Brooklyn wedding!











Dramatic, elegant, avant-garde, overgrown; there are all words that I would describe this intimate wedding affair. The ceremony took place at the brides gorgeous Brown stone in Carroll Gardens. We hung a family heirloom, tallis in the door frame for the focal point of the ceremony. We hung tea lights along with some champagne ribbon interspersed between the tea lights over head. At the base of where they were standing was a group of tall pillar candles in clear glass for a sophisticated, romantic effect. The party then took place at the Clover club on Smith street. With it's gorgeous tin ceiling, wood work and tile floors, we set the tone by using all vintage brass ware with eggplant, peach, and rashpberry colored blooms like fritterella, garden roses, deep red cymbidium orchids, dark foliage, lisianthus and jasmine. It was a pleasure to work with the gals from Little Miss Party Planners as well as the ultra talented Levi Stolove Photography!

Brooklyn Botanic Gardens wedding flowers.












My bride contacted me last summer to start planning her Feb. 19th wedding at the Botanical Gardens this winter. I have to say, it means so much to me to have a bride place such trust in me and leave so many design decisions completely in my court. She came to me knowing her colors were purple and grey and that her style was modern with a funky twist, but that was it! NOTHING makes me happier than to hand over a bridal bouquet to a happy bride. I loved working on this wedding!
The card table arrangement was made from Laurel branches with scallop shaped tags hanging from black ribbon assigning guests to a table. I wired in purple orchids into the branches for a pop of color and to soften the branches with blooms.
The grooms bout was made with a ranuncuous, purple trachelium and a touch of brunia.
