Wedding reception centers in Salt Lake City can help alleviate or make worse any catastrophe that may happen on that most special day. This beautiful couple experienced disasters that no one wishes upon anyone, especially on their wedding day. Thankfully, Atrium Weddings event coordinator was there to calm the situations that she nor the couple had no control over.
First the cake provider, not recommended by Atrium, called and indicated they had dropped the wedding cake masterpiece. They would try to salvage what was possible and would be behind schedule. When it finally came, only the middle and top layers were somewhat there. Without the bride seeing the disaster that sat upon the beautiful silver cake pedestal, the Atrium host and family jumped into action. One scurried away and bought two round white cakes from a local grocery store, another retrieved some ribbon from previous decorating of the Utah wedding location, and others kept the bride occupied in the bride’s room while some doctoring took place. By the time the bride emerged, she had a 3-tiered cake again. Only the original top was used and ribbon was placed to hide the seams of the other two new layers. It turned out fine and the bride was grateful for the teamwork of her family and Atrium staff.
If the cake nightmare wasn’t enough, the Reverend to perform the ceremony finally arrived an hour late. That put everyone on edge, but again, Atrium’s event host was there to calm the waters and make do with a tense situation. The caterers waited, guests waited, bride and groom waited; however, it did give some extra time to fix the wedding cake presentation.
Because the dinner was so delayed, the Atrium staff jumped into high-gear to set up for the reception after everyone had enjoyed their late meal. It was all resolved and gratefully, Atriums’ professionalism was calming and helped make the evening another beautiful wedding celebration of love at Atrium Weddings. These Salt Lake City wedding reception guests had no idea all that had taken place just hours before.
After it all, the bride was so grateful that she left this written note to Atrium Weddings. “You are all amazing! You made my day smooth and stress free – Just what every Bride needs!”
We at Atrium are glad that we could be there to help alleviate and help solve these uncontrollable events.
There are many wedding locations in Utah, but none had a flamenco flair on April 6, 2012. Take a peek at the celebration that took place at Atrium Weddings at Western Gardens in Sandy, Utah. The two pink flamingo bride and groom will greet you as you join in the party and meet a beautiful and fun wedding couple.
These two best friends were married and attended a wedding party unique and exciting for all to enjoy. Pablo is from Mexico and his family also attend this wonderful celebration. Alina is an exciting adventurer and has been taking flamenco dancing, so it was natural to include in their wedding celebration a taste of Spain.
Guests first witnessed a tender ring ceremony with these two friends, now lovers. Then four friends stood and surprised the wedding couple with several quartet songs. They were good! A toast was presented and all guest tables had sparkling cider and goblets to raise and wish the newlyweds a wonderful future. Guests lined up to a beautiful buffet of chicken cordon-blue, steamed vegetables, potatoes, gravy, and soft rolls. No one could go away hungry.
When all were seated, a professional Flamenco dancing group of two dancers and two guitarists entertained the party with authentic Spanish dancing. The main dancer used castanets, a shawl, and a fan throughout several dances to charm the wedding couple and guests. The entertainment was topped with the bride joining her dance teacher in doing some flamenco herself. It was a beautiful moment. This bride has a flair for learning new things in life.
Cutting the cake was definitely on the fun side of the event. Then after was the first dance. It was then that everyone could see that the bride was wearing the same turquoise blue keds that her new husband was wearing. These two are going to have a wonderful life full of love and adventure.
What a beautiful couple that found love through friendship. Utah wedding locations are plentiful, but Atrium Wedding in Sandy, Utah, is a beautiful backdrop for two best friends to celebrate their new eternal love.
Comments from mother of the bride included the following: Overall a great experience! We would absolutely recommend us to friends or use Atrium Weddings again. Many of our guests commented how they enjoyed the celebration and they loved the Atrium’s beauty. Thanks, it was lovely!
This bride looked at many wedding venues in Utah before choosing the Atrium wedding reception center for her late winter reception. Walls of lush green plants frame a majestic hall where guests gather to sign the guest book, greet the wedding party, and linger to enjoy delicious refreshments. The guests entered through grand doors and were directed to the guest book table complete with photos of the couple. 
The entrance included the archway displaying the couples first names on a ribbon. The line to greet the newlyweds was enjoyable because of a big screen TV slide showing bridal shots, and engagement photos. The couple greets their guests in front of a beautiful and cozy fireplace and hearth, and after hugs, kisses, and words of congratulations, the guests flow to the refreshment buffet tables.
This bride chose to serve her guests a delicious fresh salad, warm rolls, and other delicacies accented with sparkling punch. The couple also chose to have a hot cocoa bar to take off the winter chill from outside, and a candy table dedicated to the brides wedding color, purple. 
While guests socialized and enjoyed their refreshments, they were entertained with beautiful music from a friend pianist at the grand piano and views of waterfalls and gorgeous plants around the room. The centerpieces on the tables were also a point of interest with pictures of the bride and groom backdropped with classy candles and purple ribbons. A very pleasant and relaxed atmosphere was enjoyed by all, especially the bride’s mother and father!
