Gatsby Inspired Omni Wedding

Gatsby Inspired Omni Wedding

The Omni’s garden is a truly beautiful space for a wedding ceremony made even more gorgeous when the weather is perfect.  This elegant fall wedding was inspired by the luxe style of the 1920’s and The Great Gatsby. Shades of burgundy, eggplant, champagne and sage green were used throughout the flowers.  Accents of pearls and gold added to the theme.

The bride’s bouquet featured eggplant calla lilies, Black Magic roses, burgundy dahlias, accented with champagne toned roses and seeded eucalyptus. Large pearl pins finished with bouquet and kept with the theme. For the bridesmaids, a bit of cream colored stock was added to the mix to give theirs an overall lighter feel.

The ceremony featured a simple chuppah erected in front of the Omni’s classic gazebo. Elegant posies of dahlias, roses and stock in shades of cream, champagne and burgundy accented with seeded eucalyptus draped from the top front corners of the structure.

The table centerpieces featured a striking mix of high and low styles, with the tall centerpieces adding antique green hydrangea to the mix of burgundy, eggplant and champagne roses and dahlias. Pearls were draped elegantly around the base of the flowers to add to the 1920’s theme. Low centerpieces in gold gold containers finished the dramatic look. A can’t miss? That cake from Fancy Cakes by Leslie. Just completes the look of the day!

December has been a whirlwind. Weddings. Holiday parties. Installing holiday décor around town. The kind of month where the days blur and the studio never quite sleeps.

But one of the most meaningful moments has come through our involvement with Wish Upon a Wedding, an organization that grants weddings and vow renewals to couples facing serious illness or life-altering circumstances.

At the Citizen Ballroom, we helped bring Tiffianni & Minerva’s vow renewal to life. Their vision was unapologetically floral. A sweeping staircase installation layered in greenery. Flowers in saturated shades of fuchsia and purple. A lush deconstructed floral arch that framed their vows and later their sweetheart table. Tables glowed with flowers, candles, and lamps. The temperature may have been in the teens outside but inside was only warmth and light rooted in love. 

We began this year donating flowers to laid-off federal employees and end it celebrating Tiffianni & Minerva. Because this year hasn’t just been about decorating spaces. It’s about lifting spirits with flowers and helping to mark moments in meaningful ways.
