January 21, 2020

The holidays have passed, the pretty decorations have all been packed away, and it's down right COLD! As we sip our hot coffee and watch this gorgeous wedding film to warm our wintry souls, we are reminded that SPRING really is only a couple months away! Oh how we love spring, the budding orchard... the fresh country air... and the warm sunshine! Here are 4 reasons why we revel in spring weddings. The bouquet, of course! SO many beautiful flowers are full and in season. A rebirth is all around. There is no better time for your own new beginning than the season of sprouting blossoms... incredibly meaningful. Pretty palettes. Fresh colors wake us up from our winter slumber. Comfortable temps. Not too hot, but not too cold! ::hint hint:: The kind of temperatures that your guests will thank you for if you're planning an outdoor ceremony. [embed]https://vimeo.com/215719815[/embed]

The (Pavilion) Fire is Burning for YOU!
November 22, 2019

What a cozy night - A chill in the air and the warmth of wrapping up in our favorite flannel... nothing sounds better than sitting fireside with a hot cocoa! ... Oh, and speaking of fireside, since the weather has turned brisk, we can not stop thinking about The Pavilion's fireplace. It is a built-in decorative piece that is great for event design. The massive, 40' stone, masonry fireplace is just right for enhancing any design style that we positively consider a statement piece! We thought we'd share a few of our favorite fireplace designs for stirring your creative minds. Check them out! Mirrors. Not only does a piece like this fill the space, but once the sun sets, the reflection from The Pavilion's chandeliers shines into the mirror and casts an amazing glow - creating a romantic and cozy ambiance. Plush Floral. We can not get enough of this classic look. Cover the mantle in wild greenery and soft white blooms, and maybe even add eucalyptus leaves for a strong woody and sweet scent that your guests will love! Candles Galore. Nothing says romance more than a dim glow of candle light. Create an ambiance of soft lighting and loads of candles. Fill up the mantle space with lanterns, candles, and hi-lo floral arrangements to create a whimsical, fun backdrop. Name in Lights.  If there's one touch that wows guests, it's a brightly lit monogram projection. Wedding guests are always in awe when they walk into the room and see the bride and grooms name shining in light! An oversized wreath.  an eye-catching element that will add heaps of beauty to your wedding photos.  Whether bursting with blooms or just simple greenery, these can truly be made into works of art!  The perfect blend of urban and rustic-chic. Use over-sized metal lettering to spell out... well, whatever you'd like! Rustic North Woods. A statement elk mount paired with lush greenery and up lighting is beautiful for the holidays, or any wintry style celebration.  So there you have it, those are some of our favorites! Whatever your style, be sure to incorporate The Pavilion's fireplace into your design. Create a scheme that stands out, as this is the first thing that your guests will see when they enter the room. Make it the statement piece that your guests will stare at in awe! And, don't forget... we'd love to offer our input. Ask us for suggestions or ideas any time! (815) 629.2220
