Rustic Disco at 71 West: A Wedding That Broke All the Rules—in the Best Way

Ella & Caleb’s wedding at 71 West was the ultimate mashup: Rustic Disco. Yes, really. Think leather meets mirrorball, warm neutrals dancing with metallic shine. ROAM Rentals leaned into the unexpected, curating a collection that felt playful, polished, and completely personal.

A Blank Canvas with Big Potential

71 West is known for its wide-open layout—an ideal foundation for bold ideas. With no pre-existing architectural anchors, the design had full permission to take center stage. And it did. Every piece we brought in played a role in shaping the vibe without overpowering it.

Mixing Vibes: Leather + Shine

To pull off a concept as funky as Rustic Disco without veering into kitsch, we focused on balance. Rich leather textures added warmth and grounding, while metallic elements—from mirrored accents to sleek hardware—brought the sparkle. It was a study in contrasts, and it worked.

Planner Tip: Contrast Creates Chemistry

If you’re toying with a high-low concept, don’t be afraid to lean into the tension. Contrast makes a space feel dynamic. The trick is to keep your color palette tight and let a few materials carry the weight of the story.

Why It Worked

This wedding didn’t try to fight the venue—it amplified it. The design didn’t just fill the space; it transformed it into something memorable, modern, and deeply reflective of the couple.
