This romantic and thoughtful post-wedding celebration took place at Bartizan at the beginning of summer. Christina and Eric exchanged vows earlier in the year, and this gathering aimed to commemorate their joyful union and the anticipation of their little one on the way! Post-wedding celebrations like this are gaining popularity as many couples opt for intimate ceremonies and wait to celebrate with loved ones at a later date. Delaying your wedding reception by a few months after the marriage offers several benefits: it allows for more time to plan, extends the celebration beyond the wedding day, and enables greater personalization and design.
The mother-to-be and bride, Christina, took charge as the event's designer and decorator. Her vision came to life beautifully! The standout feature was the striking display of the couple's last name in bright, bold letters by GNS Rentals, complemented by balloon accents from Balloons and Things. Blooming cherry trees and floral arrangements on gold stands added a touch of regal elegance. The gold-engraved menu cards were a detail that truly impressed. Guests were treated to a variety of culinary delights, including Blackened Salmon, Shrimp and Grits, Short Ribs, and a house-made Buttermilk Biscuit and Fried Chicken bar! Dressed to impress, guests arrived ready to dance the night away in style.
