Main Hall Reception

The Smeland- Bartels Wedding Reception began on the Rooftop Garden with a lovely afternoon ceremony and quickly moved inside to start the party! The bride and groom started their reception off with a buttery nipple shot and toast to their guests.

Gold was in no shortage with chevron runners and a to-die-for gold sequin linen for the cake table! Seriously this linen is amaz-ing!!! Adrienne’s provided the delicious cupcakes, with plenty so spare for a late-night snack.

Congratulations to the happy couple!

Straight From the Bottle Wine Tasting

June 20, 2014 by icehouse Leave a Comment

The second Straight from the Bottle Wine Tasting hosted by The Ice House and Crushed Ice Events was a huge success with double the attendance of the first class!

The June class primarily focused on a review of the wine tasting techniques from the first class and the study of Old World wines. Guests learned how to identify the different flavors, smells, varietals, as well as the different regions that classify a wine as Old World. Many avid wine drinkers prefer Old World Wines as oppose to New World Wines. Your Old World Wines consist of classic varietals from Greece, Italy, Spain and France.

The July class will primarily be focused on the study of New World wines and the difference between their backgrounds and wine making regions. New World Wines are on the rage and come from countries such as South America and New Zealand.

As this event series continues to grow, you don’t want to miss out on a great selection of New Zealand and California wines from up and coming wine making markets.

The Ice House was filled with yellow florals and up-lighting from top to bottom for the Dicken- Todd Louisville Wedding this past weekend. Fleur de Lis Events & Design provided the gorgeous centerpieces, floral arrangements, votives, and gray linens pictured below.

Cocktail hour was held on the East Terrace as guests arrived from the ceremony site… Crushed Ice Events had stationed and passed appetizers prior to dinner. The 3 tiered cake was provided by Sweet Surrender and decorated in florals by Fleur de Lis Events & Design.

Yellow up-lighting has never looked so good in the Main Hall!
