When it comes to weddings, finding the perfect balance between elegance, fun, and personal touches can be a challenge. Emily and Matt’s October wedding at SKYLIGHT in Denver achieved just that, creating a celebration that was both timeless and uniquely theirs. Let’s dive into the details of their unforgettable day.
The Vision: Guests of Honor, Not Hosts
As police officers with busy lives, Emily and Matt wanted their wedding day to be a moment of relaxation and joy. Their goal? To become the guests of honor rather than hosts. By opting for month-of planning, they freed up the final months of their engagement to enjoy each other without the stress of last-minute details. The result was a day filled with love, laughter, and cherished memories.
Timeless Elegance with a Modern Twist
The couple chose a classic black-and-white color scheme, accented with sage green for a fresh and sophisticated look. Random at Have a Seat Colorado created a stunning draping installation and ceremony backdrop that perfectly complemented SKYLIGHT’s versatile event space. This timeless setup was beautifully framed against the checkered dance floor, setting the stage for an evening of celebration.
Emily and Matt elevated their decor with thoughtful touches that reflected their personalities. White florals combined with lush Smilax greenery adorned the ceiling, intertwined with sparkling disco balls, creating a party-ready atmosphere. The simplicity of their design choices ensured that their wedding photos would remain timeless for years to come.
Purr-sonal Touches That Stole the Show
The couple’s love for their two cats added a playful and memorable element to their big day. Not only were their signature drinks named after their feline friends, but giant cat faces also made an appearance during the wedding party’s grand entrance, delighting guests and adding a touch of whimsy.
For Emily and Matt, dancing with friends and family was a top priority. The dance floor stayed packed all night, showcasing the joy and energy of their celebration. They even brought back the bouquet toss tradition, using a bridesmaid’s baby’s breath bouquet to keep the festivities fun and lighthearted.
The SKYLIGHT Experience
SKYLIGHT’s in-house rentals, including a corn hole set and photo booth, added to the day’s entertainment and ensured guests had a great time. The venue’s flexibility allowed Emily and Matt to create a wedding that truly felt like their own.
Emily summed up the day perfectly when she entered the venue and admired the ceremony backdrop and dance floor, exclaiming that it was “more perfect than she could have imagined.”
