Indian Wedding at Old Post Office and Statler Ballroom

 Cristen and Niraj celebrated their love with an Indian ceremony at the Old Post Office and a reception in the Statler Ballroom at the Renaissance Grand Hotel.  Here are some shots by Alecia Hoyt that capture the day.

Our design team crafted the ceremonial garlands of flowers for the bride and groom.

The reception flowers added bright pops of the ceremony colors on every table.

Special thanks to Shayna at St. Louis Wedding Consultants for all her hard work in making Cristen and Niraj's day all that they dreamed!  Best wishes to the bride and groom!

Fall Wedding at the Chase--Take Two!!

We just got more shots of the wedding we did at the Chase a few weeks ago. (We also blogged about it in an earlier entry.) The bride and groom, Susie and Sandeep had two ceremonies--an American ceremony and an Indian ceremony. These photos tell the story of their day....

All of these photos were taken by a friend of the bride and groom, Michael Hersh.

First, the Indian Ceremony.....

The groom makes his traditional grand entrance.

The beautiful colors and textured fabrics made the orange circus rose bouquets stand out.

Then, the American Ceremony....

Brightly colored bouquets of fall colored flowers helped usher in this ceremony's fall theme.

The lovely bride.



All of the bouquets were a mix of the fall circus roses, orange orchids, burgundy coxcomb, and berries. The bridal bouquet had an accent of ivory ranunculus to give hers a little more of a distinctive look.




Last, but not least, the party!!
Guest tables were decorated with high and low centerpieces of all the wedding flowers and curly willow. (Check out the previous blog for more shots of the centerpieces!!)

Fantastic fall on the cake!!



All our best to the happy couple!!

A Marriage of Cultures

Sarah and Vyas had a beautiful wedding this past April. They incorporated both of their backgrounds in special ways throughout their day.

(All photos courtesy of Kelley Photo Design.)

At the ceremony, Sarah and Vyas wore traditional Indian garments. They also utilized our Mandap to tie in Vyas' heritage.

The bridesmaids' dresses and yellow calla lily bouquets reflected the colorful ceremony.

Afterwards, the bride changed into her bridal gown and the groom put on his tuxedo. Sarah carried all large calla lilies with looped lily grass accents.

Their reception was held at the very hip event space, Lumen. Their deep red decor was carried from the ceremony into the reception with the use of red roses and tulips.

Congratulations to the fun couple on their very special day!
