The bride wanted a feeling of serenity in the lounge area. This ice Buddha is eight feet tall and six feet wide--making for a lot of serenity!
For the transition from the ceremony to the cocktail hour at the Bellagio’s Hyde, the event team replaced all existing furniture at Hyde. Even the existing hanging lighting was replaced with six chandeliers in the lounge area.

The bride wanted a damask pattern throughout her wedding; the event team incorporated the motif into the invitations, the lounge areas at the ceremony, on throw pillows in the cigar lounge, and on the wedding cake (shown here).
The event team had a custom mirrored stage created for the piano player and the vocalist, Jaime, from the Pussycat Dolls. Lighting transitioned into cool, welcoming tones.
