Nikki & Dylan

Hosted at the iconic Events by Alpha, Nikki and Dylan’s wedding was a breathtaking blend of Victorian-era charm and contemporary sophistication. From an intimate ceremony filled with white lilies and mirrored cubes to a jazz-club-inspired reception, every detail was designed to create an unforgettable experience. Their day was a testament to the power of collaboration, creativity, and love.

The Vision

Nikki and Dylan’s vision centered on evoking a feeling of drama, romance, and modern opulence. They wanted their wedding to immerse guests in a carefully curated experience, from the moment they entered the room. With runway-style seating, lavish floral arrangements, and mirrored accents, their intimate ceremony was a bold and contemporary take on tradition. The reception extended this vision, channeling the energy of a New York jazz club with warm gold accents, personalized details, and live music.

The Details

The ceremony featured a stunning juxtaposition of the venue’s Victorian architecture and contemporary design elements. Runway-style seating on mirrored cubes reflected the warm glow of pillar candles, while a modern arbour of white lilies framed the space. A custom linen backdrop added a photogenic touch, doubling as a photo opportunity for guests later in the evening.

The reception was equally extraordinary. Hidden behind draped projection screens showcasing the ceremony, Nikki and Dylan made a grand entrance timed to a live saxophonist, igniting the energy of the room. Guests enjoyed signature cocktails, live pasta stations, and an oyster bar, each reflecting the couple’s favorite indulgences. Thoughtful touches like personalized coasters and custom bar menus added a layer of intimacy and detail to the evening.

Another standout moment was the creative twist of projecting the ceremony video onto drapes at the reception entrance, allowing guests who missed the ceremony to share in the magic. The room was filled with awe and emotion, setting the tone for an evening of celebration.
