Last week we had a super-fabulous celebration at Chase Court hosted by Equality Maryland to celebrate the writing into law of same-sex marriage in Maryland. It was an over-the-top sampling of food, drink, decor, entertainment, and more. Take a look…
Can you tell that something special was about to happen?
Those beautiful little jewel-like LED lanterns from Crimson & Clover Floral Design were hung in the trees, teasing the eye and showing the way through the entrance garden.
The lights were turned down low and the fire in the fireplace was burning brightly. Sparkly linens, very cool floating candles in tall glass vases, and a slick airbrushed cake were just the start!
Yummy goodies from Chef’s Expressions were on the tables, surrounded by hydrangeas bursting out of shiny vases. Oh, and the drapes… All the way to the ceiling—fifteen feet tall!
We were rocking the bling with crystals suspended from the chandeliers and sparkly-tufted furniture. The photographs just begin to describe how all that draping changed the look and feel of the ballroom.
The total effect was spectacular!
It was a wonderful party! Our thanks to Equality Maryland for their part in making same-sex marriage legal in Maryland!
Here is the article in the Washington Blade about the event.
