Real Wedding: Henry and Joveyn

Our couples never cease to amaze and excite us with ideas for their weddings. Henry and Joveyn are no exception, and you won't believe the theme they've come up with!

Natasha of The Peak Xperience, Henry and Joveyn's wedding planner, came to us with the concept for the couple's wedding reception at The Westin Kuala Lumpur, where our couple first met. And, like movie-goers around the world who went wild for James Cameron's sci-fi blockbuster, Avatar, we too were left rather breathless with excitement at the idea of an Avatar-themed party.

Thanks to the talented team at Fifoto Photography, we have some wonderful snapshots of this memorable, magical evening!

Lighting has become one of the most important elements in events and parties, especially for one like this - a wedding reception based on a futuristic, fantasy movie theme. It adds layers and complexity to the decor and ambiance, it envelopes guests and partygoers in the mood of the evening, and it makes everything look, well, simply gorgeous.

The concept for the decor is inspired by Pandora's 'Tree of Souls', which features six "trees" lining the aisle from the entrance to the main table. These trees played a double-duty role here, as they were also the centerpieces for the six tables along the aisle. The trees are made of iron, which doesn't sound too sexy, but they are strong and durable, and more importantly, won't lose a "branch" under the weight of candles, glass holders, flowers and other decorative elements.

The party was reflective of Henry techopreneurial personality as well as Joveyn's fashion-forward sense of style. To balance out the futuristic, sci-fi fantasy atmosphere, we used lots of soft lines in the floral arrangements with a variety of flowers such as phalaenopsis orchids, Banda orchids and hydrangea. The iconic Anya Hindmarch ribbon and Martha Stewart Weddings' "What Tree Did You Fall From?" inspired the design elements of the evening, embellishing everything from the backdrop to menus, table cards and place cards.

We really love the ambiance of our couple's wedding reception... so magical and full of fantasy and style! The florals in white and shades of blue, purple, violet and lilac, accompanied with white linens, fabulous lighting and attention to detail were the perfect recipe for an evening of gorgeousness. Well done, Henry and Joveyn, and thank you so much for letting us be a part of the most treasured event of your lives!
