Music-Themed Wedding Inspiration from The Jam Event

The Jam Event

When it comes to the things we love here at GWS, it’s weddings (obvs) followed pret-ty closely by music. (In case you were wondering peonies, donuts + puppies are high on the list, too!) So, when this fun, music festival-themed shindig called The Jam Event, hosted by Wild Heart Events, hit our inbox, it took only mere seconds to decide that we had to share it with you guys on the site!

All the top music festivals (Burning Man, Riot Fest, Stagecoach, Coachella, Woodstock…) were represented in these creative styled tablescapes + vignettes you’re about to see. This collaborative event combined the inventories and unique minds of dozens of wedding vendors and is truly one for the books! If you’re a couple who loves music, or maybe – just maybe – you met at a music festival, be sure to take in all the inspiration to come…

Jaime of Wild Heart Events tells us, The Jam Event was not a ‘for profit’ event, we raised over $300 for Brides Against Breast Cancer. My goal in hosting this event was to thank everyone for a successful year, kick of the 2015 season, and show off a new level of creativity. The Goodland Hotel & El Capitan Canyon provided deals on accommodations, while Bills Bus transported guests and Blue Star Parking provided valet for over 130 cars.

First up, we had to share the scene styled after the ULTIMATE music festival, Woodstock. Jaime says, In the tropical greenhouse, Sweet Emilia Jane brought on the Peace and Love with her Woodstock-themed table and lounge, with details from Elan Event RentalsBorrowed Blu and Scout Rental Co., complete with a floral stuffed guitar and giant dream catchers!

The Riot Fest table, designed by Coco Rose, featured the most unique hot pink + silver palette. Roses srsly may never have looked better…

The Coachella table felt like a desert oasis, making the theme a fun nod to the festival’s location. Loving the mismatched seating + suspended foliage, Ella & Louie!

We love the simple, but ultra cool vibe of the Burning Man table, created by Tenley Erin Young. Brass tones, wood textures + industrial details really fit together perfectly, don’t you think?
