THE FLOWERS

A broken arch with a second life.

The broken arch and ceremony ground arrangements were moved to the reception, where marigold and dahlia garland carried the floral story into the celebration.

OUR APPROACH

Designed to move with the celebration.

At the waterfront ceremony, the broken arch and ground arrangements framed the couple while keeping the Lake Michigan setting in view. After the ceremony, we moved those pieces into the reception so they could continue shaping the space. Marigold and dahlia garland added another layer of seasonal color, carrying the flowers from one part of the celebration into the next.
