Colorful pink and red wedding design at historic Kohl Mansion by L’Relyea Events
When our bride first reached out, she dreamed of a day that felt as joyful and full of life as her and her partner’s love — a celebration bursting with vibrant color, laughter, and a hint of whimsy.
She envisioned bright pops of bubblegum pink and candy apple red against the stately architecture of Kohl Mansion — a bold, playful pairing that brought this historic venue to life in a completely new way.
It was our first time designing at Kohl Mansion, but stepping into a new space with fresh eyes has always been one of our favorite challenges. With years of experience creating elevated celebrations at private estates and diverse venues, we felt confident this one would be no exception — and it wasn’t.
Our bride trusted us with her colorful vision, and together we created something truly unforgettable: a perfect blend of heritage and fun, where architectural elegance met modern vibrancy.
From the bubblegum-pink florals to the candy-apple-red accents in the tablescapes and stationery, every detail was designed to spark joy. Guests were surrounded by playful sophistication — a wedding that was equal parts timeless and unapologetically fun.
A Celebration of Joyful Color
Inside the grand halls of Kohl Mansion, we paired the venue’s classic architectural details with unexpected, cheerful tones — creating a visual experience that felt like modern art meets romantic tradition.
Soft blush linens contrasted with vivid floral arrangements, while contemporary touches like sleek signage and minimalistic rentals kept the design feeling fresh and refined. The result? A vibrant yet sophisticated atmosphere that perfectly reflected our couple’s personality.
