Mimi and Franklin's Wedding

We just received some pictures from Mimi and Franklin's wedding and wanted to share them. Theirs was a destination wedding that took place on the beach in May. We loved planning the decor and flowers with this fun couple, and hope you enjoy these photos.

Look at these beautiful bouquets! For the bride it was lavender Roses, Dendrobium Orchids, Stock , Phlox, and Freesia, with touches of purple Mini Calla Lilies and orange Mokara Orchids, and for the bridesmaids a mix of purple and orange Mokara Orchids.



Here is the couple and the girls with their bouquets.





Party having fun on the beach...



And their reception tables, which included two styles: one with three vases with Mini Calla Lilies, Orchids, and Tulips submerged inside along with a floating candle, and the other a low vase with floating Gerbera heads along with a vase with Mini Calla Lilies and a floating candle. All the centerpieces were lit with LED lights to give them an elegant glow and make them stand out in the room.





Thanks for sharing the photos!

Fourth of July Wedding

Our Fourth of July started off with a bang - a destination wedding held at the beautiful Grove Isle Hotel and Spa in Coconut Grove. The bride and groom arrived for perfect weather on their wedding day.

In the all the designs we used many different types of Orchids: Nora, Mokara, Phaleanopsis, and Dendrobium, along with Mini Calla Lilies, Peonies, Tulips, Nerine and Stargazer Lilies, and Hydrangeas throughout. The flowers in tones of pinks, reds, and purples paired with candlelight, up-lights, and pin lights on the tables created a very romantic feel to the room.

Here are some photos of the reception table centerpieces:

And cake table.



Outside on the deck, we created a bamboo canopy for the ceremony, adorned with Orchid garlands on each of the posts. We also placed an aisle runner with scattered Rose petals.

And here was the water view from the deck at the Grove Isle where guests could watch the fireworks later that night (and not just between the bride and groom)!





We had a great time at this beautiful wedding. Thanks everyone!

End-of-May Weddings

We wrapped up the last weekend of May with a few weddings. Unfortunately it was a rainy one, so some adjustments had to be made, but everything worked out great.

On Friday was the wedding of Andrea at the Palms Hotel. She went with a Tiffany blue color theme, and we created this blue-and-white Chuppah for the ceremony. 

The reception tables had a sleek, classic design with Orchids submerged inside glass cylinder vases, placed over a mirror.

Saturday afternoon was Adriana's wedding at the Ocean Club in Key Biscayne. We decorated with florals in a mix of purple, fuschia, and green.

And our last wedding for the month of May was Sonia's beach wedding at the National Hotel, with nature-inspired decor.

Mari: a Biltmore Bride

Last Saturday was the wedding of Mari and Michael at the Biltmore Hotel. We used a fall color palette including tones of red, orange, and brown in the florals. We created this beautiful canopy as well as an assortment of vases for the two royal tables in the reception.

Chad and Rita's Wedding

Friday night we decorated the wedding of Chad and Rita at the Palms Hotel. Luckily, the rain decided to stop just for their wedding. The bride and groom were nice enough to send us these photos, and we thought it would be you would to see the happy couple and their beautiful wedding. 

We used a purple and lavender color theme throughout, accented with orange and ivory. For the bride we created a teardrop bouquet of Roses, Godetia, Hyancinth, Lisianthus, Spray Roses, Nora, Dendrobium and Cymbidium Orchids, and Mini Calla Lilies, with a cascade of Ivy and white Cymbidium Orchids.

On the reception tables we put a large fishbowl, decorated with flowers outside and Steel Grass and two Goldfish inside.

And here are some more of our own shots of the outside setup.
