How the night ran
How did Casen and Lyla’s wedding night run?
New Year’s Eve, booked in July. A DJ and MC from 5 pm, for five hours. A conga line, a backflip and a dance sitting on the floor.

What they wanted
Casen and Lyla booked Elevate on 25 July 2025 for their wedding on New Year’s Eve, Wednesday 31 December. The reception was in Southern Charm Estate’s white hall in Mount Vernon, under greenery garlands, string lights and a chandelier of hanging white flowers.

How the night ran
The couple walked in through a tunnel of raised arms, then danced their first dance under the chandelier while guests at the head table filmed on their phones. Ten minutes later the bride was dancing in a ring of bridesmaids in emerald velvet, with guests packed around the floor.

How it turned out
Later frames show the couple in a conga line and a guest mid-backflip in a ring of cheering guests, the groom among them. Then the bride and her bridesmaids sat down in a row on the floor for a group dance, friends seated facing them.
