The color scheme was purples, fuscias and oranges for this bold summer wedding. The Jewish wedding was held beneath the tent on the grounds of The Garrison since the threat of rain was upon the day. Engaging Floral Designs has a stunning back up plan in the event of rain - an all birch chuppah that can be used both indoors and outdoors due to it's sturdy construction and can be adorned however the client wishes. For this clients' wedding, we draped the grand chuppah structure with white fabric and accented the front with a large floral cascade of snap dragons, stock, lilies, orange and purple roses, spider mums, cremone mums, and greenery. The structure is so bit it can comfortably fit the parents, bride, groom, and Rabbi inside it. The couple gave us their Tallis to hang on the roof of the chuppah.

The bride's bouquet was a dark eggplant calla lily and fuscia/purple rose bouquet and her bridesmaid bouquets were same eggplant calla but with orange roses and spray roses to complement their dresses.

It was a good way to get additional use out of the pieces site. Onsite we had replenished these pieces with beautiful hydrangeas, dahlias, roses, bells of ireland, lisianthus and other delicate flowers in the blue/creamy white/green color scheme. The sweetheart table was adorned with a lush draping arrangement of the same flowers including white stock and ruscus. There were 20 centerpieces in total so it was plenty to do half as low arrangements and the other half as tall candelabra centerpieces. It saved the bride some money to do some low instead of all high. The containers/candelabras were rental pieces that the florist provided and setup. In the foyer, a large escort ...

A Challenging September wedding at West Park Winery Day of Coordination by NY Engagements, LLC. With all the weeks of planning and care that goes into each event as a day of coordinator, there's always one that a planner picks up that comes pre-packaged with a whirlwind of potential challenges that we will be walking into - from working with vendors who are brand new to the wedding industry, potential weather related issues at mainly outdoor venues/tented weddings, high traffic holiday weekends that can leave vendors traveling long distances stranded... yes this all affected us. In addition, there are the challenges that you'll least expect - like a ceremony participant knocking over and breaking a ceremonial teapot for a Korean tea ceremony, a dj having a corrupt music file for the bride's ceremony entrance music that we had to remedy quickly for him, a rickety chuppah that falls down with an intense gush of tornado wind just as the ceremony ends, a dj that didn't kno...
