My Wedding Reception Ideas

Glitz and Glamour New Years Eve Wedding

Mindy and Eric tied the knot on New Year's Eve among family and friends and then partied into the new year in style with this glitz and glam wedding. This may be our favorite pink and gold wedding ever, with plenty of custom details and a 'Kiss Me At Midnight' theme. We can't think of a more wonderful New Year's Resolution than saying 'I Do' to your soul mate and promising to love them forever!

You're going to need plenty of time to ooh and aah over this beauty captured by the talented Blair Schluter Photography, so don't let us keep you!

Guests were greeted at the entrance to the reception by gold party horn place cards and tins of 'Happy New Years' headbands to set the tone for the evening.

Simple cardstock clock-inspired printouts were placed on gold chargers - under the glass plates - adding the perfect New Year's touch to each guests' place setting.

A popcorn bar with plenty of topping choices featured custom popcorn boxes and a custom sign with suggestions for flavor combinations.

Two custom cakes made for the perfect wedding-day treats to hold guests over until midnight. The main wedding cake is an elegant 5 tier white cake with gold sparkle accents and pink sugar flowers. The groom's cake features a more rustic feel with a 'naked cake' finish, lush greenery, and an antler monogram cake topper.

Blush and Gold Southern Fairytale Real Wedding

Southern fairytale wedding, and they overcame a lot to make their dream a reality. Tara had a near death experience when she was diagnosed with a pulmonary embolism and spent two nights in the intensive care unit, with Brian by her side the entire time. After she recovered, she decided to take the wedding planning into her own hands instead of using a wedding planner, and we are sure glad she did! The final result is absolutely beautiful.

Pasha Belman Photography skillfully captured every last detail at the Mansfield and Wedgefield Plantations in Georgetown, South Carolina. These historic Southern plantations are filled with live oak trees, making for a dreamy ceremony under a canopy of Spanish moss and a breathtaking reception space to fulfill all of their wedding day wishes. A pink, ivory, and gold color palette gives an incredibly romantic feel to their nuptials. From their darling first look to their sweet first dance, you can see the love these two share, and that they enjoy every second they spend together.

Blush and Gold Southern Fairytale Real Wedding

And that dress... Tara looked stunning in a strapless sweetheart ball gown featuring detailing on the bust and a tiered skirt, not to mention the dreamy blush pink tint. Her bridesmaids matched her look perfectly with strapless blush dresses with draped sweetheart necklines. Brian and his groomsmen looked flawless in black tuxes and bow ties.

Towering white plume feather centerpieces are a sophisticated nod to the 1920s, while other centerpieces feature lush floral arrangements created by Colonial Florist bringing a secret garden feel to the day. Pink table linens are the perfect match for the gold chargers and gold-accented glasses on each table. White Chiavari chairs feature gold cushions to keep guests comfortable while adding a classic look to the reception space.
