It may have rained on this couple’s wedding day, but you’d never know it by their smiles! Arielle and Matt wanted a rustic Hendry House wedding filled with organic touches to complement their historic park setting. Arielle’s bouquet was designed in that same elegant and organic motif, with white peonies accented with loose olive branch and seeded eucalyptus greenery. Her bridesmaids carried similar bouquets with ivory roses and spray roses and accented with that gorgeous olive branch foliage and seeded eucalyptus.

That was on display with the birch branch pole chuppah accented with arrangements of white hydrangea, ivory roses and spray roses, and white stock accented with draping seeded eucalyptus and olive branch foliage. Birch is the perfect complement for a rustic Hendry House wedding ceremony.

The reception arrangements for this rustic Hendry House wedding featured a square glass vase filled with a textured mix in shades of ivory, pale pink, and sage green. This fun-loving couple had a bicycle built for two cake topper, and each layer was ringed with olive leaf foliage and seeded eucalyptus. The mother of the bride reported that the greenery looked perfect as each piece was sliced!

No jokes here! Just your friendly wedding florist having a great time during setup! :) We loved designing this unique whimsical ceremony setup with tropical undertones, coupled with reception centerpieces that incorporated some new(ish) floral elements like bleached ruscus on the tables. But, no pranks here when we recommend scheduling your complimentary floral consultation today as we are filling up for the rest of 2025 and spring of 2026! ⁣

A chuppah like no other. ✨ For Lottie & Kyle’s wedding at the Hotel Monaco, we framed the ceremony with tall, airy designs of eucalyptus, larkspur and delphinium, while delicate strands of white dendrobium orchids floated from the canopy suspended between the rotunda columns. The result? A chuppah that felt ethereal, elegant, and completely one-of-a-kind. Don’t miss the next photo for a closer look at this dreamy design!

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.

A floral moment as timeless as Leah & Matt’s love. 🤍 Their intimate ceremony at Mount Vernon Inn featured a breathtaking circular arch of lush white roses—the perfect symbol of eternity. Inside, glass-enclosed taper candles set aside soft, full blooms filled the tables and set the scene for a romantic reception. Classic, elegant, and completely unforgettable. ⁣

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? 💅

Thank you to Megan and Damien for their 5 star review! We loved flowering and coordinating their beautiful wedding day at St. Francis Hall! ⁣

“We were so lucky that we found Petal`s Edge. Gorgeous flowers and we hired Gerry for her super talented day of wedding coordination. Planning a wedding is hard but Petal`s Edge made it easy. Beyond super beautiful florals that really elevated our day and made it special, it was such a huge help that any time I was stuck in the planning process, Gerry answered any question I had. Her professionalism and capabilities are simply unmatched. She knows everything about venues, vendors and more inside and out. Meetings to see your floral designs are super smooth. Petal`s Edge will write your contract super fast and easily helped us amend it. The day of the wedding couldn`t have been more perfect. It was so easy and fun. Petal`s Edge set everything up perfectly and make sure it ran smoothly. The florals were so beautiful!! I loved all of the details, from a stunning bridal bouquet, posies for moms and grandmas, framing the posters with eucalyptus, to gorgeous multicolored petals down the aisle. Our guests were so comfortable and well taken care of the whole night. Petal`s Edge really took the rustic/classic vision I had in mind and made it a gorgeous reality.”⁣
