For this modern, chic New York City loft wedding, Loulie Walker of
Loulie Walker Events notes that the couple wanted guests to feel as if
they were dining in their own home. So she created a warm and intimate
dining room.
Important to the overall effect was the lighting–the loft space was aglow with candlelight.
Color was another key element. Dark, dramatic chocolate brown provided
just the right touch of sophistication, lightened by accents of orange
and lime green. Three 40-foot-long banquet tables were dressed in
chocolate brown satin and paired with chocolate velvet cushioned
chairs. Small bouquets of vivid orange blooms in low square glass vases
graced the tables. Rich brown menu cards with contrasting lime green
engraving and calligraphy adorned each place setting.
Keeping the look simple and uncluttered helped to create the low-key yet totally elegant mood.
