How the night ran
How did Audrey and Abbas’s wedding night run?
A string quartet, eighteen uplights and a Selfie Mirror. Rain moved everything inside. In Audrey’s survey: the check-ins and the quartet.

What they wanted
Audrey and Abbas booked Elevate on 18 January 2025, nine months to the day before their wedding. The ceremony was held in the Chapel at Integrity Hills, under stained glass and candle chandeliers.

How the night ran
Stefan wrote in his report after the wedding that rain moved everything inside, and that it worked out great. This frame catches the two of them mid-lift, the floor to themselves, under the greenery and orange garlands.

How it turned out
In Elevate’s private client survey, Audrey called the quartet amazing and named the check-ins and the questionnaire as the favorite thing. Three of the answers follow, word for word. In this frame, they hug while friends crowd in around them on the dance floor.
