Quirky Archer Hotel Wedding

Quirky Archer Hotel Wedding

We cannot express just how much we LOVED working with Stevie and Sean on both flowers and coordination for their amazing and intimate wedding at the Lorien Hotel & Spa, now the Archer Hotel. From Stevie’s glittery gown to Sean’s kilt and hand knit kilt hose to the terrariums with golden dinosaurs, the wedding was a quirky site to see.

We often find ourselves paying attention to the bride’s attire, but Sean’s paid homage to his paternal family’s Irish heritage in his attire. His attire was almost entirely handmade- including Sean’s kilt hose which were hand knit by Stevie.

Their quirky sense of humor came through with Stevie’s “Handbook for the Recently Deceased” handbag, a nod to favorite movie, “Bettlejuice”. Their wedding at the Archer Hotel began with an intimate rooftop ceremony that included a ring warming ceremony. The diamonds in Stevie’s band came from her Nana’s wedding ring, after whom she is named.

Following the rooftop ceremony, guest moved indoors for a reception full of dancing and heartfelt toasts. A “Bridezilla” greeted guests at the escort card table and encouraged them to take home one of the unique living centerpieces. Bernard, the couple’s pet pig statue, attended the wedding as well – dressed appropriately of course.

And so we are even more excited to see the amazing fete featured on Capitol Romance!

Time is not a florist’s friend. From the time this ever so perishable product arrives to when we set things up in meager timelines while dodging people - not to mention waiting for others to finish their part before we can start ours… Let’s just say it’s a challenge, but one we meet head on each week with ingenuity. Planning, pre-planning and even more planning. It’s not always sexy but it gets the job done.
