Angela and Mar's Iridescent Wedding
Angela and Mar’s wedding couldn’t have been more gorgeous! It was filled with shimmer, love, gorgeous textures, and vintage attire!
”Our vision for our wedding is celebrating queer joy, love, and community. Aesthetically, we prefer romantic vibes.”
Their wedding became a celebration of queerness and Latinx identity. Through collaborative sessions involving inspiration boards and design meetings, we crafted a vibrant, shimmery, and iridescent design that flawlessly combined elements of queerness, romance, and festivity. The ceremony unfolded on the deck of Lacuna Lofts, where guests were welcomed by the enchanting Chicago skyline. The floral design created by InFlorEssence introduced captivating textures to the already stunning views. As the reception commenced, the venue's brick walls provided an ideal backdrop for the interplay of pampas, glitter, up-lights, and lounge elements.
DESIGN INSPIRATION:
To emphasize the self love of being queer and Latinx, the couple wanted a drag queen to host the reception. We booked Irregular Girl, a Latinx drag queen who performed numerous Selena pieces through the night to liven up the dance floor.
What Was Fierce About this Event
A female owned mariachi group called Mariachi Sirenas surprised guests at the end of the ceremony by playing during the recessional.
They had a Drag Queen perform a few numbers and even host the reception.
The had an iridescent lounge from Bowery and Bash for guests to relax on.
Angela wore a glorious vintage dress with a gorgeous train. It was passed down from her great aunt, then to her mom. It was handmade in El Salvador. The headpiece was her grandmothers.
