Creating a Fairytale Ballroom Reception

Every bride and groom dreams of a wedding that feels like a scene straight out of a storybook. At Crest Hollow Country Club, our opulent ballrooms provide the perfect canvas for a magical and enchanting fairytale reception. With sparkling chandeliers, custom lighting, and luxurious decor, you can transform your special day into an unforgettable celebration. Here are some ideas to bring your vision to life:


1. Set the Mood with Sparkling Chandeliers

Nothing says elegance and romance like the glow of chandeliers. Crest Hollow’s ballrooms feature stunning crystal fixtures that add a timeless charm to your reception.

Why It Works: The warm and shimmering light creates a romantic atmosphere, perfect for a fairytale wedding.

Pro Tip: Enhance the ambiance with soft uplighting that complements your color scheme.


2. Transform the Space with Custom Lighting

Lighting can completely change the look and feel of your ballroom. Use soft, romantic hues like blush, gold, or lavender to create a dreamlike atmosphere.

Why It Works: Custom lighting highlights key areas, like the dance floor or sweetheart table, making your reception feel uniquely yours.

Pro Tip: Add twinkling fairy lights or a starry night effect on the ceiling for a whimsical touch.


3. Lavish Décor for a Storybook Setting

From grand floral arrangements to elegant table settings, every detail counts when crafting a fairytale reception. Choose decor elements that evoke romance and luxury, such as cascading flowers, ornate candelabras, and satin linens.

Why It Works: Attention to detail creates a cohesive and visually stunning experience for your guests.

Pro Tip: Use tall floral centerpieces and draped fabric to add height and drama to your ballroom.


4. Personalized Touches to Make It Magical

Fairytales are all about the details, and personalizing your reception adds a magical and meaningful touch. Consider custom monograms, themed menus, or a signature cocktail inspired by your love story.

Why It Works: These unique elements make your wedding feel one-of-a-kind and memorable for your guests.

Pro Tip: Incorporate a vintage-style cake topper or a “happily ever after” sign for added charm.


5. The Grand Entrance of Your Dreams

Make your entrance unforgettable by walking into the ballroom through dramatic drapery or under an arch of flowers. Pair this with a romantic song and lighting cues for a truly show-stopping moment.

Why It Works: Your grand entrance sets the tone for the evening and creates a memorable start to the celebration.

Pro Tip: Consider a fog machine to create a cloud-like effect as you make your entrance.


6. Dance the Night Away on a Dreamy Dance Floor

The dance floor is the centerpiece of your reception, so make it magical. Crest Hollow has partnered with some of the best in customizable dance floors that can match your theme, from classic white to intricate designs.

Why It Works: A stunning dance floor encourages guests to join in the celebration and creates picture-perfect moments.

Pro Tip: Add a sparkling disco ball or confetti drop for a fun and festive touch.
