Big Fat Fake Wedding | The Not Wedding | Kimpton Sawyer Hotel | Sacramento WeddingsWe were thrilled to participate in a one-of-a-kind wedding experience, The Big Fake Wedding, at the Kimpton Sawyer Hotel last month. Did you miss it? If so, don’t fret my pet, we’ve got the event recap for you right here.

The Big Fake Wedding is a bridal show alternative in the form of a big, fake wedding. The Sacramento event was inspired by Pantone’s 2019 Color of the Year “Living Coral.”

The show producer says, “We challenged our vendors to use the energizing colors found in nature to wow our guests. Think of it as a modern take on land, sky, and sea. Spoiler alert: they killed it. Between the balloon installation, rose gold dress and the blown sugar glass cakes, we couldn’t possibly pick a favorite detail. If Pantone had a Color of the Year party, this would be it.”
