A beautiful day for a wedding - June 3 at the Howland Cultural Center and Bear Mountain Overlook Lodge

It was a spectacular day for a wedding on June 3 in the Hudson Valley! This bride had a beautiful vintage wedding dress that looked stunning against her romantic bouquet of anemones, poppies, peonies, cream roses, stock bupleurum and other local greenery.




The groom wore a peony boutonniere.





The bridesmaid dresses were a very soft pale pink color, so the bride chose to enhance some of the pink tones to make them pop against the creamy pink background.




The ceremony took place at the Howland Cultural Center. To decorate the site for this wedding, the bride chose 2 wreaths to adorn the pillars in front of the center. The wreaths will preserve nicely as well!















Inside, the ceremony area was marked by a set of ceremony arrangements on our white pedestal rentals inside the room.



At the Bear Mountain Overlook Lodge, the tables displayed a natural soft arrangement of peonies, garden roses, hydrangea, tulips, and local greenery. On each cocktail table was a single pale pink floating peony. And on the bridal party table, the bride's mother spent months collecting vintage mini bottles to scatter down the table with some of the bride's favorite flowers such as poppies, anemones, peonies and other seasonal flowers.

Looking Back - 2010's Weddings and Event Highlights..

A Grand June Wedding at Trump National Golf Club in Briarcliff Manor, New York Flowers by Engaging Floral Designs The aisle markers that were used at the ceremony which took place at St. Theresa's Church in Trumbull, CT were repurposed to decorate the mantle and cocktail tables at Trump National Golf Club. 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 ...

Alternative Wedding Guest Book Ideas That Serve As Functional Home Decor After The Wedding

Your wedding day is one of the most memorable moments of your life, and what better way to cherish those memories than with a creative guest book alternative? Sure there’s always the Polaroid Photo DIY Guest Book, but let’s take the ideas up a notch! Here are 5 unique wedding guest keepsakes that capture the essence of your special day while also having a functional purpose to enjoy for years to come: 1.
