Hilltop wedding

Another gorgeous day!! We had great weather for the wedding up at the Hilltop ski chalet. The bride and groom wanted to keep the decoration simple for the wedding which worked out great because the wedding was at 2pm and we couldn't get into the site until 10am. Not too much time for set-up. Andrew from Valley Rental Center came and set up the pipe and drape, tables, and dance floor. My staff threw on the linens which were a sage green with a silver organza on top to lighten the green just a bit more. The centerpieces were fun to make. We used ti-leaf as the base and filled it in with freesia, grasses, eucalyptus, calla's, and set the whole thing on a large gold charger. The bit of gold that showed under the centerpiece brought out the gold writing on the favor boxes. We also used grass as out napkin rings and it really "tied" it all together. :) Thank you to Mom, Grandma, Sarah, and Johanna for all of your help with that!! Time always goes by faster when you can "work' with friends.


The wedding ceremony was outdoors on the flat lawn-ish type area and an outdoor cocktail hour followed with Troubadoura as our entertainment. After the wedding party was finished with their pictures all the guests came inside for the reception and dancing. Later that night while everyone was dancing we had a thunderstorm outside, rain, wind, etc. Then the weather calmed down, the sun came out and everyone went outside again for a nice warm evening in the sun, the d.j. even provided bubbles. Perfect!
