The couple recited vows on a stage that was draped in white sheer fabric and decorated with bountiful, white floral displays on tall acrylic stands. A string trio from musical occasions performed throughout the ceremony. ALL-WHITE OASIS The couple worked closely with tala florist and decorator Neda Emami of éclat decor inc. to bring their beautiful reception vision to life. A mix of round and long dining tables were covered with rich, white linens. The tables were paired with white Louis chairs with modern, acrylic backs from Éclat Decor Inc. wedding bands & co. produced the couple’s wedding rings, including Nickoe’s diamond engagement ring that was designed with input from Vedad. A traditional Persian dessert spread was presented after the ceremony and featured different types of authentic homemade sweets and pastries. “When we saw the reception space we were absolutely speechless,” remembers Nickoe. “It was exactly how I imagined my dream wedding to look like.” www.wedl u xe.com 51
