A timeless black and white dream. From the moment guests were greeted by the champagne wall to the warm, romantic glow of a candlelit reception, every second felt like magic.
We had a great vendor team to pull it all together!

Easily one of our favorites from 2025! Maren brought a level of creativity and unique vision to her day that we’ve truly never seen before. Once we found out she was an interior designer, it all clicked—every detail felt intentional, elevated, and completely timeless.
A few of the moments that stole our hearts:
🎨 The Design: A bold mix of colors and patterns that perfectly complemented the wood tones of the West Hall.
🍰 The Innovation: #CakeCenterpieces and a “Cake Map”—the most genius way to get guests up and mingling!
✍️ The Personal Touch: Maren hand-drew an illustration of our organ for custom guest stickers, plus a heart-melting sketch of her dress alongside her mom and grandma’s gowns. 🥹
💌 The Connection: The couple wrote a personalized letter to every single guest. Talk about a thoughtful touch!
It truly felt like stepping into the pages of a magazine. We are so honored to have been part of this magic! Cheers to a lifetime of beauty, Maren & Tyler. 🥂

This #ValentinesWedding was the perfect blend of simple + stunning 🤍✨ Black and white details, stemless roses, and baby’s breath throughout created such a timeless look—and that head table backdrop?! Absolutely beautiful. @foreverblackbox knocked it out of the park as always with décor and coordination!
• @puresonicpro is one of our FAVORITES to have in the building! Their light & airy style fits Olde Wicks perfectly—and getting a first look the very next day?! Yes please!📸
• Their custom newspapers were such a fun, personal touch📰
• The pups stopping by for photos… so adorable 🐾
• Morgan gifting her bouquet to her mom—cue the tears 🥹
• @ahnerflorist created the most beautiful florals🌹
• And Daryl with @deluxe_djs_ent kept the energy going all night long—both before dinner and out on the dance floor 🎶
Morgan & Keith are the sweetest, most easygoing couple—and fun fact, they’re also one of our Sip & Shop vendors, so we got to see them again just a month later!
Thank you both for choosing Olde Wicks to celebrate your big day—we can’t wait to have you back again soon 🫶
We’re so excited to welcome Highland Highschool Prom to The Olde Wicks Factory on Saturday!

One of the most unique, beautiful, and fun weddings we’ve ever had! Every detail was carefully thought out and honestly unlike anything we’ve seen at the factory before. What started as a #SundayFundayWedding evolved into this beautiful #AventGarden themed brunch wedding. Here are some of the most unique aspects of the day!
•The brides had not 1 but 3️⃣ gorgeous outfit changes!
•Before the ceremony took place, they joined their guests in the gatsby room for @fooddudes FABULOUS Brunch & a bread spread.🥖
•This is where we found one of the best coffee vendors around @beansproutcoffeeco ! They also had fun mugs and used our donut wall to display them.☕️
•They set the ceremony up in a circle with the middle open and they each walked in opposite doors where they met in the middle💛
•Guests wore fun florals to go with the theme!
•They’re huge #Swifties and incorporated a lot of elements of the day with her in it!
•During the ceremony, they passed around a string as a symbol of their shared lives and how their relationship has tied everyone together. During this, their niece sang “Invisible String” by @taylorswift .
• @emmybeephotog got some amazing shots!
• @hareandbearco created beautiful floral pieces that are locally sourced & environmentally sustainable 😍
• @314quartet sounded amazing! 🎻
Thanks for showing us how fun a Sunday wedding truly can be!!
