Real Wedding: Kristine & Aeden Tie the Knot at Mandalay Bay

Kristine and Aeden hired us pretty close to their wedding day so that Kristine would not be in “work mode” for her entire wedding weekend.  As an event manager for a hotel, Kristine wanted to ensure that all the details were taken care of while still being able to enjoy herself.

They were such a joy to work with and I enjoyed working with someone in the industry.  We had a mutual respect for each other and I’m so happy to know that she was able to put her trust in our wedding team to coordinate her wedding day flawlessly.

Her weekend consisted of a welcome dessert reception, wedding ceremony at Mandalay Bay complete with a Star Wars light saber exit, and finally a wedding celebration dinner at Red Square.  Below are some photos from their wedding weekend.

Favors at the welcome party were chocolate olive picks:

Kristine brought everything with her and we had fun putting together this white ostrich feather centerpiece for the dessert table:

I was on a sugar high just by walking by these desserts:

Tuxedo chocolate covered strawberries are always cute!

After a little Russian vodka…the guys joined the headless Lenin statue for a photo:

Inside the vodka vault with jackets and hats provided by Red Square:

The menu was very important to our foodie bride so I also made sure that Adam took plenty of photos of the food!  Perhaps this is the reason we got along?

Our First Commitment Ceremony: Flamingo Las Vegas

Laurie and Renee are the sweetest couple and I was so thrilled when they decided to book with Green Orchid Events! I’m excited and honored to be able to plan this first commitment celebration and I’m hoping for many more! Our wedding day coordinator Angelica McDonnell was on site on the wedding day to coordinate their entire day!

The Nevada Domestic Partnership Act went into effect on October 1st just in time for their October 17th commitment celebration. Laurie and Renee were so excited to be able to apply for domestic partnership so this celebration was extra special.

Their color scheme was a combination of orange, burgundy, and deep reds.  The entire outdoor terrace was lit up by twinkle lights on their existing trees along with par can uplighting with amber gels.  Guests danced the night away to the sounds of the “CEO” of Fun Jodi Harris!

Burgundy satin napkins on gold and rust crinkle taffeta linen. Chairs were covered with gold lamour chair covers with burgundy satin sashes:

Congratulations to Kate and Ge, a sweet couple from Boston, who were married in October at the beautiful Red Rock Casino, Resort and Spa!  Their colors were red and chocolate brown which were perfect for this setting.  Besides Kate’s love for the color red, she also wanted to honor her groom’s Chinese heritage. Some of his family flew in all the way from China to witness their wedding! Following a beautiful intimate wedding ceremony with music played by an acoustic guitarist, Kate, Ge, and their family and close friends celebrated with a cocktail style reception.

Congratulations Kate and Ge!
