Amanda & Jeff | The Ocean Club of Florida
Amanda & Jeff saw their wedding day as a celebration, not a spectacle. Music was important to them, food was tied to memories, and the flowers were going to be colorful and joyful. Amanda & Jeff were headed back to the same beach where Jeff proposed and they were going to say “I do” with Jeff’s kids standing by their side and Amanda’s ride or die best friend an arm’s length away.

Amanda & Jeff were headed back to the same beach where Jeff proposed and they were going to say “I do” with Jeff’s kids standing by their side and Amanda’s ride or die best friend an arm’s length away.
Within three months we pulled together Amanda’s vision through linens, florals, and an amazing vendor team that supported the easy-going, but intentional experience Amanda & Jeff wanted to create. Three months is an incredibly condensed timeframe, but it was one of the most fulfilling experiences I’ve ever had, all thanks to Amanda and her mom Betsy being in complete lock-step with each other and quickly welcoming me into their cadence. There was an instant kinship and inspiration was effortlessly found.
Amanda & Jeff’s families had been bonded for about a decade, tied together with a collection of shared memories and laughter. Their wedding day was merely a recommitment to promises already made and a life already firmly built together. Pulling together a party for a love that had stood the test of a decade was a joyful experience every step of the way. Pops of color and busts of laughter filled The Ocean Club of Florida while Amanda & Jeff celebrated their beautiful marriage.
Sweet words from the bride
“If you are looking for a wedding planner, florist and overall just a really great human, do not look any further. Jenny and her team are hands down the best. My gosh did she make it easy and enjoyable. All the while with a calming presence and a fantastic sense of humor. Not only did I gain a husband, but we all have beautiful memories for a lifetime and I am happy to say I’ve also gained a friend.” - Amanda

Ana & Jack | Jupiter Private Residence
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.
There is an effortlessness to Ana and Jack. Jack is a classic Florida boy who could live in flip flops and t-shirts, while Ana has a chic and sleek style that leaves you feeling like you could never look that elegant in white shorts and a tank top. They are relaxed, but particular, and knew exactly what they were looking for when it came to the wedding's design and atmosphere. Ana didn't want anything to be too fussy. She didn't want details where they weren't needed, and wanted everything to feel personal, a bit whimsical, and a touch garden inspired. Their ceremony decor was light and ethereal, while the moodier reception centerpieces felt grounded, well-traveled and freshly gathered.
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.

Lauren & Dallas | Hood River, Oregon
Lauren & Dallas’s love for live music, Phish, and travel helped inspire their floral design direction. Eclectic, whimsical, and almost electric; the flowers were vibrant and funky for their windy and chilly summer wedding on a tomato farm.
Lauren & Dallas have a once in a lifetime kind of love.
When I first met them 6 years ago, they already had years of adventures together under their belt. From California to Asia, their adventurous spirits somehow landed in the same place at the same time.
Dallas and I met at a winery party, I had just made the move to Oregon and I knew one person. He asked me if I would be friends with his girlfriend and I was instantly on my feet ready to meet Lauren. I remember that moment so clearly because I could tell after five seconds with Dallas that he loved his person so much that he was scoping people out in the hopes that she would start to feel at home in their new home.
If ever there were soulmates,
these two are it. In spite of all their travel adventures, they were raised in similar parts of the states, worked in the wine industry, carry a deep love for Korean food and fried chicken, and jam to the same music. Those two are always seeking out live performances, never missing an excuse to see Phish or drive into Portland for a new favorite.
Oftentimes, the hardest thing is to find a partner who wants to grow with you.
For years, Lauren & Dallas have been side by side pushing each other, learning new things, growing in their careers, and striving to be the best versions of themselves. They have both experienced massive losses and health scares, never finding a crack in their foundation. When I met them 6 years ago, it was as though they had already been married for a decade. So it was no surprise that a sentiment echoed throughout the evening was “its about time!”, but everything has been able to unfold in their own time. Which to me, makes it feel that much more special. It wasn’t for the fanfare, pressures from society, or a false timeline. It was always just about what was right for the two of them. Being a part of their wedding day is something I’ll always hold dear and I know the two of them will continue to create the most thoughtful and vibrant life together.

Josie & Teddy | The Ocean Club of Florida
What helped create this breezy classic oceanside wedding? Read more to see what elements we pulled together to bring Josie’s vision to life.
Josie and Teddy’s wedding was chic, classic, and allowed the backdrop of the ocean at the Ocean Club of Florida to shine.
We wanted the ocean, the sky, and the crash of the waves to be the focal point. Luckily, they even got an appearance from the full moon.
We brought in texture on a statement bar with a gorgeous linen overlay. Kept florals monochromatic and fluffy. Brought in cafe lights to create an intimate and magical feeling, a weathered oak dance floor that felt like driftwood and kept everything crisp with moments of antique-style elements to keep it feeling grounded and classic.
Their welcome party was a sunny celebration that allowed guests to mingle and relax at The Ocean Club of Florida. The club ended up feeling like the backyard of Josie and Teddy’s home, as they would welcome guests back the next day to celebrate their marriage.
What helped create the breezy classic oceanside wedding?
Attire that was frothy, blue and white, like the crash of an ocean wave.
Cafe lights that felt like stars strung across the sky. Antique-style vessels were used for monochromatic white blooms. A statement bar with textured linens and large floral arrangements anchored the expansive green space. A weathered oak dance floor evoked driftwood, and clear glass candle accents created ambiance and simplistic refinement. But the part that always elevates a wedding to me? True linen linens. The light reflects differently off a natural texture as opposed to a white poly. Your pictures will look all the more soft and chic if a natural fiber is used.
Final touch? The ocean breeze and a couple in love.

