Plan a Gorgeous Wedding Under a Tent

Event planner Ivy Robinson reimagines the tent as a grand salon, with polished floors, crystal chandeliers and garden roses galore

It’s a universal wedding truth: Make sure to have a plan B in place. As it happened, rain arrived the morning of the big day — but moving the wedding ceremony from the outside in was seamless — and stylish. 

A fresh-picked palette of pink, green and white paired with rustic woody tones was seasonally on-point for this springtime celebration. Here, a view of the fabulous tent from Party Reflections. Venue: The Inn at Crestwood.
