupcakes, and tons of candy. I am assembling this table from scratch, and so have been shopping around for weeks for the perfect candy containers. I recently stepped into Pier 1 Imports and found these perfect vases and jars:
The ceramic jars will look warm and homey, while the metal and glass containers will complement the cool urban vibe of the night. They will look awesome filled with red and white candy!
I can’t wait to show you how the event actually turns out, so stay tuned for Jennifer and Mathieu’s wedding pics after Valentine’s Day weekend!
