Come Together: Yin-Yang Design Pairs Luxe Textures and Patterns, Hyper-Seasonal Blooms and Modern Edge at Parties on the Terrace

Amid the lush grounds of Parties on the Terrace in Redmond, a dreamy scene came together in a display of luxe textures and patterns. The unique ceremony space set the tone for a wedding day that prioritized connection over convention, eschewing popular trends in favor of something intentional and personal. In lieu of a central aisle, the couple entered from each side of the space to meet in the middle, representing their union while eliminating the concept of “chosen sides.” Crafting an intimate feel, the bountiful altar was framed by two cream-colored lounge sofas, followed by rows of black chairs, bringing a modern edge to an otherwise verdant ambiance.

Blooms burst forth from a yin-yang-inspired serpentine table design, embracing the idea of complementary forces coming together to create a greater whole. “Serpentine tables have grown in popularity,” says Lacey Larsen, owner of Seattle-based Evergreen Weddings, which helped to dream up the concept. “But we wanted to push the boundaries by doing something more than just a singular line.” Rich, hyper-seasonal blooms of ranunculus, ninebark, flowering Dogwood and elegant martagon lilies brought depth, with moody mauve and burgundy balancing the color scheme, offset by stark ivory petals. Woven placemats, pastel taper candles and abstract napkins softened the tablescape, while black-rimmed glass plates and striped linens provided a geometric pop.

The couple’s attire embodied the overall juxtaposition—the bride’s gown featured delicate floral lace with a sheer corset, while the groom donned a classic tan suit coat contrasted sharply with black lapels and detailing. “Styled with a moody, yet romantic palette, the design served as a backdrop for a story about partnership, intimacy and doing what is most reflective of ‘you’ as a couple,” Larsen says.
