Dayton, Ohio Reverie and Dayton Art Institute Wedding

Nichole and Joey’s wedding was a special one! We loved working with the Schaefer family after planning Nichole’s sister’s wedding as well. Nichole and Joey’s wedding was a beautiful, classic wedding at the Dayton Art Institute filled with greenery and black and gold details throughout.

Nichole and Joey both got ready at Reverie. Reverie has an amazing bridal suite for photos – it is classic all-white with marble accents. I also love the TV’s in the bridal suite – the girls could watch guests take their seats as guests entered the ceremony!

We let the natural beauty of the Dayton Art Institute shine while using black accents throughout the evening. Black napkins, champagne linens, and gold Chiavari chairs. Wood Floral Studio knocked the florals out of the park! The mixture of high and low centerpieces added visual dimension and beauty to the Gothic Cloister space.

The Dayton Art Institute makes a perfect backdrop for portraits. These photos look like they’re straight out of a magazine!

We added the string lights in the Gothic Cloister, and it made such a huge difference! The glow at night was stunning!

This neon sign made a great backdrop for guests to take photos throughout the evening!

A live painter is such a fun touch, especially for an art institute wedding reception. Studio Von is absolutely amazing!

We worked with Jules and Eric to plan the garden wedding of their dreams, and from the very first conversation, we knew it was going to be something special. They came to us with one simple request: “We want a twilight wedding.” And our answer was immediate—done. Set against the iconic backdrop of the Dayton […]

We love working closely with brides, grooms, and often their parents to ensure that every element reflects what matters most to you.  But a beautiful wedding isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about the experience. Every detail is intentionally designed, not just to reflect your style, but to ensure a smooth and memorable day for both you and your guests. From the first steps of planning to the final touches of design, we focus on creating a celebration that feels effortless, personal, and unforgettable.
