Wedding Feature: A Modern East Meets West Wedding

Wedding Feature: A Modern East Meets West Wedding

In celebration of the Chinese New Year, we’re featuring a beautiful East Meets West Wedding. Here’s a quick walk through, with a timeless red and gold theme. This wedding is a great example of how to mix traditional elements with a modern flair for style.

AM 1

Adding candlelight accentuates a warm atmosphere for guests throughout the evening.

AM 2

Capturing city lights in the background brings a modern flair to a traditional colour scheme. The gold table cloth and the red highlights on both the cake and the backdrop tie the theme together. The contrast between the boldness of the red and the softness of the gold creates a balanced table. In the image below, the red table cloths create a rich visual, which is softened perfectly by the lighter colours of the chairs and tableware.

AM 3

Don’t forget about details in the décor. These beautiful red roses in gold are a stunning way to extend the theme of the wedding for guests to enjoy. The bridal bouquet is also a perfect opportunity to display the red and gold colours.

AM 4Picking a theme and colour scheme is an important part of the wedding planning process. The wedding details always help set the tone for a truly special evening, and it’s important to do your research so you know what will work best for your wedding.

AM 5

Pinterest is a great way to get started. Check out some of our boards here for more inspirations!

✨ Why Corpo Santo Hotel is My Lisbon Favourite ✨

When I stayed at Corpo Santo Hotel in Lisbon, I fell completely in love. 🏛️ The ancient ruins in the basement transport you back in time, while each themed floor tells its own unique story. And don’t even get me started on the 24/7 snacks available on every floor (yes, every floor!) and the cozy, welcoming lobby that feels like a home away from home.

This hotel isn’t just a place to stay—it’s an experience. It’s my go-to recommendation for couples dreaming of a destination wedding in Lisbon. Trust me, you’ll fall in love here too! 💕
