Jay and Lisa’s big day at Motor City Casino

Every week we do dozens and dozens of weddings and other special events. Unfortunately I don’t always get the chance to be onsite for the install. This past weekend, I was able to be onsite during the entire install from the first linen going on the tables to the last light getting turned on. Jay Lazar and Lisa Rasansky Wedding Ceremony at Motor City Hotel and CasinoYou might ask why I am writing about it, simple, this is why we do what we do. We love creating events from beginning to end whether they are small or large.

This was the wedding for Jay Lazar and Lisa Rasansky. The ceremony was held at The Motor City Casino and Hotel and the reception which followed immediately was inside Sound Board. Planning for the big day started about a year ago and over the course of time, everything started coming together. We worked closely with Andrea Solomon, the wedding planner, along with Twig & Berries, the florist, to pull it off.

Lisa, the bride, wanted simple but elegant. We had a simple color pallet of silver, pink and white. In addition to the color, the client chose lots of crystals to be suspended from the ceiling. The florist hung sections of crystals over the aisle for the ceremony and we used our wireless pin spots to illuminate the panels to make them pop. We also draped the entire back wall behind the Chuppah and lit it up with hot pink LED’s to match the hot pink in the chandeliers.

Heading into the Sound Board was my favorite part of the event. Here we were able to take an already amazing space and make it even cooler! We started by suspending 6 of our 20’ crystal columns from the overhead trussing and lit them in pure white with our LED lights.Jay Lazar and Lisa Rasansky Wedding Reception inside Sound Board at the Motor City Hotel and Casino Throughout the room, we used a combination of 3 different table linens all in the same color, but various textures. We used our Platinum Loveable, our Silver Manhattan Sheer and our Silver Iridescent Crush. We took the menu cards and wrapped them with our Charcoal Majesty napkins. We brought in our Silver Chiavari chairs with white leather pads for all of the tables. Following behind us, Twig & Berries did an assortment of centerpieces at various heights and styles to draw your eyes to the tables. While the venue already had a ton of lighting, we added another 3 dozen LED uplights to illuminate the ceiling area above the seating areas. Together with the A/V techs from the Sound Board, we lit the room up in white, pink and light purple. It was stunning to say the least.Jay Lazar and Lisa Rasansky Wedding Reception inside Sound Board at the Motor City Hotel and Casino
