Darren and Julie

With This Bling

With this bling, I thee wed…and that sums up Darren and Julie’s beautiful wedding. A gorgeous and adorable couple, we worked together to design a whimsical wedding theme for an April wedding at View on Hudson.

Julie and Darren had looked at many gorgeous wedding venues, and once they found the perfect place, we started planning the rest of the details. Very much the princess bride, Julie selected a stunning Pronovias ballgown with feather details for the wedding day.

When I first met with these two, I knew my bride was going to be all about the glitter and I was so right! Julie loved everything sparkly and wanted to bring that into the glam wedding decor.

We talked over some unique wedding ideas when I came up with a starry night theme. As much as Julie wanted her wedding to sparkle and shine, she didn’t want it to feel like a kid’s party. The concept of stars across the ballroom ceiling, crystal details in the upscale wedding centerpieces, and luxury wedding invitations with gold stardust all came together perfectly.

While Darren and the groomsmen wore classic black tuxedos, the bridesmaid were stunning in floor length chiffon navy blue dresses. The entire wedding took place at the venue with the ceremony beginning shortly before the sunset. My favorite moment of the night was the “Love Actually” surprise I had helped Darren plan for when they got to the end of the aisle after getting married.

The luxury wedding reception was filled with special moments including the NYPD drumline performing and a huge wedding photo including everyone in attendance.
