As soon as possible, a wise bride will first focus on getting her wedding plans organized. Get your smartphone organized right off the bat as you plan for your wedding reception! Before you are tempted to visit all the many utah wedding venues to find that perfect one, some brides find it very useful and less confusing to create a special email address dedicated to only your wedding communications. As you search for wedding venues in Utah or cake designers or whatever vendor you are needing, they can communicate directly with that designated email address. Create those folders and sections on your phone to hold all the vendor names, phone numbers, addresses, and details that you will be gathering for the next several months. Remember to take photos of those cake designs or floral arrangements that you hope to be replicated for your own wedding celebration.

Some brides still find it useful to use the old style paper file or three-ring binder. Have pockets to place photos and ideas that you come across. Tear sheets from magazines you want vendors to see! A picture is indeed worth a thousand words, especially when you can leave an actual photo with the vendor so they have a reference photo when they create your cake, or floral arrangement, or dress, etc.

Your wedding ceremony and reception will be a lot less stressful if you will take a few moments in the beginning to get organized and stay organized. Also, some wedding venues Salt Lake City offers like Atrium Weddings provide wedding planners that will help you with the details you need to remember for the celebration at their wedding venue.

Forget-Me-Not Reception Centers in Utah – Real Event 05-21-14

September 18, 2014 Wendy Leave a comment

At one of our reception centers in Utah, Forget-me-not flowers surrounding the “Around You” Willow Tree Cake Topper sent a powerful romantic message to all the attending guests at Atrium Weddings. This is Western Gardens reception venue that has an indoor garden ambiance without the worry of the weather!

Their cake was simple yet made a powerful statement. Here basic white two tiered cake with tantalizing dripping chocolate fondant, was created by Sugar Kisses Cakes. It was topped with a beautiful Willow Tree figurine by Susan Lordi. As one of the artist’s Cake Topper collection called “Around You”, it was perfect for this cake poised amid dainty little forget-me-not flower blooms. The flower blooms are a pretty blue that tied in with Kaitlyn’s choice of Royal Blue table linens. With a touch of yellow daisies, this indoor garden reception venue was a beautiful and inviting celebration for all the attending guests.

The families decided to self-cater, which not all Utah wedding venues allow. They served a wide variety of cupcakes, mini-cheesecakes, and fresh seasonal fruit. Kaitlyn chose the venue’s tall silver candlestick centerpieces with the lemon leaf wreaths. Her bridesmaids accented the wreaths with the yellow and white flowers and a shimmering yellow ribbon.

Utah Wedding Venues With Wedding Waffles for Everyone! March 21, 2014

July 19, 2014 Wendy Leave a comment

Wedding Waffles anyone? This was the most well thought out and organized waffle bar I have seen as any of the Utah wedding venues I have attended. Waffles and toppings were kept warm and fresh. There were many toppings to choose from and they were well identified so there was no guessing as to what you were choosing.

Guests also enjoyed a delicious Italian soda bar with their waffles. What a hit! Again, the fun colorful signage left no doubt of the choices. Wedding places in Utah like Atrium create an ambiance of a garden wedding, so this one was like eating breakfast out in the garden.

Tysha and Mason greeted over 400 guests; they were expecting nearly 450, so I would say that was pretty good planning. These guests first found the sign-in table was actually covered by a large quilt put together by the family. There were plenty of permanent fabric markers and guests signed their names and wrote little notes to the couple. What a beautiful and useful item this couple will enjoy, especially as they go on picnics or go sit in the park for a concert! Snuggling in a blanket full of such love and advice from so many loved ones and memories of their first day together. I would imagine that this was the most thoughtful long lasting wedding celebration gift for the newlyweds of all the weddings at any of the wedding reception venues in Utah that day.

Linens consisted of a white base and a tiffany blue pin tuck topper. On the buffet table a topper in a cool green mint was the accent. The guest tables were dotted with beautiful photos of the couple around bouquets of flowers created by Tysha’s grandmother. With the touch of several blue chiffon sashes to accent throughout the garden, this finished off the decorations.

Tysha’s cake was designed and created by Bay Shore Cakes and reflected again her unique style and elegance. Three pure white tiers with three different styles on each layer. One with shades of blue zig-zags, one with white layered discs, and the top just a smooth fondant topped with beautiful orange rose bouquet with white baby’s breath. A stunning work of art that reflected the class of this couple at this Utah wedding reception.
