And, the winner is...

Amber and Christian are the winners of the most creative wedding contest. Their wedding will be held in the Fall of 2008 in Arkansas. These two are wild and wacky, on top of being incredibly talented. Amber and Christian are both performers currently working in Las Vegas.

So here are some of the fine and funky details:
- Their theme is Old Time Ganster-era Vegas!!!!
- The ceremony will be held in a beautiful location in Bella Vista, Arkansas in a glass chapel in the forest called Mildred B. Cooper Memorial Chapel. See picture to the right.
- In the Fall, the chapel will be surrounded by the changing leaves...reds, oranges and yellows. They plan to be married at sunset so adorning the aisle will be candles and draped cream fabric.
- Without giving too much away, the bride intends to wear a voluminouss cream dress with a ribbon wrapped up her arm!!
- The men will be styled in pin stripe suits with striped cream and white ties.
- The fathers will undoubtedly gain quite a bit of attention in wingtips and top hats which apparently they are very excited about!
- The have selected not to use any flowers but instead all rich green plants.
- The bride and groom will travel to the reception in a black jeep wrangler while the wedding party boards a three bedroom RV! I think there will be some partying on the way to the reception.
- At the reception, the bride will enter in wearing a hot pink fedora. There will be a bunch of tiny, almost not noticeable hints of hot pink throughout the reception. There will also be white and cream fabric draped everywhere, and deep green plants and candles...think Drai's in Vegas, if you've ever been!
- Outside the reception is a huge patio where they will bring in firepits and a tent.
- Inside the tent will be POKER and BLACKJACK and a MARTINI BAR.
- Around the wedding cake, the bride's aunt has painted two large silouettes of Amber and Christian on black canvas. The paintings are artsy, curvy figures that will be lit from below and behind the cake!
- I would love to explain the HUGE surprise that the bride intends to give the groom but then it wouldn't be a surprise any longer. Let's just say in a nutshell it is a symbol of their personalities that they can enjoy for years. It also totally goes along with the theme of the night.

So with a wedding like that...we could not be more excited! We have only met Amber and Christian once but we can tell they will be the ultimate couple to work with. This is sure to be a wacky, yet beautiful, wedding extravaganza! Did I mention live performances as well?
