Next week we will be working on a two day event. Friday's event is a Nigerian Cultural Engagement Ceremony. Everyone invited wears traditional Nigerian fashion, very colorful! The venue will be decorated with brown & natural colored twigs, grasses and tied with natural raffia to eight aisle markers. Near the front of the aisle will be a seating area for the groom's mother and father on one side, and the bride's mother and father on the other. At the front the bride and groom to be sit in a place of importance in two wicker chairs. Behind them is a wall screen with African patterned painting. There will be dancing, gifts and loads of fun. Even the boss of Debbie Turner Originals (DTO flowers) will be in a traditional batik wardrobe!
Saturday's event is a traditional Christian wedding ceremony. The bride is in white, and the bridesmaid's in coral colored dresses. The brides bouquet is a lovely mix of green and coral roses, green hydrangea and white freesia. The bridesmaid's will carry Green Goddess carnations with babysbreath & coral ribbon. The altar will have a large arrangement made with coral & apple green gladiolas, and the aisle markers will be abundant boughs of babysbreath.
The reception will have tall arrangements of coral & apple green gladiolas, with green fruit at the bottom, and some tables will be decorated with a plethera of votive candles and rose petals.
The cake will be on a raised cake stand, with votive candles underneath.
