This super fun couple chose the Botanical Gardens at Roger Williams Park in RI for their weddings celebration. The crisp white with chartreuse and pops of fuchsia, combined with a gentle touch of feather, made this unique event incredibly memorable. (The fab photos are courtesy of

The wedding party donned a textured floral look that included green hydrangea, green spider mums, cymbidium orchids, and ranunculous. The contrast with the metallic sheen of the slate dresses looked so vibrant!

Nikki's bouquet was the perfect mix of softness (thank you hydrangea, celosia, viburnum, and white feathers!) and texture (oh how we love cymbidium orchids, star of Bethlehem, and hypericum berries!).. creating a round bouquet with some pizzazz. :)

I just have to point out how absolutely gorgeous those fuchsia ranunculous are in the attendants' bouquets!!

Take note that even the gents got a little feather-glam added to their boutonnieres.

The ceremony included one of my favorite aisle accessories -- pomanders! They were a mix of hot pink carnation and chartreuse spider mum pomanders. Nikki showed us a new trick by taking these fun flower accents and bringing them into the reception in a VERY funky way. (see below)

The ceremony pomanders were brought into the reception and hung from..... wait for it... banana stands! These were placed on the cocktail tables, and we loved this idea! (Thanks Nikki!)

The reception was held in a ultra-crisp-white tent, with birdcages hung up high and sporting candlelight, tall funky arrangements on clear trumpet vases, and a very chic lounge area. Two fab editions to the high arrangements were curly willow and bamboo stalks. Add in some uplighting, metallic-slate table linens, chartreuse/fuchsia pops of color, and this was one classy evening!
