All in Florida Wedding
This story starts all the way back in high school. I was a shy Sophomore, not entirely sure what I was doing in TV Production and Dom was a Junior who looked like she had this whole life thing figured out. Somehow I was welcomed into her group and we became instantly inseparable.
Courtney and Drew wanted to welcome guests into an ethereal waterfront estate wedding. We filled their tables with lush greenery garlands with touches of white blooms incorporated throughout. Courtney's bouquet was a dreamy neutral collection of dainty hellebores, fluffy peonies, plush scabiosa, and champagne roses. Everything felt elegant and delicate, bringing the garden inside and setting the tone for a romantic wedding among the stars.
Stephanie and Jason are one of those couples who make you believe in true, deep, never-ending soulmate love. When she would talk about him in our meetings her face illuminated. She loved the details, and wanted her wedding to be beautiful and different - but at the end of the day all she cared about was the fact she got to say, "I do", to a guy she was head over heels in love with.
This year will go down as the year of the garland. With so many of our brides asking for the lush greenery look, it left me racking my brain trying to come up with alternative ways to evoke that lush simple tablescape, while staying true to each bride's individual style.
When Jenna first met with us she wanted half of her tables to feature garlands. It took a little convincing, but we were able to create overhead garlands which created a more impactful garland alternative and still left the overall design feeling lush and organic.
Creating with friends in mind is always a refreshing way to spend a Sunday. When Francesca of Coco Prop Shop started planning her wedding and pulling personalized details in, she knew she wanted to support local whenever possible. To showcase the personal details Francesca and Naomi so carefully pulled together, we spent a Sunday brunching, laughing, and cocktail-ing.
As a South Florida native, you may think that I would have grown tired of bright colors, bold patterns, and tropical details by now. To that I say, nope! There is something timeless and endlessly charming about Palm Beach. The Colony Hotel located on Palm Beach Island showcases all of it's whimsy and elegance in the perfect way.
I'll never forget setting up the day of Ana and Jack's wedding. I was sitting in the middle of the grassy lawn, applying aisle markers to their ceremony chairs, soaking in some sun rays and watching as her wedding team buzzed about setting up detail after detail. It was a day full of sweet little moments, team work, and gorgeous views that all ended with a beautiful and intimate party complete with Stella's in the bride and groom's hands on the dance floor.
