Wish Upon a Wedding Seattle held it’s Launch Party Thursday night at the fabulous Pravda studios. If you missed it, you missed a fabulous event, some ah-mazing delectables from our awesome sponsors, a roomful of wonderful people, SWEET swag bags and of course, the chance to hear all about Wish Upon a Wedding. (and of course, my amazing decor. But more on that in a minute!)
It’s no secret that I adore Pravda’s space – as a designer, a blank white loft space is creative bliss. We took the WUW logo colors of aquamarine and chartreuse (yes, I got to use my favorite color!), and so that our launch party didn’t look like every other WUW launch party across the country, I decided to add in a pop of tangerine. (especially since I refuse to use turquoise flowers).
Yum. Add in some great lounge furniture (thank you, Pravda), Linens from ABC Party Rentals AND Prestige Linens (who overnighted linens to us - at no charge. WOW.) and we had some great tables and seating.
As the owner of Bella, we of course had to be a major sponsor (since as President of WUW I’m not allowed to donate to the weddings), and I had a blast with the florals and styling of dessert tables.
Ah, the desserts. To be different and fun, we decided to offer a sumptuous selection of sweets. Where to start? Trophy Cupcakes (as seen on Martha Stewart) not only offered insanely delicious cupcakes like Red Velvet and Margarita, they matched them to the WUW logo colors. YES! Having worked with them many times, they know I’ll go as far as bringing in color chips to match the icing too…the right hue can be critical!!
Judy Tallant of Tallant House created an entire table of dessert bites of every concoction, Gourmondo Catering brought delightful cookies, and I even got to cut a WUW wedding cake from the generous Celebrity Cake Studio.
Many Seattle area vendors donated to the swagbags each new WUW wish grantor received, from Microsoft, to Bon Bon Confections, and event the Seattle Aquarium.
Thank you Tania at Azzura for the fabulous photos!! It’s always fabulous to work with you!
The best part of the evening was seeing Seattle Wedding vendors out in full force, ready to be a part of such an amazing organization. After a slideshow, my little speech, and a stunning video by Edit1Media, our registration table was abuzz.
