Idea of the Month
A colleague of mine is getting married this spring in the Mt Park Hawthorn Venue. As the Events Manager at Mt. Park, I’ve had the pleasure of seeing many wedding ideas unfold from start to finish. Most of these weddings have been based on seasonal décor or a favorite color, so when she told me she was having a Beauty and the Beast themed wedding, I was excited to see what ideas she and her (very creative) family came up with.
Pulling off a Disney themed wedding is not a simple feat as things could very quickly fall into that ‘cheesy’ wedding category! From what I have seen so far, I have no fear of this happening. From gold vintage painted Cogsworth clocks and Lumière’s to handmade wooden shelf-ladders, this wedding is sure to be an inspiration for anyone toying with the idea of stepping outside of the traditional wedding theme-box.
I promise to share photos from her wedding in a couple of months. In the meantime, check out a few ideas here from The Knot.