Sweet words from the bride
“I don’t even know where to begin! Thank you, truly, for everything you did to make our wedding so beautiful, meaningful, and seamless. From our very first email exchange, your calm energy and thoughtfulness gave me such a sense of peace. You had this incredible way of making even the most overwhelming decisions feel manageable. Your organization, insight, and gentle guidance brought everything together in a way that felt so personal and true to us.
And the flowers! Jenny, I was absolutely blown away! They were beyond gorgeous. Every single arrangement was stunning, from the bouquets to the boutonnieres to the lush centerpieces. The two large floral arrangements at the church especially took my breath away. They were so grand and elegant. It made my heart so happy when I saw them again later on the satellite bar at the reception, they added so much beauty to every space they touched.
It’s not lost on me how many hours and moving parts went into this day. Your grace, professionalism, and patience did not go unnoticed. I was able to be fully present and in the moment, knowing you had everything under control behind the scenes. That is such a gift, and one I will never forget!!
So many people told us it was one of the most special weddings they’ve ever attended, and that is in no small part thanks to you.
With all my love and deepest gratitude,”
Taylor & Chad | The Ocean Club of Florida, Ocean Ridge
It was as if the rain clouds knew exactly when to finish their dance, leaving our team just moments to jump in and install lush gatherings of florals across the fence line. Nature somehow seems to always know exactly when it needs to let the party start at The Ocean Club.
Taylor and Chad’s wedding was the third wedding we’ve been lucky enough to see come to life at The Ocean Club of Florida, and it felt so uniquely her own. Taylor and I spent a year together dreaming up florals that felt whimsical and timeless, with elements of the sea infused. In usual Florida fashion, it was a blustery rainy afternoon. Bursts of storms kept rolling through as we were trying to perfectly time the ceremony install and maintain the dream of her outdoor ceremony. It was as if the clouds knew exactly when to finish their dance, leaving our team just moments to jump in and install lush gatherings of florals across the fence line. Nature somehow seems to always know exactly when it needs to let the party start at The Ocean Club.
The weddings that leave a lasting impression on me and my team are the ones where the family seems to effortlessly absorb us in their day. I usually try to remain a fly on the wall, letting the family enjoy their moment while me, the fly, adjusts lighting, or coordinates speeches with the band. But when you’re stuck in a corner under layers of tulle trying to bustle a gown you’ve never had hands on before and the groom is giggling along with you, when you witness the bride and groom weeping from happiness just while simply looking at each other, when the mother of the bride loads florals in the back of her car at the end of the night accompanied by the biggest smile and most sincere hug - the hours seem to fly (no pun intended) by and before you know it the magic is being packed up, but certainly never forgotten.

Danielle & Julian | Wedding Floral Design Workshop
The day before their wedding, I arrived with buckets of flowers that were uniquely selected with Danielle’s vision in mind. I called her aesthetic “Modern Nonna”. It was a gorgeous blend of florals from times past, in a modernized color story of mango, rich purples, and creamy buttery yellow.
Danielle and Julian’s wedding is one of the most memorable experiences I’ve been lucky enough to be a part of. Every little detail felt so uniquely them and pulled their friends and family into their love story. Cocktail napkins printed with love letters hand written by each of them were sprinkled across the venue alongside floral arrangements that were designed the day before by her closest girlfriends.

After stations were setup, her besties filled pin frog dishes with florals, caught up with each other, and drank mimosas. While everyone created their own arrangements, I worked on a focal ceremony arrangement, Danielle’s bouquet, and Julian’s boutonniere. In the end, Danielle had a living room full of lush arrangements that were wedding day ready, all with a different personality and representing a few of her favorite people.
Included in each wedding workshop
Bridal Bouquet
Boutonniere
1 Statement Piece, perfect for the altar or other focal point
Centerpieces handcrafted by your favorite people
The morning of their wedding, ceremony arrangements were sent to the Ann Norton Sculpture Garden for their intimate ceremony with immediate family. Reception arrangements landed at Composition Coffee where unique bunches of fruits and nuts from the farmers market were intertwined with the florals.
After working in the wedding industry for over 10 years, I often check in with myself and ask “why are we doing this?”…. Danielle and Julian’s wedding offered a clear answer. It is about community. It is about a celebration of love and the resulting next chapter. Danielle’s workshop highlighted all the things I love most about weddings. I told her afterwards that her floral workshop reminded me of the wedding scene in Fiddler on the the Roof. The entire community excitedly puts everything aside to gather. It is rooted in tradition, one that celebrates a success and the continuation of what a family has fought for and poured endless amounts of love and effort into. It doesn’t need to be showy or sparkly to feel special. The sparkle comes from the effusive smiles on everyone’s faces and the collaboration of multiple family members and friends, all in the hopes that a new, strong home is created and certain traditions might remain. I hope that Danielle and Julian find ways to gather with loved ones and create something together for years to come, and that a floral workshop just might become a tradition in their family.

Sara & Christoph | The Pelican Club
Sara’s vision was playful, breezy, and classic, with the Pelican Club in Jupiter, FL offering the perfect backdrop. I loved seeing all of her bridesmaids’ dresses paired with cloud-like gatherings of baby’s breath bouquets. Tables were decorated with peach toned taper candles, and whimsical bud vases.
