Mona and Milan came to me with their wedding. They had already booked Moulin Meetings and Events, which was the perfect place for their Egyptian/ American reception. With the love and support of their families, we planned an absolutely amazing three days for them. We started off on Thursday with a ceremony at the Worlds Fair Pavilion. Mona wore traditional Indian attire that her mother-in-law to be picked out for her directly from India. Having a ceremony at the Worlds Fair Pavilion is easy! It is such a beautiful landmark in St. Louis. We created a large square in the center for a fabulous lunch that was provided by Westwood Catering.Friday was the Indian reception that took place at the Contemporary Art Museum. This event was a little harder because we had to find a caterer that could make fresh Bombay street fair food. We had Exclusive Events completely transform the CAM. The walls were washed in colored lights, overlapping gobos, sari's hanging from the ceiling along with Moroccan lanterns. We did long family style seating to maximize the space. The tables were draped with colored linens from BBJ and the florals were provided by Artistry Florist. They had flown in a sitar player that has played Carnegie Hall and dancers entertained the guests as they ate.
Saturday night was to pay tribute to Mona's Egyptian heritage. The reception took place at Moulin Meetings and Events. Exclusive Events created a grand entrance for the bride and groom. The entrance was draped with a lush orange crushed fabric and dry ice smoke was blown in to create a dramatic entrance. A traditional Egyptian band came in from out of state to parade Mona and Milan in as a part of the zeffa. Their wedding cake was provided by The Cakery Bakery, flowers again from Artistry, CJ's DJ's provided dance music, and of course, the design and wedding day coordination from Alred Wedding Consultants
