A Windswept Ceremony & an Immersive Coastal Reception

From the very first meeting, Noelle and Dan placed their full trust in our hands—and that trust allowed us to dream big and design boldly.

Their day began on the beach, with a ceremony crafted entirely from scratch. Battling 20 mph winds, we built a full ceremony set-up on the sand, florals swaying gently in the breeze as if they belonged to the ocean. It was dramatic, romantic, and unforgettable.


The celebration continued at the iconic Knife & Fork Inn, where the couple hosted a cocktail-style reception in an intimate, historic space. With a smaller footprint to work with, we designed upward—installing florals that cascaded from four statement chandeliers and crafting a custom architectural floral moment to frame the space without taking up precious floor real estate. The result? A truly immersive atmosphere that felt both elevated and enchanting.

Guests raved. Noelle cried. And every detail—down to the last bloom—was designed with intention, heart, and trust.

As Noelle so graciously put it, “All the Pinterest pictures in the world could not match her creative ideas and class.” We were honored to bring her vision to life.
