Congratulations to Tse Wen and Mayni who tied the knot in November last year and held their wedding dinner reception at The Westin Kuala Lumpur. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful day with us and our readers! And of course to our friends at Jim Liaw Photography, without whom we wouldn't have these treasured memories captured in vivid detail.
The couple's wonderful wedding planners from Events Wizard and our team put together a fuchsia and white-themed dinner reception. From the stationery to florals, cake and even the bottled candy 'Thank You' gifts!
Our bride wanted and all-white bouquet with bling for accents. We loved her idea for an all-white bridal bouquet as hers would definitely stand-out in a sea of pink, fuchsia and red. So we put together some peonies, hyacinthus (or hyacinths) and roses. It is such a simple bouquet to put together, but don't you just love how it turned out so highly-textured and romantic?
Decor and details go a long way, no matter how small or simple. Tastefully done stationery, ribbons, elegant picture frames, candles...you can use them all! Just make sure they go with the theme, are neatly applied, and not overdone. Above are some pictures from the reception area. Everything is minimalist, with the exception of a huge vase bursting with pink roses and red mokara orchids as a focus piece.
A lush palette of red, pink, fuchsia and purple greets guests as they enter the great ballroom. The florals are simply yet beautifully arranged in tall glass vases, decorated with strings of crystal beads and displayed among a thick carpet of rose petals. Don't forget the candles! Candlelight, in any form, is always a winner for "dressing up" any floral arrangement, whether on a table or on the floor. Big candles, small candles, tall or short, it is entirely up to you. Later, some of these arrangements are transferred to guests tables as centerpieces. Yay for double-duty florals!
The landscape inside the ballroom of The Westin was dominated by Tse Wen and Mayni's three-tier wedding cake, and the centerpiece arrangement for the bridal table. We love that they kept their cake minimalist while letting the flowers bring the drama. Brides, this is a good tip for you - if you are planning for your wedding to feature bright colors, and lots of it, remember to keep your cake simple with as few colors as possible; you wouldn't want your wedding cake to be lost in a sea of color!
For the bridal table's centerpiece, we used a 3-feet tall ring stand and decorated with roses, carnations and baby's breath on the top tier, strung mokara orchids hanging down the sides with strings of crystal beads, and phalaenopsis orchids and limonium at the base. We also used lots of stringed pearls at the base of the ring for added texture.
Tse Wen and Mayni chose simple yet lush centerpieces for guest tables. What a pop of color in pink, fuchsia and purple! If you're looking for lots of color in your wedding florals, using glass vases works incredibly well for practically any type of theme or decor. However, colorful vases can also be used, like in this set-up at Thistle Port Dickson. But notice that the florals are the same type and color!
Again, thank you so much, Tse Wen and Mayni for allowing us to be a part of your big day!
