This is how the planner put together the vow renewal:

On May 24th, a day that marked a decade of love and commitment, Alex and Viviane Okorie celebrated their 10-year wedding renewal at the exquisite Bellevue Conference and Event Center in Chantilly, VA. This milestone was not just a mere celebration; it was a heartfelt tribute to their incredible journey together, a testament to their unwavering dedication, hard work, and the beautiful life they have built as partners and parents to their four precious daughters.

From humble beginnings, Alex and Viviane’s love story is one that resonates deeply. They have faced challenges and triumphed together, and on this special occasion, the air was thick with the palpable energy of their bond. The event was infused with an overwhelming sense of love and unity, allowing guests to feel the power of their connection in every detail.

A perfect ambiance for ‘I still do’

To complement their story, we carefully curated a team of top-tier vendors who shared the couple’s appreciation for quality and elegance. Each vendor went above and beyond to ensure that the celebration reflected Alex and Viviane’s refined taste and unique love story.

The décor was nothing short of a showstopper. Embracing an elegant ivory and white color scheme, we opted for statement centerpieces that captured the eye against the backdrop of the venue’s soaring ceilings. Two majestic 10-foot trees added fullness, while four estate tables with chandelier centerpieces bridged with flowers brought both dimension and variety to the space. To further enhance the atmosphere, we added four 5-foot tall trees, creating a striking visual experience. The backdrop was a masterpiece, featuring a modern panel design adorned with LED lights and floral arrangements that left guests in awe.

Time to renew those heartfelt vows 😍

Culinary excellence was a highlight of the evening, as the menu showcased a delightful African fusion that celebrated the couple’s heritage with a modern twist. Each dish, from cocktail hour to dinner, was a testament to richness and flavor, beautifully presented and crafted with meticulous attention to detail. Guests were thrilled to take home a taste of the feast, thanks to thoughtfully provided take-home boxes. The wedding cake was a stunning centerpiece itself, and the late-night snacks, including Nutella crepes, were a hit, elevating the experience even further. The catering team truly set a new standard for wedding cuisine, leaving every guest raving about the exceptional quality.

Fashion played a significant role in this celebration, with Alex and Viviane showcasing stunning custom pieces that turned heads. The bride radiated beauty in her white dress and her striking gold traditional outfit. She later wowed guests in a show-stopping party fringe dress, perfectly embodying the spirit of celebration. The groom made a bold statement in custom attire and traditional wear that complemented the occasion beautifully. Each look was a reflection of their style and love, fitting them perfectly as they celebrated their journey together.

Let’s take in the beauty of the breathtaking reception decor 😍

A big shoutout goes to the beauty team for ensuring Viviane looked radiant throughout the day, as well as the audio and entertainment vendors who brought the celebration to life, going above and beyond to keep the energy high and the dance floor alive.

A special mention is due to the media team, who flawlessly captured the essence of the event, preserving memories that will be cherished for years to come.
