“We were overwhelmed with how original and beautiful the arrangement was,” says David. “Who gets to dine underneath a plethora of gorgeous phalaenopsis orchids?” BLACK-TIE PARTY Shealyn Angus of bliss events and Todd Kjargaard of jackie o collaborated on the design of the reception. Three long communal tables were set up in the space and covered with sleek black linens from around the table. Guest tables were paired with white Pierre chairs, while the head table was paired with black Victoria Ghost chairs from contemporary furniture rentals inc. that were enhanced with gold vinyl stripes from dance floor décor. A breathtaking, suspended floral arrangement with white orchids and wisteria wood was the focal point of the head table, designed by the team at jackie o to resemble a “white orchid cloud.” Place settings featured gold charger plates from fos decor center topped with personalized black and white menus designed by laura k invitations. In lieu of wedding favors, the couple made a donation to the princess margaret cancer foundation on behalf of all of the guests. The donation was noted on the bottom of the personalized menus. “Everything was black, white, or gold—it was all very streamlined and thought out. Each element was artfully put together to create a completely cohesive look,” says David. www.wedl u xe.com 153
