Erin and Aaron wanted a romantic, classic and timeless wedding. Because The Ultimate Skybox’s breathtaking views are so spectacular, they decided to keep the decor to a minimum to focus on the view. To include Aaron’s heritage, they had their ceremony at the Chinese Historical Museum, then a Chinese Lion Dance performed at their reception. They focused on red, blush, gold and cream for their colors since red and gold are lucky colors in Chinese culture.

Erica and Kyle envisioned a vintage, Great Gatsby inspired wedding. The bride’s dress had lace hi-lighted with gold accents while the groom sported a burgundy suit. After a traditional Catholic ceremony they took some fun photos downtown. Then they were off to the reception at The El Cortez that was adorned with red velvet tablecloths, crystals, candles and red and ivory blooms.
