It’s time for Kristen and Keith’s modern meets Art Deco reception inspired by AMC’s Mad Men from Katie Stoops at the Clarendon Ballroom, and you don’t want to miss it! (Did you see their wedding ceremony in DC?) The amazing paper goods carried through every part of their ceremony with custom food and drink menus, a unique guest book and spectacular place cards.
The food, flowers and decor gave the stationery a run for its money, but if you ask Kristen and Keith, music enthusiasts through and through, the record inspired backdrop may have just been the highlight of the day! Other than getting married of course! From Kristen: Above everything else, we wanted people to have fun, which to us meant music that would have us dancing all night! A detail that was so great were the quotes put on to candle holders for all of the tables. My dad requested “Just the Way You Are” by Billy Joel as the very last song of the night.
