The Crystal Ballroom's Crystal Chandeliers

Ben Lomond Suites' crystal chandeliers were installed in 1927 and still twinkle in the Crystal Ballroom.

The chandeliers are over 5 feet tall and sparkle with thousands of crystals.

These photos were taken by Kristy Bate while she was helping with events at the hotel.

Wedding Cupcakes instead of Wedding Cakes

Wedding cupcakes are a cute and simple alternative to the classic wedding cake for a modern bride. Wedding cupcakes can be displayed beautifully in cupcake trees. Brides can choose a greater variety of flavors than with a classic wedding cake and there is no mess from cutting a large cake.

Wedding Reception with Candy Buffet

The bride's choice of colors looked beautiful in the Crystal Ballroom.

A pretty display all set for the arrival of the wedding cake.

The bride's trousseau and family photos were on display for the wedding reception guests to enjoy.

The circular buffet will help ease and direct the flow of guests through the buffet line.

Ogden's Venue for Banquets and Events Since 1927

This is a great photo of a banquet held in the Sunlit Room before the hotel's 1980s renovation. At the time of this photo the room was called the Oak Room. 

The photo above is what the Sunlit Room looks like now. If you compare the two photos you can see the changes that took place during the 1980s renovation of the hotel. The brick was plastered over, the upper balconies replaced with windows, the lower doors to the hotel's dining room were replaced with windows and the ornate decorations above those doors were removed. I find the type of curtains that were originally in the Sunlit Room very interesting. I wish that we still had the decorative grates that covered the vents on both sides of the fire place in the earlier photo.

Weber State Graduation Party, Ogden, Utah

Weber State had a graduation party in the Grandview Party room this week. We love the Weber State pride with the purple chair sashes.

You have to love a simple center piece. To recreate this center piece just arrange an empty wine bottle, a couple silk flowers, glass pebbles and a string of gold bead on a piece of cut glass. It adds a punch of color without much effort.

Hot Air Balloon Themed Wedding in Ogden, Utah

We hosted the cutest hot air balloon themed wedding reception in April 2013. The couple got married in a hot air balloon and then decorated their wedding reception with balloons dressed up as hot air balloons.

The hot air balloon center pieces were created by placing a loose mesh, made of ribbon, over a helium balloon and tying the ribbon to the flower basket below.

The bride and groom customized the Grandview Party Room by bringing in a white window backdrop. This bride and groom borrowed the backdrop from a friend, but backdrops like this can be rented from party supply rental companies.
