Glamorous Wedding Overlooking Atlanta City Line

COVID-19 couldn’t stop these lovebirds.

With the pandemic looming, Nadia and Larry decided to proceed, with caution of course, with their wedding as planned, and it was truly a wonderful occasion for all.

The couple knew that they wanted to have an all white and gold wedding celebration, but with Nadia being the grand Jersey Girl that she is, she wanted to place a large emphasis on the gold. That’s when they brought in MunaCoterie member and wedding planner/designer extraordinaire, Russell Wendell to bring their vision to life. Russell shares,

I wanted to make sure that I nailed Nadia and Larry’s vision perfectly. They wanted a wedding experience that wasn’t the typical white and gold wedding. They wanted a bold presence of gold in their design. And while they desired some extra glitz and glamour, they wanted to maintain an aesthetic that was sophisticated with a contemporary flare. I think that we achieved their desires with the design.

As you will see, Russell did not disappoint.

He designed Nadia’s stylish and relaxing bridal suite, featuring an ivory couch, and an array of lush florals that included white roses and gold palms. He even gave the groom his own stylish suite, featuring dark black drapes, black-cushioned, and gold chiavari chairs.

With Nadia being a wardrobe stylist, it was an absolute guarantee that the fashion for the wedding party was going to be on point. Drawing inspiration from the movie, Sex in the City, each of the 3 bridesmaids wore a custom couture gown created by Nate Hutson Collection in the colors black, red and blue. Nadia decided to go with a beautiful, bespoke Winnie Couture gown. Embellished with crystals and featuring a ruffled train, Nadia’s dress was a show stopper.

The ceremony and reception took place in the Sky Room at the Crowne Plaza Midtown Atlanta, which provided beautiful skyline views of the city’s skyline. The hotel’s ballroom was completely transformed with the installation of plush white carpet and satin white drapes, creating the perfect backdrop for the occasion.

The emotional ceremony was filled with touching moments, from their precious four legged baby, Bentley, making his way down the aisle, to their beautifully-crafted, personal vows. After being introduced as Mr. and Mrs Hosch, the couple grooved to Beyoncé and Jay’s “On The Run” as they exited the ceremony and prepared for the epic party that would be their reception.

The cake, brought to life by A Pinch Bakery, made a huge statement at was placed under the ceremony arch. With Nadia and Larry having been together for 10 years and the wedding date being October 10th, 10/10, we decided to have a tier of the cake in the shape of a decagon.

With the reception all set, the wedding party made their entrance, followed by Larry and Nadia, who made a wardrobe change into more flexible fashions that allowed them to get down on the dance floor. As the guests dined on their multi-course meal, DJ Twice set the tone with some smooth r&b tunes. After dinner, DJ Twice quickly amplified the atmosphere with a mixture of New York and southern hip hop classics, getting everyone on the floor as they danced the night away.

“Russell truly brought our vision to life. Our wedding was perfect. We would not have wanted any other way.”
Mr. & Mrs. Hosch

How did you meet?

Through an acquaintance at the art institute of Atl.

Tell us about the proposal.

It was a surprise at the battery Atlanta where all of my family and friends were in a room full of candles with Larry on 1 knee.

Describe your wedding style.

As a stylist, I wanted a high fashion wedding. My gown was a custom Winnie Couture dress and custom jumpsuit by Nate Hutson Collection.
Larry wore a custom tuxedo by Ellis Esq.
The wedding shopping experience was a pretty cool experience. I didn’t love anything that I saw in the stores so I found two dresses that I like and kind of merge them into one.

Did you incorporate any culture into your wedding?

My family is from New Jersey and Larry’s family is from North Carolina. Therefore, it was kind of like a North meet South experience. We had a lot of Jersey/New York music in the reception while dining on tasty southern cuisine.
