Every detail of Alex & Jon’s wedding felt like stepping into a classic love story—only with their own unique, playful twist. Set against the industrial-chic backdrop of Artifact Events, their celebration was a vibrant ode to nostalgia, brimming with vintage charm and an abundance of love. From the bold reds and pinks to quirky details like swans and foil heart balloons, Alex and Jon embraced every trope of romance and turned it into something delightfully personal.

A Day Rooted in Classic Romance

Alex and Jon’s wedding day was a tribute to everything they adore about love, storytelling, and each other. Inspired by a 70’s prom theme, the day was filled with sentimental nods and whimsical surprises. Reds and pinks reigned supreme, coloring everything from the decor to Alex’s heart-shaped bouquet—a standout detail that perfectly embodied the theme.

The couple began their day in style, arriving in a classic white trolley, a timeless choice that set the tone for the romance ahead. Their outfits were no less fitting for the occasion: Jon donned a bolo tie that added a touch of vintage flair, while Alex’s dress, with its old-Hollywood silhouette, radiated elegance. Together, they looked like they had stepped out of a bygone era, ready to create a love story of their own.

A Venue Transformed into a Nostalgic Dream

Artifact Events provided the perfect setting for their vision. The industrial yet warm space was transformed into a vintage wonderland, featuring playful, love-inspired details everywhere you looked. Tables were adorned with foil star table numbers, and swans—a classic symbol of love and devotion—appeared throughout the decor, tying into the theme beautifully. A vintage banner proudly displayed their new shared surname, a charming touch that added a personal stamp to the venue.

Guests were greeted by a towering champagne display, a glamorous and interactive way to toast the happy couple. The centerpiece of the reception was a stunning three-tiered vintage-style cake, adorned with a cake topper that perfectly captured Alex and Jon’s sense of humor and creativity: a hot dog bride and groom, a cheeky nod that had everyone smiling.

A Celebration Filled with Personality

Every element of Alex and Jon’s day reflected their unique personalities and shared love for the quirky and the nostalgic. Guests were treated to PEZ dispensers as favors, a whimsical and unexpected detail that added a playful pop of color to the tables. And of course, their beloved chihuahua wasn’t left out—homages to their tiny furry family member were lovingly woven throughout the celebration.

The vintage vibes didn’t stop at the decor. Much of the wedding day was captured on film photography, adding to the warm, nostalgic feel of the occasion. The grainy, timeless quality of the photos perfectly complemented the day’s aesthetic, ensuring that every moment looked like it belonged in a vintage photo album.

Alex and Jon’s wedding day was a masterclass in how to blend vintage charm, playful kitsch, and deep personal meaning.
