Real Wedding: Jessie and Mac

Jessie and Mac Jessie and Mac

Our heartiest congratulations to our wonderful couple, Jessie and Mac! Our beautiful bride's vision for a purple-themed wedding is a sight to behold at Mandarin Oriental Kuala Lumpur's ballroom, bathed in warmth and love, exuding a cozy ambiance for several hundred family members and friends. We have many beautiful shots of this breathtaking evening, captured expertly by our friends at Jim Liaw Photography - thank you so much.

Jessie and Mac, thank you for entrusting us with the most important first day of your lives together and for letting us at Wishing Tree play such a big part of your celebration. Also, for sharing your wedding with our readers! Now, onwards to the photographs!!

A grand wedding like Jessie and Mac's couldn't be complete without a grand entrance lined with these walkway stands. Tall enough to impress but not too tall to overwhelm! We used sturdy white branches for these stands, and piled on the blue hydrangea, dark purple eustoma, pink dianthus and lilac roses, with simple ornaments of hanging tealights on white satin ribbons and a touch of green ivy. As Jessie wanted an effect of "city lights" for the reception, we added rattan balls to the ceiling, decorated with fairy lights for a little extra magic.

Every one of the over 60 guest tables in the ballroom featured a beautiful centerpiece. We created two types of Jessie and Mac - a tall centerpiece for the tables immediately circling the couple's main table, and lower centerpieces for the others. Other than purple berries and purple and white alliums for the lower centerpieces, all guest table arrangements comprised of lilac roses, dark purple eustoma, purple limonium, pink dianthus and calla lilies.

We love details! Clockwise from top left: White and purple alliums with purple limonium, ferns and white calla lilies; purple limonium and purple allium for, cymbidium orchids for the reception table; purple berries for corsages.

And of course, the masterpiece for the new bride and groom's table. Three large cylinder vases dominate the tablescape with lush blooms, gorgeous textures and rich purple hues with specks of red. Instead of arranging the stalks of calla lilies in the vases, we let them hang outside... Which was great for attaching the tiny mokara orchids and crystals at the ends! In addition to detail, another important aspect of floral design is dimension, don't you think so?

We also did a something different with the bride's and groom's chairs by decorating with long stalks of white allium, ivy and ribbons. As the evening progressed, purple lighting filled the room. Together with lit candles, the ambiance and mood are nothing short of romantic, cozy and magical!
