After 25 years in the events industry, I'm known for my attention to detail, for curating creative and personalized events, and for ensuring a low-stress experience for my clients.
Nestled in the heart of Utah’s Wasatch Mountains lies the luxurious Stein Eriksen Lodge. The rugged mountains and graceful slopes surrounding the lodge provided a stunning backdrop for our “Chanel Meets Château” destination wedding experience. Throughout the planning process, we focused on two words: timeless design. At its core, Stein Eriksen Lodge offers timeless luxury. Chanel is synonymous with timeless style. We leaned into the juxtaposition of each powerful beauty.
The muse for the color palette was found in a luxury product synonymous with timeless style, the iconic Chanel N°5 bottle. The golden aromatic, the way the glass bottle sparkles from the emerald edges, and the bold white and black label blended seamlessly with the delicate yellow leaves and smooth white and black marked bark of the mountainside’s quaking aspens.
The florals had to aesthetically capture the benchmarks of our design, the natural mountainside backdrop as well as the chic evolved elegance of Chanel. The aisle was adorned with continuous rows of white flowers accented by touches of golden yellow. Refined chandeliers created a luminescent canopy overhead. Aspen trees frosted with white blossoms framed the bride and groom.
The art of celebration is DAWNE’s business motto. We specialize in curating moments of significance. We thoughtfully crafted these type of moments for this photo shoot. Soaking up the natural beauty surrounding Stein Eriksen Lodge and gathering the bridal party together to celebrate over several days and activities that are not rushed, but cherished.
