Natalie & Gavin’s wedding at The Westin Great Southern in Columbus, Ohio was classic yet modern, which is a wedding style that we will never grow tired of. The neutral color palette & the white fluffy florals were stunning in every way.
Their day was filled with a palpable energy, a lively dance floor, & an exceptional vendor team. It was such a joy guiding Natalie & Gavin through their planning process. From venue shopping, design days, & tastings in Columbus, to their hugs at the end of the night. It was such an honor to be apart of their best day ever.
Some of my favorite moments of their day include:
1. Their grand exit including ribbon wands! This is a moment that always makes me pinch myself. How am I so lucky to be able to swing open the doors for the newly weds as all of their guests are anxiously waiting on the other side to give their congratulations!
2. Their dance floor! They hired one of my absolute favorite DJs, Ohio DJ Pros. He kept every.single.guest. dancing all.night.long. Seriously! The Cain family knows how to throw a party for the ages! The bride & groom even got behind the DJ booth for a song, the crowd went WILD
3. The specialty rental items from Aiden & Grace. Their chargers, flatware, bars, & soft seating seamlessly blended in with the historic space while elevating the design.
4. Those florals! They were absolutely breathtaking & even more beautiful than what we imagined. I personally prefer fluffy romantic florals with no greenery, & so did Natalie. Evergreen Flower Co. completely nailed it, was so detailed with her custom proposal that included custom sketches, and was nothing but delightful to work with on the day-of. I can’t wait to work with Heather & her team time & time again.
5. Working at The Westin Great Southern in Columbus, it’s been on our venue bucket list for quite some time & it exceeded our expectations. It’s the perfect combination of a historic event space with hotel rooms that have been recently renovated. Their staff was also amazing to work with.
Natalie & Gavin's day is the perfect example of non-boring neutrals. We included so much texture, shading & movement only using whites, beiges, and gold. These color palettes, when executed correctly, can be some of the most beautiful weddings!
