”I chose to use crystals because Superman’s Fortress of Solitude is full of crystals. Crystals were incorporated on the guest table, sweetheart table, on the lounge area end table, on the cake table, on the ceremony altar, and on the ceremony aisle candelabras. The hexagon shape throughout the design was chosen because in my planning stages I ran into someone’s artwork online of Superman’s Fortress of Solitude and some of the tops of the fortress crystals were shaped as hexagons. Hence, the hexagonal ceremony altar, the hexagon shaped menu, the seating chart with hexagons, and the votive candle holders in the bar area that had hexagon shaped tops. I also used diamonds in the shape of squares in the design for the mirrors on the sweetheart table, guest table, cake table, and on the lounge area ottoman. This is because Superman’s logo is diamond shaped. To represent Clark Kent as a reporter, I used an antique typewriter for the welcome table that displayed a message to guests from Diana and Clark. To represent Kal-El, I chose to name his signature drink Kryptonite. Of course, the drink would be green and that is why I used green letters for this drink on the signature drink display.
To represent Wonder Woman, I used lassos throughout the design. These lassos were on the sweetheart table, guest table, welcome table on the antique typewriter, tied around the three belly bars in the bar area, and tied on five places for the cake backdrop. I did use two different colored lassos. The cake had five bright gold lassos because Wonder Woman’s lasso of truth turns bright gold when being used on someone. The other lassos were a dull gold because Wonder Woman’s lasso of truth isn’t bright when it’s not being used. To also represent Wonder Woman, I folded the napkins in the shape of a sword and placed them inside of a gold ring holder to help give it the sword look. I did this because she uses a sword when she fights. To represent Diana, Princess of Themyscira, I chose to name her signature drink Paradise Island since Themyscira has also been known as Paradise Island. The drink would be red because I also thought about red Kryptonite which is associated with Kal-El. This is why I used red letters for this drink on the signature drink display.”
