Iris and Andrew’s Intimate, Wildly Colorful, Rooftop Wedding
Chicago may have been dark and gloomy on this wedding day, but inside Celeste, there was nothing to be gloomy about! With wonderful ideas from us, the venue, and Mother of the Bride/Vendor/Designer Amy Crum, we were able to convert the rooftop restaurant into a colorful, and wild flower filled celebration. With a limited number of guests, this wedding became an intimate gathering to celebrate the couple. Everyone sat on cushioned benches instead of chairs during the ceremony, there were plenty of lounge areas for guests to relax and drink cocktails, and the reception table was a long dining table for everyone to dine, and mingle together.
Fierce Moments
Iris’ mother designed a major portion of the wedding, and turned the Celeste into a gorgeous floral paradise. The Celeste has plenty of greenery in it’s space, but Amy added gorgeous boho wild flowers, which turned the wall into a beautiful, full backdrop as the couple shared their vows. We transformed this restaurant into a lovely ceremony space, by using their benches for guest seating, and placing floral pots down the aisle. She even had a real Persian Rug used for the Ceremony! It felt like walking into an oasis! It was magical seeing the couple’s reactions.
The couple had all their guests sign an old game board with messages. It was their guest book, and a cute keepsake!
