One of the ways we love to add personalization to a venue is to design a unique lounge area for guests to relax in during cocktail hour. With the right pairing of couches, chairs, and throw pillows you can easily transform a space. Today we’re looking at the lounge areas from two completely different weddings, same venue! 

For Ashwin and Sarah’s Indian wedding we selected bright jewel tones and golden hues. The assortment of lanterns hanging from the ceiling and the turquoise ottoman draw in the eye for a stunning effect. Plus the fabric ceiling hangings really add intimacy to the space.

For Jill and Mitch’s late summer wedding we stuck to cream and beige tones, with soft pink throw pillows and cheerful florals. We selected vintage cottage furniture — think the summer home of your dreams! The chandelier lighting adds the perfect touch of glitz and elegance. Photography by Pat Furey. Rentals by Rent Patina.

Both weddings were held at Cedar Lakes Estate — but adding a unique lounge area really pulled together a cohesive look for each individual wedding. We love unleashing our inner interior designer!
