The details of the celebration.

The Blackstone gives this Chicago celebration an architectural setting with a strong identity. White floral centerpieces and gold reception details bring the photographs together in a consistent visual palette.

The gallery offers a closer look at the room and the individual details. When considering a setting like this, notice how the scale of the centerpieces relates to the room, the tables and the guests seated around them.

Kierstin and Thomas’s wedding weekend also included a welcome gathering at Tortoise Supper Club. The two collections show different parts of the same celebration: a reminder that the experience starts before the ceremony.

Traci’s planning perspective

Ideas to take into your own wedding.

Design for the room you have.

Before choosing centerpiece sizes, consider the room’s proportions, sightlines and the space needed for service. Architecture and flowers should work together.

Plan the whole weekend.

A welcome gathering and wedding day have separate guest lists, service needs and schedules. Connect the plans without treating them as one interchangeable event.
