Dreamy Purple Wedding Reception

In the last blog post, I shared some pictures of Sonia and Andrew’s ceremony. This post is about their wedding reception. I have their wedding split up into a couple of posts to prevent a really long novel-like post! This one is about the wedding reception.

Sonia and Andrew knew they wanted to create an elegant and grand wedding reception at the Sheraton Eau Claire. They felt that their guests will have a certain level of expectations just because of the venue. Sonia and Andrew wanted to exceed their guest’s expectations. I came up with numerous design and decorating ideas which they were very receptive of. As a result, we were able to try out different ideas, different colored chair covers, and lighting around the entire perimeter of the reception hall.

For the head table, we decorated it with lots of silver crystal accents. These accents complemented the clear crystal accent backdrop. Rather than having the usual white chair covers with a colored chair sash, we opted for purple self-tie chair covers. These chair covers were custom ordered and shipped in for Sonia and Andrew’s wedding. Lastly, we added purple up-lighting to give the entire room an unexpected purple glow. All of the uplighting was rented from Dance Shout Productions.
