Black Tie New Year’s Eve Wedding

Black Tie New Year’s Eve Wedding

Can you imagine ringing in the new year with with all of your loved ones? Ilana and Sarah knew they wanted a winter wedding, and as discussion circled around the date, the realized everyone would love a new year’s eve wedding celebration! Their gorgeous black tie fête simply oozed with winter glam. Working off their love of metallics and the New Year’s theme, they opted for a classic gold and ivory color palette.

With a palette of classic whites and festive metallic touches, the wedding embraced a spare winter aesthetic of branches, snowy touches, and warm candlelight hues.  The two brides carried distinct bouquets – Ilana’s a more classic bouquet of roses, ranunculus and gardenia and Sarah’s a dramatic, modern bouquet constructed from ivory rose petals.

The chuppah was constructed from birch poles overlaid with curly willow branches, accented with hanging votives, and seated in urns filled with wispy baby’s breath.  In one of our favorite moments from the ceremony, the brides were showered with festive glitter as their recessed back down the aisle.  Gold and silver party horns served as escort cards, and the reception featured two festive and wintry table designs, while hundreds of hanging votives were suspended above the dance floor. Honoring the “countdown” to midnight, a vintage clock served as the stand for the table number.

Love in full bloom - rain and all ☔️ ✨

Tamari & Zach embraced the romance of a rainy day ceremony at the historic Tudor Place, saying “I do” beneath clear umbrellas. Then they celebrated in the cozy, intimate setting of the Tabard Inn - with a warm floral palette of corals and oranges, the dreamiest Cafe au Lait dahlias, and proof that a little rain only adds to the magic.

G is for greenery 🌿, L is for lush ✨… you get the idea!

When it comes to statement-making florals, a well-placed garland can do it all—elevate long tables, frame a ceremony aisle, or even drape around a fountain for that effortlessly chic look. Who said greenery was just filler? 💅

Industrial spaces have a beauty of their own, but the right floral design can take them from warehouse to urban garden. 🌿✨

For Laura & Michael’s Dock 5 wedding, we played with scale—tall magnolia branches to emphasize the height, lush florals to soften the space, and candlelight to add warmth. The result? An urban oasis that felt both grand and intimate.

1️⃣Go Big with Greenery – Tall magnolia branches brought height and movement to Laura & Michael’s Dock 5 wedding

2️⃣ Mix Textures – Lush, low floral arrangements softened the industrial edges while keeping the space dynamic

3️⃣ Layer Candlelight – Warm glows + metal details = a romantic urban oasis

4️⃣ Frame Key Spaces – A floral garland on the head table grounded the design and added intimacy. Trees flanking the table took it to the next level

5️⃣ Contrast is Key – Pairing the raw, industrial elements with soft florals and organic details created the perfect balance
