A Persian Wedding at the Hawthorne Hotel

We received this lovely thank you email, which is regarding the following wedding story:

Hi Kelly,

Thanks for your e-mail and your well wishes. The wedding went amazingly well. Liz was incredible. Although we had some last minute changes, delays, problems with our dresses, a brand new groomsman, etc..... she handled it like it's what happens every time and it's nothing out of the ordinary. On top of that she managed to keep me calm as well. Your entire staff was remarkable and the food, wow !!!! I just can't say enough about how wonderful and overly accommodating every single person at Hawthorne was. Please feel free to post this and any pictures you took on your web site. We will send a real thank you note once our thank you cards are printed.

Thanks again, Farah and Bob”


Here is the link to our Hawthorne Hotel blog page that has many photographs of a Persian Wedding Ceremony.

We found this such a delight, that we felt like sharing this post with more than just our wedding constituency.

I hope you will take a moment to look at this.

Unusual Wedding Details

Several weeks ago we hosted a wedding that had some unusual details attendant to it. We thought you might like a look at those details:


A special drink, created by the couple getting married, in honor of their little dog -- how cute is that!


Click on this image to see how they used the different aspects of a relationship to name the courses of the meal. This was also a very creative touch that we had not seen before.

Instead of a basket for gift cards, the couple created a house, in the hopes that the checks and cash they might receive in greeting cards would help them achieve their goal of putting the down payment on a house. Again, this was something we had never seen before, and we thought it was unique.

I hope you enjoy seeing how someone else handled the details of their wedding.
