Sarah and Gian’s wedding was a celebration like no other. With a “go big or go home” attitude, the bride, who loves maximalist design, wanted the decor to be bright and eye-catching. Instead of a traditional wedding, they envisioned a day that felt more like a big, fun party. Their “tropical disco” theme became a stunning reality at their disco Millwick wedding, featuring a bold color palette, tropical touches, and sparkles everywhere!
Blending organic and industrial elements, the couple chose the perfect venue to bring their theme to life. Their outdoor ceremony set a fun and lively tone with a unique altar—a round arch adorned with silver streamers and vibrant flowers. For the reception, they went all out, featuring tables with bold, colorful arrangements and plenty of disco installations to signal the party was just getting started.
When you think mixing two completely different styles won’t work, this celebration proves otherwise. If you’re searching for ideas to add fun and personal touches to your own event, look no further! Every detail of their special day was masterfully executed, and The Shalom Initiative captured it all in stunning detail.

The Inspiration Behind This Maximalist Tropical Disco Millwick Wedding
When we first talked to our wedding planner, “tropical disco” was one of my original descriptors for our wedding vision. I also love maximalist design, so I wanted the decor to be really bright and in-your-face. We also wanted the whole day to be more like a big party than a traditional wedding, which drove many bold color choices and sparkly accents.
