"Since the couple has studied abroad, the designer decided to break away from traditional wedding elements commonly seen in China and create a unique, conceptual wedding scene. By incorporating monumental architectural features to emphasize visual impact, the final design presents a fashion show-style wedding inspired by desert imagery, with a strong modern art aesthetic." "Given the expansive space of both the indoor and outdoor banquet halls, each exceeding 2,000 square meters, the design boldly opts for a ceiling-free concept, maximizing the primary visual impact. With groundbreaking visual art and concepts, the design thoughtfully reflects the couple's taste and needs, creating a new style that blends scenic art with human emotion. The entire setting is unified by the elegant autumnal Mélade color palette. Minimalist lines accentuate the scenic design, highlighting the sophisticated quality of modern art aesthetics. It evokes the futuristic world of the timeless science fiction novel Dune. The tall, minimalist structures stand in the center of the banquet hall, resembling symbols from an extraterrestrial civilization. These monumental forms gradually ascend through a series of steps, leading the eye to the farthest point, creating a sacred and solemn artistic atmosphere." This case positioned the wedding in a "high-end" style, interpreting the design concept of professionalism, creativity, and service-oriented integration. "Our scene needed to be built within 48 hours. The fountain in the center was designed to be around five meters tall to create the desired interplay of light and water reflections, which made the execution extremely challenging, with high waterproofing requirements. The outer putty seams had to be assembled and coated in a very short time, adding to the difficulty. Behind each pillar of the main backdrop, a violinist emerged one by one, guided by the rhythm of the music and the lighting cues, making the precise lighting execution crucial. This was a significant time challenge for our team." Nevertheless, through everyone's efforts, a satisfactory scene effect was ultimately presented.
