Wedding Backup Plans: What To Do and Why They’re Important

July 30, 2018 by icehouse Leave a Comment

Anyone that dreams of the perfect outdoor wedding with the perfect flowers, the perfect pictures, and a perfect first dance under lights strung from trees, also has nightmares of rain and storms. What can you do to insure that your day goes off without a hitch? Aside from a traditional rain dance, or saying a prayer to the Big Man upstairs, there is not much you can do to stop mother nature.  This is why it is CRUCIAL to have a back-up plan! Just ask J-Lo she would know all about this…

No matter what venue you choose, make sure you discuss weather back-up plans. These can be anything from rain delays where you wait it out, tents, or moving the entire ceremony/reception inside. At the Ice House we have multiple back up plans. If you are planning on having your ceremony or reception on our roof-top garden or outdoor terrace, we can always move it inside to our mezzanine or to the main hall. Most venues will have an indoor back-up plan as well, just be sure to ask them about it.

Tents are always a good back-up plan, just know that with most companies they usually have a 24 hour notice policy to guarantee they have time to set the tent up properly. This is not always the case, of course it varies from vendor to vendor, but if the chances of rain on your wedding day are high it’s usually better to play it safe rather than sorry. However make sure to plan for the tent in your budget. It will be much easier on your stress level to have money left over instead of not enough money to pay for the tent.

Rain is not the only weather issue, cold fronts and heat waves can play a major role in outdoor weddings as well. If that is the case there are always heaters, blankets, fans, misters, etc… Not only will the guest appreciate your efforts to keep them comfortable but there are plenty of ways you can work these items into your décor or theme. Pinterest will be your best friend for cases like this!

If it’s going to be a hot outdoor wedding these are just a few options to keep your guests comfortable and cool! Fans make great programs/wedding favors, refreshment stands are a perfect option to keep your guests hydrated, and make for a great photo-op!

               

If you’re afraid it might get a little chilly depending on the time of year, there are plenty of options when it comes to keeping your guests warm. Such as: using blankets as your wedding favors, setting up a hot chocolate stand, or having a s’mores station set up around a fire pit!

             

So no matter the weather just remember, it’s your special day and nothing can rain on your parade! Not even the rain…

Wedding Spotlight: Allison & Matt’s Ice House Reception

December 8, 2016 by icehouse Leave a Comment

Ice House Louisville Featured Wedding: Allison and Matt

We host A LOT of wedding receptions here at the Ice House. We get the extreme pleasure of working with some of the best Clients in the wedding planning world! Allison was no exception to this. To say that this Bride-to-be was a joy to work with is an understatement. From the first meeting with Allison and her Mom, we knew that the Ice House and Crushed Ice Catering were the perfect fit for her. We instantly fell in love with this family – and secretly wanted to grab drinks, chat and become forever BFFs with them.

When choosing a wedding to highlight, we did not have to look far. We are so happy that Allison took the time to provide us with feedback and (AMAZING) photos from her special day.

Summer Weddings: Why We Love Them!

July 6, 2016 by icehouse Leave a Comment

Picking a date for your wedding is a big decision. You may be trying to land a specific day, one with special significance to you and your partner, but often times it comes down to what the venue has available. Many couples shy away from summer dates thinking either spring or fall has better Louisville weather, availability, etc. However, there are so many upsides to choosing summer for your big day and here’s why we at the Ice House and Crushed Ice Catering love summer weddings!

WEATHER: Yes, you take the risk of it being a bit hot, but chances are that the day will be warm and beautifully sunny. By choosing summer, you’ve just opened the door to a whole other group of venues that offer outdoor spaces. The options to do an outdoor cocktail hour, rooftop ceremony, or even a garden-party type reception are available. Not to mention the photos ops that are presented for an outdoor space. Which brings us to our next point…

Guests enjoy cocktail hour on a beautiful July evening at the rooftop garden.

PHOTOGRAPHY: Just think about the fun that your photographer could have being outside! Not only is the natural lighting a huge benefit, but day-of photo op locations are now endless. You don’t need to worry about taking off and putting on jackets, rosy cheeks, or goosebumps, but you can take advantage of the natural greenery, flowers and sunshine through the clouds. You’ll really appreciate the photos after it’s all said and done.

Photos at sunset create the perfect romantic lighting.

COLOR/DRESS: Fall and winter weddings limit themselves to a darker color palette. Although this could lead to a more “romantic” or upscale wedding, your options for bridesmaid dresses are limited. The decision of long versus short dresses may be made for you. Summer offers a huge selection of color options from linens, dresses, suits & ties, and flowers. Plus, flowers are in abundance and your florist will be excited to put together bouquets or centerpieces full of color to stand out and make an impact.

GUESTS: Most people usually save their vacation days for summer and have an easier time traveling during this time. If you’re expecting more guests to be available, generally summer is a better option.

COCKTAILS & FOOD: When it comes to picking out your food and bar menu, you really can’t go wrong in the summer. Foods and ingredients are their freshest and generally make everything tastier.  Caterers like Crushed Ice Catering and our Chef Lawrence Agnew take advantage of the freshest locally grown foods for a top notch meal. To top it all off, pick a signature cocktail that reflects the personality of you and your significant other. Your guests will surely appreciate a refreshing beverage unique to you!

