Lauren Chitwood Events

Lori and Dan are the perfect example of having a themed event and doing it right!

They completely committed to the Circus de Soleil style in all aspects of the event from the invitation wording to the decor, and the huge floor decal.

The couple came to LCE wanting to completely transform their reception space. We were absolutely up to the challenge, and everything came together beautifully.

We’re certain you won’t be able to guess where this reception took place, but hope you’ll try!

All the images you see here were captured by the awesome Amy Campbell of Angela Anderson Photography.

Hair and Makeup by Applied Cosmetic Services.  Lori actually decided to have a second look when she changed into her reception dress as you’ll see later.

This Lazaro is to die for!!!

The bridesmaids carried whimsical bouquets full of color!

Cocktail Hour took place under the festoon lighting.  All draping and lighting provided by Camargo Rentals.

Lori and Dan got a peak at the reception just before their guests.  Their reaction is priceless!!

Awesome dance floor decal tied the circus theme together!

Lori’s second look rocked…plus it made it waaayyy easier to dance!

The delectable cake below was provide by Mert’s Cakes!

Have you guessed yet where this reception took place?  The ceremony site was actually St. Joseph Hill Catholic Church in Sellersburg, IN, and the reception took place…

in the church’s gym!!

Dan’s band even took the stage for a set! All other reception entertainment was provided by Coxx Events.

Showtime Photo Booth was on the scene with a cardboard cut out of Lori’s cat as well as tons of other props!

In true circus style, we had some fun treats outside for guests to enjoy including lemonade, funnel cake, and even cotton candy!

What a great way for all the guests to end their evening!

To theme weddings that rock!

Mary Margaret and Weston were looking for a relaxed open air feel to their romantic wedding in Cox’s Creek.  We toyed with the idea for some time of having a completely open air concept- just a night under festoon lighting with lanterns all around.  Unfortunately Mother Nature had other plans but Camargo Rentals came to the rescue and put up the awesome clear span tent (seen below) which totally saved the day.

All the wonderful images provided by the amazing Todd Pellowe!

Hair and Makeup by Applied Cosmetic Services.  Stunning!

We loved the pop of color in the gorgeous green of the bridesmaids’ dresses!

The event took place at a private residence beautifully surrounded by forestry and lakes.  Simply dreamy!!!   The ceremony was anchored by this amazing tree, directly next to the smaller lake.

For the ease of their guests, the family decided to transport everyone with the help of R&R Limousines and Toby Tours.

Seriously have you ever seen a more beautiful location for a wedding?!

The texture of this cake is so cool… and of course it’s a Mert’s Cake so you know it’s as delicious as it is gorgeous!

White linens, tons of candles, and colorful petals with the amazing lighting looked so clean and beautiful! 

We’re in Bourbon Country so we had to have a great collection!!  These custom bars were built just for this party & fit in really nicely with the decor!

The families opted to have a cocktail style reception to keep guests up and mingling.  All enjoyed scrumptious delights from Wiltshire Pantry while chatting and dancing.

Music provided by Familiar Faces Band.

Limbo…classic!

The perfect end to a great evening.  The 1956 Vintage Bentley from Person to Person Limousines whisked the couple off to their happily ever after!

Other vendors that made the day great Kentucky Portable, Dr. George Strunk, Commonwealth Musicians.

To Dreamy Locations & Great Couples,

We are so blessed to have clients that are beautiful on the inside and out- Jacquelyn and Landon are such a great example of this!  You may recognize Jacquelyn from the January 2011 issue of Nfocus Magazine.  She was one of the ladies featured along with other Louisville brides whose jobs service our community.

Hair and Makeup by none other than Ana at Applied Cosmetic Serivces!!

Amy, Angela Anderson Photography‘s Lead Photographer captured all of these romantic images.

A great alternative for a bride or groom who can’t decide whether to have a first look or not:  Jacquelyn and Landon saw each other for the first time at St. John United Church of Christ, but alone.  This allowed them to get all of the photos they wanted while still keeping their first look intimate.  We even had Landon wait on the altar as Jacquelyn walked down the aisle towards him!

We could literally post every picture from this stop they made in St. James Court.  The setting and the people are stunning!

The ceremony took place at The Brown Hotel.  Although any color scheme looks great in this historic location the sky blue, white, and gold worked great with the setting!

Thanks to Familiar Faces Band for providing great entertainment all night!!

Techno Band Break….such a blast!!

Their fabulous cake was provided by The Sugarwoods.  Transportation by Miller Trailways, and lovely ceremony music by Commonwealth Musicians!  We wish we could do it all over again!  What a wonderful bride and groom and a great group of family and friends!
