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!

There is something especially beautiful about bringing soft garden flowers into a space like St. Francis Hall. The historic stone walls have a certain weight to them, and loose, romantic florals create a lovely contrast that keeps the room from feeling too formal.⁣
⁣
For Marina & Kosta’s wedding, the goal was to make the reception feel like a garden had quietly taken over the hall. We designed lush arrangements in peach, cream, and fresh greens that felt natural and abundant on the tables. Against the warm tones of the room and the glow of candlelight, the flowers softened the space and made the entire evening feel relaxed, welcoming, and full of life.⁣

Easter may fall at a different time every year, but one thing`s for sure, once it passes, wedding season is officially HERE! We couldn`t be more excited for the beautiful weddings, galas, and celebrations coming up this month. And spring flowers? Absolute favorites. Always⁣

Blooming branches – that harbinger of new beginnings, a flower whose very appearance serves as the epitaph to winter. But that sweet symbolism isn’t the only reason we love them!

Very few botanical elements feature both soft edges AND the jutting architecture of flowering branches. As floral designers, we adore the juxtaposition of soft, demure pastels with their sheer height and commanding presence. There’s just something about that that just screams wedding, don’t you think?

So don’t be afraid to branch out and get creative. Blooming branches look spectacular in weddings – in everything from ceremony arches to reception decor – and create a big impactful look.
