DIANE SAWYER TO COVER ART MUSEUM WEDDING
A Perfect Day has been selected by ABC to have one of their weddings televised.
Planning any newsworthy weddings.
We are planning a Hindu wedding in Pasadena complete with an arrival of the groom by an elephant, as well as a traditional Catholic wedding on the Amalfi Coast of an A-list Hollywood director...take your pick!"
ABC chose the local event which will prove to be quite a spectacle.
Diane Sawyer will cover the event which will actually be two weddings in one. The wedding, to be held at the Pasadena Museum of California Art, will include a Hindu ceremony, to which the Groom will arrive by Asian Elephant, and will be followed by a traditional Western ceremony. The dinner will be a traditional Indian meal served family style.
Hindu tradition dictates that the groom be brought to the mother of the bride by elephant to ask her permission for the nuptials. He is accompanied by his family as well as two dancers who will lead the way. Once permission is granted, the grooms family is invited into the ceremony site which includes an area replete with pillows, a Sitar player and a traditional, floral mandap -- a naturalistic structure built to contain the bride and groom during their vows. A traditional fire ceremony is also part of the festivities.
Next, the bride and groom will don their Western, or American, clothes and retire indoors for the Protestant ceremony the site for which will be a surprise for the guests. Most brides dream of a single wedding dress, but this bride gets to wear two!", says Meyer of A Perfect Day, The design elements will prove to be quite striking. Set against the backdrop of the architectural beauty of the museum, we are creating a stunning and naturalistic, outdoor presentation of vibrant Hindu tradition. Inside we are creating a completely different mood for the Protestant ceremony. It is the dream of any event designer to have these kinds of tools to work with.
A Perfect Day Event Design and Planning is the perfect consultant for this event. The dictates of a two-in-one wedding plays into their hand, expertise in theatrical production. Though the wedding will be challenging," says partner Steele, it is the perfect event for us. The dual wedding ceremonies amount to a scene change in a play or a set change in a film. That is something Stephanie and I are experts at achieving. I am excited to have this event covered for national television."
