The great thing about ADH is that you don't have to do a lot of decorating...and the lights, gobos on the curtains and disco ball are already there! We wanted what we did add to be very fun and incorporate little bits of Disney, as I'd tried to do all along...and that I love twinkle lights. We told Laura that we didn't want anything traditional and to just go crazy.
To seat our 75 guests, we had a large head table and 4 - 10 tops on the dance floor and used some of the higher level seating. We decided to cover all of the chairs on the floor and add a sash and napkins that matched the colour of the girls dressed. I sent Laura a colour swatch and they matched great. The tablecloth was included with the venue. For the tables we used on the upper level (only the ones that line the dance floor), we only used the white tablecloths that were provided and the napkins. It was too expensive to change out the chairs.
Chair covers and sashes - $8.50 each.
Napkins - $2.00 each.
There were two different Centrepieces on the 10 tops on the dance floor...one high and one low.
This was the tallest one. It was a gel, glow cube, confetti vase with a Spider Mum arrangement on top.
"22 inch cylinder vase filled with blue gel and LED lights, mix silver Mickey confetti thoughout."
"Stylized design of Spider Mums (turquoise, hot pink, yellow, lime green, sky blue) - tip each mum in silver glitter, accent with ting ting, design with minimal greenery and with depth, accent with three glimmer stars on picks"
We also added 4 large votives filled with blue or green gel and LED lights.
I don't think I can express how ecstatic I was when I saw these. They came out better than I could have asked...absolutely love, love, loved them!!!! Cylinder rental was $10 each, $4.75 for each glimmer star and $100 for the arrangement - Total $135. Each of the large votives added as an accent on the table were $4.50 each.
The low Centrepieces were Sorcerer Mickey hats with "coloured Mums tipped in silver glitter, ting ting, minimal greenery, accent with silver stars." These also had the large gel votives. I don't have a price for these.
These were equally as fantastic as the tall ones. They fit what we asked for to an absolute T!!!!!
Our head table was definitely not as exciting as the other tables. We used the two ceremony arrangements, with the added twinkle stars. We also had three "triple cylinder vases filled with gel in blue and light green, silver Mickey confetti mixed throughout and LED cubes." These match the single 9" cylinders that were on the smaller upper level tables. There were also more of the large gel votives. We had some Scottish and Canadian themed stuffed animals and a wedding Mickey and Minnie that we included.
Triple Cylinders - $60 each including $15 rental.
9" Cylinders - $20 each including $5 rental.
The lighting effects that you see were already built into ADH and therefore didn't cost us a penny extra!
Your flowers are beautiful! Your MOH and BM flowers are exactly what I am looking for! My color is purple so it will go well. SO the MOH's was $150 and the Bms' were $130? That is not bad. I am also thinking of using their bouquets as my centerpieces. Did you do your flowers through Disney?Here is what we had for our bridal party floral...the descriptions are from my floral proposal and I have included prices for your reference!
My Bouquet
"White and Ivory Roses, Light Green Jade Roses and a few Royal Blue dyed Roses, mostly white with accents of blue, accent with Stephanotis with sapphire blue crystals and clear crystals (singles and Mickey's) throughout"
I also had them hide a thistle underneath a the back (BAD IDEA!!) and a few other little trinkets - keychain of Craig's soccer team and my hockey team, a crystal letter "C" and a sister charm that my sis bought in the hotel gift shop. I also supplied all of the tartan ribbon to wrap the stems. None of this was an issue.
There were a total of 46 swarovski crystals in clear and blue for $1.00 each. The bouquet jewel was $28 and I feel like that included the delivery for all of them. Bouquet was $299 total. I also had a toss bouquet that matched and was $35.
Generally, I liked it...but...the jades were very yellow not green...the ivory roses were brown on the edges when I got them and only got worse throughout the day...it was misted with "Pixie Dust" which made them look dirty. The dyed Blue Roses were awesome!!
Girls
Maid of Honour - "White, Ivory and Lavender Roses with Heather and Thistle accents, accent with Stephanotis with clear swarovski crystals"
Bridesmaids were the same but no stephanotis.
My junior bridesmaid was "white and ivory spray roses with heather and thistle" so it was a little lighter and smaller.
There were 5 crystals and a monogram ($13). They were $150, $130 and $85.
They were a lot more purple than I'd expected which didn't match anything, but very pretty. I put the monograms in all of their bouquets as a surprise and nice keepsake.
This is the MOH...
Boys
Groom - "Thistle, Stephanotis, with crystal Mickey accent and Ivy" - $18
All the other boys were "Thistle with Heather accent and Ivy". - $15 plus an extra $3 for my dad and the ringbearers to add a crystal Mickey in each.
Like my bouquet, the thistle looked cool, but really hurt when you hugged people! This pic is of Craig's...
I apparently don't have pics of the mom and grandma corsages, but we had three types that were just slightly different.
The Moms - "White Spray Roses, Stephanotis with a crystal Mickey and Ivy" - $34
Stepmom - "White Spray Roses, Thistle, Ivy" - $26
Grandmother - "White Spray Roses, Lavender, Ivy" - $26
I also didn't use a lot of floral.
