Eclectic, jewel-toned wedding with a focus on entertainment at Crystal Ballroom - Elsa & Jack

August 2022 | From park to concert venue - a party full of entertainment, featuring a jewel-toned color palette, shaved ice, fire entertainment, caricature portraits, a CO2 cannon and lots of headbanging.


Elsa and Jack threw the biggest party of their and their friends lives full of memorable events, entertainment, and color. We had such a blast helping them will full service planning, from helping to find their killer vendor team to guiding them to the eclectic and colorful design that really reflected Elsa and Jack and fit the uniqueness of the McMenamin's venue.


The day started with a romantic and quiet first look at their rooftop Airbnb in Portland. Thanks to First Student Transportation, E&J and their wedding party rode in style to their next destination: Cathedral Park. Officiant Jimmie wrote the most beautiful ceremony script that had people asking "where did you know him from?" They sealed it with a shot, shaved ice, and a fire performance while we set up at Crystal Ballroom.


When guests entered into the Crystal Ballroom, that's when the party began. Caricature artist, foosball, a photo booth, and the best custom signature drinks welcomed guests, and the night really kicked off with their balloon drop at the end of their first dance. Throw a CO2 cannon and DJing by Jordan with Lit Productions and there you have it: the biggest party of your life.
