Gobs of hydrangea, delphinium and garden roses, blue-and-white Chinoiserie vases, candlelight, and a bridal bouquet that might be one of my favorites from this wedding season... Blue and white will forever have my heart. 💙 🤍
What I love most is that none of it feels like we were trying too hard to make “blue and white” a theme. It’s simply a beautiful palette, repeated thoughtfully throughout the wedding, from Alexandra’s bouquet to the tables at Riggs. Can we talk about that blue-on-blue wall with those plates for those wedding party portraits? Just PERFECTION!

Is there anything better than a museum for a wedding? Asking for a friend…

Classic with a fall twist! Touches of blush, dark brown hues of magnolia and nine bark, plus a touch of “colonial blue” to befit the setting. Perfection.

Katie + Jake’s wedding was PURE SPRING. 🌸
Peonies, Juliet garden roses, ranunculus, sweet pea, stock, campanula... Basically all the flowers you hope will show up when someone tells you they’re getting married in May.
We kept everything loose and gardeny, in peaches, soft blush, white and those wonderful slightly faded greens that keep pastels from becoming too sugary. And at Woodlawn, surrounded by actual spring? So, so pretty.
This is exactly why May flowers have my heart.
Their reception arrangements continued that mix of garden roses, tea roses, spray roses, ranunculus, butterfly ranunculus, campanula and sweet pea.

One of my favorite moments at every St. Francis Hall wedding is right before the ceremony begins. The room fills with that quiet anticipation as guests take their seats and the flowers finally become part of the scene they were designed for.
For Alexandra & Sam’s ceremony, the stage was framed with a lush, deconstructed arch, creating a focal point against the hall’s burgundy proscenium drape. As the music began and Alexandra walked down the aisle, everything came together in that way it only does once. The architecture, the flowers, the lighting, and two people about to start their marriage. It is always a privilege to help shape that moment.
