Wedding at the Natural History Museum
Jessica&Adam got married on June 18, 2011 at the Natural History Museum, a theatrical and elegant venue, educational and impressive in color and size of the exhibits and slightly morbid in its taxidermy heaven. But then, it's the opposing elements that make a modern wedding swing.
When two architects get married expect lots of cool stationary like this amazing drawing of the ceremony on their programs.
The ceremony was under a huge dome and when Jessica peeked down from the upper balcony to check on the design and her 220 guests patiently awaiting the sweet moment, she was fascinated: "Just like I had dreamed it".
One of the best moments: they both stepped on the glass and the roaring "Mazzletoff" made the deer's horns shake.
The design was understated, smart and romantic and let the venue be grand. Jessica's dress, a symphony of lace, was an epiphany of finesse, as delicate as the petite beauty wearing it. The small white rose bouquets in vintage silver vases (La Vie en Rose) on the endlessly long tables were crisp and cleanly organic and perfect in their subtlety, also practical as the food was served family style. Paella Project did a great and tasty job.