Adding a signature Cocktail or champagne toast is a great and refreshing way to add a little something to your summer menu.

HONEYMOON: Now lets not forget about the honeymoon! Having a summer wedding gives you a good chance to schedule your honeymoon directly after the event. More destinations are available during the summer months and traveling back and forth is easier. However, since the weather is good locally, you don’t have to travel to a tropical location. You can have your honeymoon is a big city or out in the country based on your preference.

Bride and Groom leave for their honeymoon in style.

The Ice House could be the perfect summer wedding venue. From the rooftop garden to the terrace directly off of the main hall, we aren’t short on beautiful outdoor spaces. Our exclusive caterer, Crushed Ice Catering, provides the highest quality fresh food, and summer guarantees the best ingredients for you and your guests. On top of the awesome space and food available, during the month of July we offer a 20% discount for the venue pricing which means more flowers and fun for you! See, summer isn’t so bad after all!

 

Cheers!

Madeleine

Howard- Keathley Louisville Wedding

September 15, 2015 by icehouse Leave a Comment

Wedding Ceremony & Reception

The Howard- Keathley Louisville Wedding was hosted on our gorgeous Rooftop Garden, with a reception held in the Main Hall Package.

The Main Hall lit up with a natural glow from the market lights strung from the ceiling provided by Events LLC.

After their lovely ceremony overlooking downtown Louisville, their guests moved out to the East terrace for cocktails and passed appetizers. For cocktail hour- The Ice House provided the chalk board and art for her bar menu which sat directly next to the outside bar. Chalk art is such a great additive to any wedding decor.

The DIY bride made her own place cards and stands using wine corks. We love the multi-use of wine cork and wine bottle we have seen this wedding season! She also ordered personalized cuzies and thank you cards for each plate setting. These all-in-one details are a great way to show guest appreciation at your reception.

Willis- Konczal Rooftop Wedding

September 10, 2015 by icehouse Leave a Comment

We topped off our Labor Day weekend with the Willis- Konczal Rooftop Wedding!

Labor Day weekend is ideal for a wedding! The Rooftop Garden on the third level of The Ice House, which overlooks downtown Louisville and Slugger Field, served as the ceremony site for Allie & Josh. The bride and groom were glowing! Both shared their personally written vows, which touched everyone in the crowd who came to celebrate this wonderful couple.

Their photo wall was a huge hit with their crowd, many of which went to college at Ohio University with the bride & groom. The photo wall served as the perfect place to take a fun photo with friends and family outside on our East Terrace where cocktails were hosted following the ceremony.

We loved her handmade horseshoe favors which also served as her place cards. Cupcakes served as a great substitute for her wedding cake which were provided by Gigi’s Cupcakes.

What a beautiful day!

Cunningham- Winters Rooftop Wedding

August 28, 2015 by icehouse Leave a Comment

The Cunningham- Winters Rooftop Wedding took place on our third floor Rooftop Garden. It couldn’t have been a more beautiful August day to host a Louisville wedding!

Their wedding reception was hosted in the Main Hall Package with catering provided by Crushed Ice Catering. Their menu included a personalized Comfort Bar to meet the bride & groom’s tastes.

This wedding ceremony & reception was full of DIY decor. The crafty bride made all of her wedding centerpieces! We love it when our brides get crafty and give us an opportunity to help alleviate stress by allowing us to put together the essential details the day of the wedding.

Her color scheme included bright purple with yellow & white accents. She also added a touch of  gray included in her table runners. One of our favorite details was the gray linen she on her cake table to make the table a focal point in the room. Nothing tops the look-a-like bride & groom bobble heads on their cake table though!

Her Louisville vendors included:

Cake: Sweets by Morgan

Blue & Company: Rooftop Event

April 29, 2015 by icehouse Leave a Comment

Blue & Company kicked off Thunder in style with a Rooftop Event perfect for viewing the airshow and fireworks. This all-day event was held in the Main Hall Package which includes the Main Hall, Mezzanine balcony and East Terrace and the gorgeous Rooftop Garden.

Crushed Ice Events provided a crowd pleasing picnic style buffet, which included hamburgers with all of the toppings, hot dogs, corn on the cob, and pasta salad. A buffet was set-up inside the Main Hall and outside on the Rooftop Garden. With a crowd of 350 guests, seating was available inside for guests to get out of the heat and enjoy a bite to eat! Crushed Ice Events also provided a bar on the Rooftop Garden as well as the East Terrace. The outside bars are the most popular place to be on a gorgeous Spring day!

Guest lined up their folding chairs theater style facing the Ohio River to enjoy the airshow. This provided an ideal view of the planes as they circled downtown Louisville and the parachutes as they landed on the nearby Great Lawn. For the fireworks- guests lined up on the side of our sizable Rooftop Garden to view the show.

Our Rooftop Garden can accommodate up to 350-400 guests standing room including a buffet and bar option. Our Rooftop also has full A/V capabilities as well as a stage area for an entertainment.
