Sneak Peak – Spring Wedding at Double Creek Crossing

The May weather was perfect for the Vidrine wedding at Double Creek Crossing. We stopped by to take a few pictures of the details, but we can’t wait to see the professional pictures! We wanted to give you a sneak peak of the fabulous event! Thanks to Katie for letting Details Event & Party Rental help with her big day!

The natural setting of the venue is one of the best in the Brazos Valley. They also have a great back-up plan in case of rain! Katie chose a bright color scheme that really popped against burgundy. The sign-in table was adorned with bengaline fabric in wine. Arriving guests strolled down the rock pathway to their seats and received a program that doubled as a fan.



The couple exchanged vows below the shade trees and a gorgeous arch adorned with orange, pink and lime flowers. Bright rose petals lined the stone aisle, and green pomander balls hung from several chairs. The bride added a pop of color with hot pink chair sashes tied to white garden chairs.







The bride’s cake table was our favorite part! Katie saw the idea of adding pearls around the cake in a magazine. She used a pearl broach to drape the linen, adding elegant detail.




Guests could also choose from a variety of homemade pies. This gives more options than the traditional groom’s cake. The couple utilized the furniture at the venue to display engagement photos. Personalizing your wedding will set it apart from others and make guests feel more connected to the couple.





The centerpieces included vase trios of varying heights with black rocks and submerged flowers. Floating candles at the top help keep the flowers in place and cast a romantic glow when the sun goes down.




The gift table was adorned with a “bright apple green” pintuck runner.



Instead of just putting the food on the table, the caterer added interest with mirrors and hurricane vases. The candle light will help guests see food when it gets a little darker. A few leftover flowers brought in the colors scheme.

Rehearsal Dinner



Orange rose centerpieces, feather boas and zebra table toppers added a fun touch to the fall festivities. The groom’s parents graciously hosted the rehearsal dinner in their backyard.



Tailer and Caine were glowing as their excitement grew for the evening and day ahead.



The bride had monogrammed cups made to add some personality. I loved the windmill in the background!



The groom posed for a picture with the bridesmaids after dinner. The groomsmen received monogrammed cufflinks, and the bridesmaids received monogrammed bags and matching jewelry that they wore during the ceremony.

DIY Table Lamp Centerpiece



A few issues in addition to budget constraints: the “lamps” needed to be cordless AND very tall in order to have a dramatic effect on the tent space, and also to ensure that the lamp shades don't get in the way of guests having conversations.

So… Ikea to the rescue, as usual! You can get one of two styles of big white lamp shades for the tops ($6-9 each) and tall Blomster floor block candle holders ($20 each) to act as the sturdy base (they’re heavy!). Then, you can create “pull cords” for the lamps using beading and attaching pendants at the bottom..

Of course one of the most important things for a lamp to do is to give off some light, and that was one of the trickiest parts! You can use battery-operated LED lights that are usually used for paper lanterns & set these in small clear glass cylinder vases at the top of the candle holder. The cylinder vases were secured so the candle holder with 3D glue dots and hidden by the lamp shade. These gave off just the right amount of “mood lighting” for a night time cocktail party!.

*****.

Budget - About $40 per centerpiece for 8 of these tall guys, and all of the elements are completely reusable!
P.S. These lamps & cocktail table linens are 100% stark white, but the night lighting makes them appear a little more cream in the photos.
Thanks HWTM for the idea!
