Utah wedding venues like the Atrium reception center in Sandy host beautiful family celebrations all year round. On January 1st, Brinley and Ross had a beautiful ceremony in the early evening and then enjoyed their Utah wedding reception soon there after. Their family catered the reception with delicious homemade finger foods. Some wedding reception venues in Utah don’t allow for self-catering. Both of Western Garden’s Utah wedding reception centers do let family self-cater. A favorite aunt created their beautiful cake and an aunt of the groom provided the flowers. Their photographer was Jaffa photography. What a beautiful couple and what a wonderful way to ring in the new year,….together!

Realize now that crazy things can and often do happen on your wedding day. But if you plan ahead and choose a good wedding reception center, like one of the Utah wedding venues run by Western Gardens called Atrium Weddings, then chances of having a perfect wedding day is dramatically increased. Let the wedding professionals worry about all those little things, so that you and your beau can focus on the things only you can do. For example….

On our wedding day, much like most other days, there are some laughable moments. You know, those moments that don’t seem very funny at the time but you can laugh about them later. Whether you like it or not, there will be a few of those moments on your big day. On my incredible day one of those moments was when my husband forgot to shave his face.

We had a few minutes to talk before getting ready for the ceremony. So we talked for a little bit telling each other how excited and nervous we both were. As I went to give him a kiss I noticed that he had forgotten to shave that morning. I touched his face and he realized his mistake. He told me how he was so nervous and had so much on his mind that he needed to remember to do that day that he did not even think about shaving. I guess he forgot to look in the mirror as well! He was sincerely apologetic. We thought about sending for a shaver, but at that point it was too close to the ceremony to do anything about it. So we just had to go on as if nothing was wrong. Luckily, the hair on his face is light and not easily noticeable on camera. He did end up getting many comments about his lack of shaving, but his sisters were especially amused by it.

April 6, 2012 – A Wedding Reception in Utah with a Spanish Flair

April 20, 2012 AW_Admin Leave a comment

There are many wedding locations in Utah, but none had a flamenco flair on April 6, 2012. Take a peek at the celebration that took place at Atrium Weddings at Western Gardens in Sandy, Utah. The two pink flamingo bride and groom will greet you as you join in the party and meet a beautiful and fun wedding couple.

These two best friends were married and attended a wedding party unique and exciting for all to enjoy. Pablo is from Mexico and his family also attend this wonderful celebration. Alina is an exciting adventurer and has been taking flamenco dancing, so it was natural to include in their wedding celebration a taste of Spain.

Guests first witnessed a tender ring ceremony with these two friends, now lovers. Then four friends stood and surprised the wedding couple with several quartet songs. They were good! A toast was presented and all guest tables had sparkling cider and goblets to raise and wish the newlyweds a wonderful future. Guests lined up to a beautiful buffet of chicken cordon-blue, steamed vegetables, potatoes, gravy, and soft rolls. No one could go away hungry.

When all were seated, a professional Flamenco dancing group of two dancers and two guitarists entertained the party with authentic Spanish dancing. The main dancer used castanets, a shawl, and a fan throughout several dances to charm the wedding couple and guests. The entertainment was topped with the bride joining her dance teacher in doing some flamenco herself. It was a beautiful moment. This bride has a flair for learning new things in life.

Cutting the cake was definitely on the fun side of the event. Then after was the first dance. It was then that everyone could see that the bride was wearing the same turquoise blue keds that her new husband was wearing. These two are going to have a wonderful life full of love and adventure.

What a beautiful couple that found love through friendship. Utah wedding locations are plentiful, but Atrium Wedding in Sandy, Utah, is a beautiful backdrop for two best friends to celebrate their new eternal love.

Comments from mother of the bride included the following: Overall a great experience! We would absolutely recommend us to friends or use Atrium Weddings again. Many of our guests commented how they enjoyed the celebration and they loved the Atrium’s beauty. Thanks, it was lovely!
