Brocade Designs

In our previous posts, we covered the personal flowers & wedding, now it’s time for the reception goodness! As I mentioned before, Tami and Brent had to move their wedding venue from one location to another the week of the wedding. The new location ended up being the Cannery Ballroom– one of my personal favorite venues. I think this space blended perfectly with Tami’s vision. We made a few changes to her lighting plan– Nashville Event Lighting proved amazing as always for this event, planner Mary Alice and her team from A Delightful Day really shined, and before you knew it, we had a beautiful wedding reception.

The Cannery Ballroom: the setting for the scene– with it’s rustic wood beams, brick walls, and spacious layout, this is a fabulous place to host a wedding reception.

Guests entered and found their seating assignment– love this display made by bride Tami:

We created a focal point table for the cocktail hour near the name card display:

Curly willow with orchid blossoms

Once inside the ballroom, guests found their tables by discovering these lovely wine bottles with table numbers–such a great idea from Tami:

I loved that Tami loves details, and so we took her great theme and carried it on. Mason jars with orchid blossoms and twine were one of those ways :

and candles in each window:

We did a few different sets of centerpieces. Tulips and hydrangea made one of the pairs:

And another was tulips, white stock, bells of ireland, buplerum and curly willow:


I love how soft, romantic, and elegant the centerpieces were, while still embracing a natural, rustic feeling:

Each table featured menu cards in the style of Tami’s invitations:

We did some awesome tall centerpieces to add height and depth to the room:

The tops of the tall centerpieces held hydrangea, roses, bells of ireland, stock, orchids, and more in a beautiful, lush arrangement:

Hanging candles off the tall centerpieces:



Hanging Lanterns graced the dance floor:

The Cake table:



A late night snack of Krispy Kreme’s proved a total hit:

And gave more energy for dancing and a kiss on the dance floor…

The couple escaped into the night with a sparkler exit:

Every congratulation to this sweet, timeless couple!