This elegant and beautiful Utah wedding was a great success. Around 600 guests came and celebrated this special day with the new couple in this beautiful venue. This is one of the largest receptions Atrium Weddings has hosted. 
Winter weddings in Salt Lake City can take on a summer feel in locations like the Atrium. This beautiful Utah wedding location is green and lush all year round, and is always ready to create wonderful memories for couples and families.
Bright and outgoing is the mood of this bride!
For Salt Lake wedding receptions, most typically, brides have their reception colors chosen long before there is a ring on her finger! You have probably dreamed of your most special day in certain colors since you were in elementary school. Your colors are you!
Color is very important to your event. The colors you use in your wedding reception tells more about you than you may realize. Color reflects your mood and personality and sets a tone for all the guests at your celebration. For example, reds and yellows and oranges set an exciting and fun ambiance, while greens and blues create a feeling of harmony and peace. Metallic colors portray elegance and sophistication. With your color scheme, you will be directing the aura and the flow of your ceremony and celebrations.
Simple deep blue with white ribbon accent was beautiful
Sometimes the season of the year can enhance your wedding reception. Say you want red in your color scheme, but it’s a spring wedding. Add yellow and green to your red with maybe a touch of orange and it fits into the feel of new spring growth. But then again, simple red and white with the greens of spring can be an elegant spring mixture. Whereas, if you have a winter wedding reception, red with black and white is a popular stunning combination.
Red with black and white is simple elegance
Salt Lake City wedding venues are varied in styles and the venue you choose should be considered when finalizing your colors. If you are holding your event in a garden setting, like Atrium Weddings in Salt Lake City, the variety of plants already offer a sea of greens that can be accented with your spring yellows and pinks. A garden center also lends itself to winter celebrations, again because the green decor is already present. Accent with your reds with black and white, and you have a memorable beautiful celebration at a magical time of year.
Whether you are getting married spring, fall, summer, or winter, you can use your favorite colors to create that perfect mindset for your guests, reflecting the joy you are feeling that day at your Salt Lake City wedding.
Browns and reds are a beautiful accent to the bride in white!
Okay, you’ve decided that you want your wedding celebration at a reception center, rather than in your backyard or the church gymnasium. The next step of planning your wedding reception can seem like an overwhelming task. But if you break it down into simple, easy-to-tackle sections, the process becomes exciting and fun. You’ll find yourself enjoying the journey culminating in an incredible wedding celebration, your final destination. Here is how I break the tasks down to size. Don’t forget to use your choice of a central note-taking tool. A pad of paper works well, or an electronic tool like a smart phone, or tablet of your choice. Always have this with you as you make plans, it will save your mind and your time in the long run.
I like to break the first part of planning in to the three W’s – When, Where, and What. They are pretty big and important parts of the planning, but you can figure them all in one sit-down brainstorming session with your fiancé. Be prepared to possibly make some little changes along the way, but you’ve got to have a starting point. The When? Where? and What? is the beginning.
First is to decide WHEN you are having your big day. It is good to have a couple of date possibilities, but knowing this is crucial for the next decision of WHERE. You don’t want to waste your time looking for that perfect wedding venue unless you have an idea of when your event is to take place. Imagine finally making a choice of where you want your most important event to happen, only to find out that it is already booked for the day you’ve finally decided upon. Wedding places in Utah book up quickly, so don’t let this first step pass too quickly. Get your preferences and start the search of your perfect venue that can replicate your dream wedding.
Atrium Weddings reception center in Salt Lake Valley is a beautiful option for your celebration
As mentioned above, the WHERE is now in play. Google your search as specific as you can. Some suggested keywords to search could be “wedding reception centers” or “wedding venues” and if you want a particular area, add that city. For example “wedding reception centers Salt Lake City” or “wedding reception centers in Salt Lake City” will help you narrow your quest to more specific options in your area. Browse those venues that catch your eye and make your list of top places you want to pursue. Request more information by email, if only to simply test that company’s responsiveness. A very good first question to ask would be to check on the availability of that venue for the couple of dates you’ve chosen. This could prove very important in the future if you choose to work with them. Your search will narrow, it is time to go visit the venues you’ve listed as your top possibilities. Now it’s time to consider the WHAT’s of your quest.
Ice Cream is always a hit with everyone!
Colorful salads are refreshing works of art!
Third, WHAT are you going to do for your special celebration? Serve a full course dinner? Serve only finger foods? Dance? Play games? Serve only your wedding cake? These are the kind of questions only YOU and your lover can imagine for YOUR special day.
Deciding these three w’s is the first step, then it will be time to do the how’s, but not until these three are complete. For now, go out and find your dream wedding reception center! You’ll have plenty to do after you get these three W’s completed! Reminder! Don’t forget to keep your wedding writing tool handy!
