Carolyn and Rodney’s wedding at the Barnes Foundation was a striking celebration of vibrant pinks. The museum’s sweeping architecture served as the perfect modern backdrop for a monochromatic design that felt both bold and chic. The all-pink palette made a stunning statement, with vibrant florals bringing energy and sophistication to every corner of the space. Fulton Events expertly planned the day, ensuring every detail harmonized with the couple’s vision. The celebration featured catering by Constellation, stationery by Chick Invitations, and a show-stopping cake by Nutmeg Cake Design. Forget Me Knot Flowers repurposed the stunning arrangements so their beauty could continue to bring joy after the event.

Lauren and Luke’s Union League wedding perfectly illustrates how event design can transform a space. We reimagined the traditional Lincoln Hall as a modern, sophisticated supper club. The moody, chic design fostered an unexpectedly intimate atmosphere, seamlessly balancing the grandeur of the historic space with our vision. Lush florals paired with contemporary decor elements and rich textures elevated the design. Revolution Event Production brought the ambiance to life with impeccable lighting, while Styled Bride ensured every detail came together effortlessly. Anerino Originals beautifully captured the day, with hair by Amanda D’Andrea Hair, makeup by JKo Beauty, and stationery by Chick Invitations adding personal and elegant touches to this unforgettable celebration.

Carly and Gabe’s fall Barnes Foundation wedding was all about romantic, garden-inspired elegance. In order to soften the sweeping geometric lines of the Barnes Foundation’s Annenberg Court and Terrace we created floral designs with softness coming both from big open flower shapes and a soft color palette of white with hints of barely-there blush and peach. The focal point of the ceremony was a stunning garden chuppah covered entirely in lush, cloud-like florals. We echoed this feeling again in the reception with tall centerpieces atop clear lucite stands. The day was beautifully captured by Asya Photography, expertly planned by Fulton Events and guests were wined and dined by Constellation Culinary with a cake by Nutmeg Cake Design.

For Lauren and Cody’s Four Seasons wedding, the couple initially the couple fell in love with a rose variety called “Nina,” an incredible color somewhere between bright red and coral orange. We used this as the inspiration for our color palette. For the ceremony on the 59th floor we opted for a lucite chuppah in order to leave the sweeping city views unobstructed. Topping the structure with dozens of white phalaenopsis orchids created a luxe cloud of flowers above. In the reception space, guests were wowed by the full event color palette, a range of pinks accented with that perfectly vibrant Nina rose. Truly You Events planned the day to perfection, Revolution Event Production provided the lighting and guests were entertained by BVT live. The Papery of Philadelphia provided paper items, Vision Furniture the rentals, and the day was captured by Tyler Boye and Cinemacake.

For Tyler & Michael’s summer wedding at the Barnes Foundation the bride and groom wanted to create a setting that was not only romantic, but also unique and personalized. While Tyler loved the varied textures and bold florals of boho design, she still gravitated towards a romantic garden style. Not wanting to lose those unexpected touches, we looked to create an ethereal garden space that would be warm and welcoming, filled with out-of-the-box, memorable moments for their guests to enjoy. Planned by Truly You Events and Photographed by Love Me Do Photography, Tyler and Michael’s ceremony and reception both took place at The Barnes Foundation where Constellation Culinary provided catering.

Winnie really loved lush, romantic florals that reflect late summer and she wanted to balance out the formal setting of The Ashford Estate with lots of romantic garden texture. To do this we brought in buckets of local flowers and foliage like chocolate dahlias, elaeagnus, plum branches, and tardiva hydrangea, along with lush and textural blossoms like Princess Charlene of Monaco garden roses, and peach ranunculus to achieve a design that had ample movement and visual interest, but still felt soft and romantic. The affair was photographed by Emily Wren Photography and our bride wore Allure Bridals from Castle Couture with hair and makeup by Aleksandra Ambrozy. Stationery was created by Bella Figura, Merri-Makers catered and entertainment was provided by The Big House Band.

Lindsay and Matt got lucky when their wedding venue was an easy choice! Lindsay's parents, Deena and Mark, just happen to own one of the most gorgeous wedding venues in Bucks County, The Inn at Barley Sheaf Farm. With a rich history and over 100 stunning acres of land surrounding, hosting their special day at Barley Sheaf was a no-brainer. To compliment the beautiful outdoor surroundings at the farm we designed immersive pieces inside of the barn that would bring the outdoors in and really make guests feel as though they were inside of a secret garden. The sweetheart table, the focal point of our “garden” included florals that would appear to grow up the existing beams to make our bride and groom feel as though they were completely surrounded by flowers. Catering for the day was provided by Barley Sheaf, lighting and draping by DFW events and photography is courtesy of Juliana Laury Photography.

From the beginning Melissa and Logan knew that they wanted to host a formal black tie wedding but more traditional venues just didn’t feel like them. As soon as they set foot in the Horticulture Center they knew it was the place. After getting engaged in the jungle, getting married in a greenhouse in their home city just felt right. For the big day the bride carried a show-stopping asymmetrical bouquet featuring orchids, white poppies and anemones, complete with pops of salmon ranunculus and the pair was married under a lush chuppah in the greenhouse. All About Events was on hand for event planning, our friends at Revolution Event Production brought their rose gold disco balls and guests were wined and dined by Constellation and entertained all night by EBE. The entire whimsical, romantic, elegant affair was captured by Tyler Boye.

If you’ve ever been to Cape May, New Jersey then you’ve certainly seen Congress Hall. Truly a local icon, the bright yellow, 200 year old hotel is a location that many couples planning a wedding “down the shore” will consider. For Maddie and John it proved to be the perfect site for their October nuptials. Together we designed an event that felt like a timeless garden party, even though guests were mere steps from the ocean the entire night. Planned by The Styled Bride and Photographed by Rachel Pearlman Photography, Maddie and John were married at Our Lady Star of the Sea after which guests enjoyed a tented reception on the lawn, catered by Congress Hall. Synergetic provided event lighting and our design was completed by rental items from Something Vintage.

Miller Catering, the tented reception featured delicate blue floral print runners reminiscent of the blue and white chinoiserie, as well as tables named for the different towns of Martha’s Vineyard.

Karley and Max’s wedding was a stunning outdoor affair at New Hope’s picturesque Paxon Hill Farm planned by Two Little Birds Planning and photographed by M2 Photography. The bride wore Sareh Nouri with hair and makeup by Aleksandra Ambrozy and we completed the look with a textural hand-tied bouquet of burgundy dahlias, creamy taupe-colored roses, dripping pink pepperberry and hanging burgundy amaranthus. The ceremony took place in the farm’s beautiful amphitheater space where we covered the front of the rustic stage with greenery and lush florals. Following the ceremony guests enjoyed a cocktail hour complete with a mobile prosecco bar by The Roving Bar. With the help of signage by Oak + Sparrow, guests then continued on to the reception beneath a sailcloth tent by Sperry Tents where the design was completed with a hanging floral installation and specialty rental items from Maggpie, Party Rental LTD, and White Glove Rentals. Sage Catering served a tasty mean which we finished with wedding cake by Bredenbeck’s Bakery. ECE Modern Luxe kept the party going all night while guests captured memories in the Classic Photo Booth. Stagger Films created the wedding day film.
