hellooo instagram! it’s been a hot second since I’ve posted on the elowen page. tbh I was overwhelmed with trying to keep up with this insta page, insta page & finishing out the 2021 wedding season. now that it’s already February 2022 (how did that happen so fast), I figured I would jump back on and post a little more often to show off my lovely clients wedding days. thanks for following along. ♡

xx,
ashley

when designing a ceremony space there’s a few key elements I always like to include. to set the feel of the space have some sort of signage near the entrance, whether it’s a welcome sign, timeline sign or maybe a quote from your first dance song. next, add elements such as candles, floral or a combo around the sign and at the beginning of the aisle. down the aisle continue those decor elements, which leads you to the focal point. this could be an arbor or a backdrop emphasizing the reason everyone is gathered, the sweet couple. throw in a room full of people you love and it’s the perfect combo.♡

timeline tip: highlyyy recommend a private moment with your new life partner right after the ceremony. the day can fly by so it’s super special to spend that time together (even if it’s just 5 or 15 minutes). my personal favorite is when the newlyweds grab a drink + celebrate each other.♡

I always recommend going all out for your head or sweetheart tablescape! add in those extra design elements that might not be on every guest table. because it’s your love celebration after all! one of my favorite additions to a tablescape is dinnerware. there’s so many gorgeous textures, colors and patterns that can compliment your overall design.

p.s. the wilder plates will always have my heart ♡

fun fact: the ceremony guitarist forget the guitar at the first wedding coordination I ever did

It ended up being all okay & now a funny story to tell, but at the time calling local music shops it was kinda crazy to say the least! wedding coordinators are more than just timelines. we are there to support you in all ways + to create a calm environment so you can love + be loved by your partner, friends + family. ♡

what does being an Elowen design client look like? first step is filling out our new client questionnaire so I can learn allll about your wedding vision. next, I create a moodboard with descriptive words, inspo images & color palette. once that is nailed down I create a 20+ page design guide that breaks down each tablescape, stationery/signage, ceremony decor, seating chart, dessert table, etc. the goal is for you to know exactly what to expect with your wedding design. and finally the day of I bring the design elements & style everything for you (my fav part)! I got you!

are you looking for an event designer?! I would love to chat with you! 🤍
