Hotel Saint Cecilia and Skybox on 6th
04/13/2024
My Real-Life Barbie and Ken! If I had to sum up Chloe and Michael’s wedding weekend in three ways, they’d be: intimate yet inclusive, fun-focused, and PINK!
For the ceremony, Chloe and Michael wanted something smaller, with just their closest family and wedding party. We chose Hotel Saint Cecilia, which was the perfect spot since all their ceremony guests were staying at the hotel. This made for a cozy, unforgettable experience for everyone involved. One of their dear friends officiated, and there wasn’t a dry eye in the room. Afterward, the group hopped on the iconic Austin Trolley and headed to Skybox for the reception. The intimate ceremony allowed Chloe and Michael to enjoy some quality time with their nearest and dearest before the larger celebration, where the real party began!
As soon as we arrived at Skybox, I knew it was going to be a night to remember. The jazz band at cocktail hour set the tone, and then The Nightowls took the stage, keeping the dance floor packed all night long. The fun didn’t stop there—our afterparty with Austin Silent Disco was a hit! Watching everyone rock those headphones was one of the highlights of the evening—such a hilarious and unforgettable moment!
Chloe had a clear vision from the start: PINK, and we went all in! I remember asking her how much pink she wanted, and she said, “As much as possible!” So that’s exactly what we did. From the vibrant florals by Remi & Gold to the custom dance floor by Centerstage, to the show-stopping round bar (check out that epic drone shot by Jeff Brummett), every detail was infused with the perfect amount of pink. We even asked guests to dress in their finest pink for the reception, which was such a fun touch. When the elevator doors opened at Skybox, it was a sea of pink, and it was pure magic!
Looking back, Chloe and Michael’s wedding was a celebration of love, laughter, and a truly amazing couple. It was an absolute joy to design, and I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome. Huge thanks to Chloe and Michael for trusting me to be a part of their special day. Cheers!
XOXO,
Tessa
