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!

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

Not all green and white floral palettes are created equal. This one here will NEVER go out of style and is truly as timeless as they come! Magnolia, eucalyptus, rosemary, and delicate touches of white… Add velvet linens and gold touches, and we’re smitten... 😍
