Charles and Leah’s Rocker Rehearsal Dinner at Sambuca, Designed and Planned by Elliott Events
Monday, November 12, 2012
Leah hired Tiffanie, owner and lead planner for Elliott Events, to plan her October 2012. As she planned Leah's wedding, Tiffanie discovered that Leah wanted to host a rehearsal dinner at Sambuca Restaurant that her fiance Charles would enjoy. It was important to Leah that the dinner be something that Charles would love, since their wedding style was feminine and all about bling.
What Tiffanie knew about Charles was that he loved all things Harley Davidson, rocker-style, chains and leather. And, while her wedding style was bling and glam, Leah also loved the rocker culture. With her only request being something Charles would love, Leah gave Tiffanie full reign to create a rehearsal dinner that Charles would love.
Tiffanie scoured the Internet and no design ideas stood out. Then it hit her, Love Rocks would be their theme! She visited Graceful Tables who recommended a perfect black and red linen that was perfect for the theme. She drew inspiration from the linen pattern, the rocker elements and created a killer evening just for Charles.

Sambuca is already a stunning downtown location, with an enviable view of Nashville's skyline. With a well-selected venue as her foundation, Tiffanie added her "Love Rock" design which consised of these key design elements: fun menu cards, big candelebras, spiked vases and flowers. The event really fit the couple, who both wore leather jackets and dressed for occasion.
Great food, an intimate guest list of 30, cool dinner design and an incredible view all combined to make the event a night for all to remember.
