A Romantic Winter Soirée at the Westin Great Southern Columbus
Callie & Brant
When Callie and Brant envisioned their wedding day, they leaned into the magic of winter—creating an elegant evening celebration filled with candlelight, timeless details, and classic downtown charm at the historic The Westin Great Southern Columbus.
With planning and design led by Nina Marie Weddings, the couple transformed the grand ballroom into a romantic winter setting layered with warm textures, lush florals, and sophisticated décor. The vision blended refined elegance with a celebratory atmosphere that kept guests on the dance floor all night long.
Callie was the picture of timeless bridal style in a gown from La Jeune Mariee Bridal Collection. Her look was beautifully complemented by soft, polished beauty styling from hair artist Erika Taft and makeup artist Sarah Gibson.
The day’s romantic aesthetic came to life through lush floral design by Vessel Floral & Event Design, paired with elegant draping from Serendipity Designs and refined rentals from Event Source. A custom seating display by Grace K Designs welcomed guests into the celebration, while beautifully designed invitations from Paper Occasions set the tone long before the big day arrived.
Capturing every heartfelt moment was photographer Laura Witherow, whose images documented the joy, romance, and vibrant celebration throughout the evening, while Columbus Wedding Videos preserved the day on film.
Guests were treated to a stunning confection from The Flour Pot Cakes before the celebration continued with an unforgettable night of music. Entertainment featured both a DJ from Buckeye Entertainment and live music from Steve Banks Music, creating an energetic atmosphere that carried the party late into the evening.
From its candlelit ambiance to its lively dance floor, Callie and Brant’s winter wedding was a perfect blend of elegance, warmth, and celebration—an unforgettable soirée in the heart of downtown Columbus.
