A Grand Winter Soirée of Opulence at The Bellevue Conference & Event Center

Afshaw and Abe celebrated their magical winter wedding in December at the breathtaking Bellevue Conference & Event Center, where a dazzling palette of purple hues and crystal accents transformed the ballroom into a romantic wonderland.

The grand ballroom glowed beneath magnificent chandeliers, their light reflecting off mirrored surfaces and ornate white columns. Dream Eventz designed a setting that balanced classic elegance with modern flair, while Viva La Fiesta Planit coordinated every detail to perfection, ensuring the celebration flowed seamlessly from ceremony to reception. Dramatic violet lighting filled the space with an air of opulence and warmth.

A sweeping staircase adorned with pink and white florals became the stage for the couple’s grand entrance, where an energetic dabke performance ignited the celebration and filled the room with music, rhythm, and joy. Their happiness radiated through every moment, from tender glances to exuberant dancing. Guests dined on an exquisite menu by Bamian Afghan Cuisine, followed by a stunning multi-tiered cake detailed with scalloped fondant and a personalized topper. Every element reflected Afshaw and Abe’s vision of timeless elegance elevated by heartfelt cultural tradition.
