Having two separate celebrations lent itself to choosing two different wedding venues in Salt Lake.  This bride had the best of two worlds.  Ceremony in a large majestic elegant room and an indoor garden reception.  She used Western Gardens two reception centers in Salt Lake City – Ivy House Weddings in Downtown and Atrium Weddings in Sandy.

  
On Friday evening, the couple and their close family and friends, who also were part of the wedding party, celebrated at Ivy House Weddings at Western Gardens Downtown.  After running through a rehearsal of the next day’s ceremony, the group enjoyed a sit down dinner.  Family and friends relished a delicious meal catered by GoodWood.   Guests enjoyed several choices – salad, prime rib, pineapple chicken, shrimp, fluffy potatoes, and steamed asparagus and another medley of cooked vegetables.

Saturday morning, the wedding party returned for the real thing at this wedding venue.  The bride and her bridesmaid prepared in the spacious and elegant brides room.   This bride was elegantly adorned with a cream colored wedding gown which fit beautifully with the decor of Ivy House.  Everyone was stunned at her poise and radiance as her father escorted her down the isle.  Purple sashes accented several of the chairs along the way.  Her bridesmaid’s wore purple and black attired and all carrying bouquets with a touch of purple with yellow, white, and deep red.

By early afternoon, the couple was on their way to another celebration with a different flavor.  The wedding party would soon enjoy another one of Western Gardens wedding reception centers in Salt Lake City, Atrium Weddings further south in Sandy.  Being done by 2pm allowed Ivy House staff to prepare for a different event booked at Ivy House the same evening.
