Modern And Minimalistic Museo Casa de la Bola Wedding

November 3, 2022 | justine

For Bere and Oscar, postponing their wedding due to the pandemic meant one thing: they had more time to fine-tune their vision and plan a party for the ages. And it was certainly worth the wait! They showcased a modern aesthetic, a sophisticated color palette, and statement florals that perfectly contrasted their 16th century-museum venue. To say love is definitely in the details at this Museo Casa de la Bola wedding would be an understatement

After the two said their “I dos” at the Parroquia San Josemaria Escriva, they headed to the museum, where a stunning reception awaited. With the help of their planner The Eventuer and an expert team of vendors, they transformed the courtyard into an ultra-romantic setting. The space was complete with white and red blooms that popped against an elegant tablescape filled with taper candles. And not only that, they dined and danced the night away under the full sparkle of disco balls.

Photographer and Junebug member Memorybox did an incredible job of capturing every well-thought-out detail of the day. So scroll through and read on to find out the many creative ways they made their Museo Casa de la Bola wedding uniquely them. This is one elegant soiree you don’t want to miss.

The Couple:

Bere and Oscar

The Wedding:

Parroquia Sanjosemaria Escriva, Mexico

How They Brought Their Museo Casa De La Bola Wedding To Life

We wanted an intimate affair, a feat for us coming from large families and a particularly social pair. We wanted our guests to be persons who loved us deeply, wanted to celebrate our love, and would contribute to the energy we dreamed of for our wedding, love, positivity, and bliss. The energy and love our family and friends showered us with, in tandem with the magic our vendors created, made it the happiest day of our lives and something we will cherish forever. I would describe our wedding style as modern, bold, and minimalist. The contrast between the rustic 16th-century museum and the modern elements was an aesthetic dream for us. The juxtaposition of old and new is one of our favorite pairings, and we knew it would be central to the design of the day.

Why A Museo Casa De La Bola Wedding

We found Museo Casa de la Bola on Instagram, as we did with everything else. We are big fans of architecture and wanted a beautiful location without needing so much work done to it,  something rich in history and culture with a garden. And all the statues and stone sculptures were chef’s kiss.

Giving Out Welcome Bags With Travel Essentials

We gave our guests welcome bags with our portrait logo. It included itineraries, traditional Mexican candy, and recommendations for navigating the city. Most of our guests did not live in Mexico, and we wanted to provide them with guidance.

Enlisting The Bride’s Mom’s Help With Their DIY Projects

I DIY’d our clusters of postage on our wedding mail which was a lot of fun. Our first save the date included our single-line drawing portrait as the focal design. Also, the lasso, which is a part of a Catholic ceremony signifying unity, was something I DIY’d with my mom. Traditional lassoes are very ornate, and I wanted something simpler and minimal. My mother is a jeweler and provided the gold to create it with me.

Their Wedding Team Was Crucial To Bringing Their Vision To Life

Aside from celebrating our love, the most important parts of the wedding day were the design, flowers, food, music, and ensuring our family and friends had the best time of their lives. We knew this required being very organized to execute our vision for the day and have the best day of our lives. Having an experienced wedding planner and vendor team with the same goals made the wedding journey a stress-free experience. We knew everything would come together perfectly because they went above and beyond. The relationship we developed with our planner, The Eventuer, enriched our experience and allowed us to trust the process. We worked hard to surround ourselves with our favorite humans, which paid off many times over.

The Couples’ Travels Inspired This French’s Point Wedding

November 1, 2022 | justine

French's Point wedding.

Mikailah and Nick spent time traveling the US and fell in love with the green forests of the northwest, the deep reds of the southwest desert, and the sense of community in many of the small towns they visited. So when the time came to tie the knot, they wanted to bring the colors and textures from their travels into their French’s Point wedding celebration. And that’s exactly what they did.  

Overlooking the rocky coastline, the pair exchanged heartfelt vows under a beautiful chuppah adorned with fresh blooms, dried greenery, and feathery pampas. At their tented reception on the estate grounds, guests were greeted with towering installations above an elegant tablescape of taper candles and delicate floral clusters. Meanwhile, rattan pendant lighting illuminated the space and seamlessly blended with the rest of the decor.

After two long years of planning, the pair was thrilled to spend the weekend with their loved ones in the most picturesque location. And their talented team helped them realize their vision and pulled it off with exquisite style. If you and your partner are fans of nature-inspired weddings with a sophisticated and timeless twist, you’ll want to see this one.

Viking-Themed Gather Greene Wedding

October 31, 2022 | justine

Wedding inspiration can be drawn from many sources. When the time came for Fei and Matthew to tie the knot, they turned to their diverse backgrounds for wedding day ideas. With a sculptural venue perched on scenic acres of the Hudson Valley, a rich and luxurious color palette, and spectacular floral displays—their Gather Greene wedding strikes just the right balance of rustic coziness and modern romance. 

With its picturesque views peeking through the wooden screen walls and soaring arched ceilings, the open-air pavilion was the perfect setting for their special day. A dramatic floral installation that echoed the curves of the space served as the focal point for both the ceremony and reception. To top it all off, their stunning tablescape featured wildflowers and moss for a touch of whimsy, while taper candles and lanterns added a beautiful glow.

In honor of the bride’s heritage, the pair changed into the customary red and gold embroidered attire for the tea ceremony. Their celebration was truly a beautiful mix of Scandinavian charm and Chinese tradition. From the sweet first look and all-night dance party to all the moments in between, soak in every detail and let these images captured by Jim Lee Vision sweep you off your feet.

Manna Sun Events’ Insights On How This Gather Greene Wedding Was Brought To Life

This Viking-themed wedding is filled with details and romance, and it’s one-of-a-kind. During the initial consultation, the couple expressed their preferences and interests in Viking culture. Manna Sun Events took on the challenge and did plenty of research into this unique culture before starting any actual design. The challenge was to design a wedding that embraced and paired two different cultures–initially far from each other–while coming together in celebration. The Gather Greene was an ideal place and provided a minimalist Scandinavian feeling and a breathtaking backdrop. The couple wanted a location that was inspiring on its own yet provided a blank canvas for us to build an experience.

Choosing A Color Palette That Complemented The Venue And Season

We chose a complimentary color palette that showcased the tones of the coming fall. We also utilized colors of the couple’s family lineage and history. Using complementary shades of green, orange, and red–as seen in the lounge area and table setting–it immediately brightened up the atmosphere. 

Incorporating A Traditional Tea Ceremony

In keeping with tradition, Matthew dressed up in a red suit embroidered with a dragon pattern and knelt with Fei, who was wearing an embroidered red Qun Kwa, and served tea to their parents, in-laws, and other family members. Even though the bride’s mother couldn’t make it to the wedding, the hosting of this traditional Chinese tea ceremony and the enthusiasm of all the participants made Fei feel loved, cared for, and supported. It was a touching moment that symbolized the union of two families, and it also showed how beautiful love could be when East meets West.
