Natalie and Eben choose to purchase flowers from Lippincott Manor’s all-inclusive package, but opted to tweak their flowers just a little. Instead of purchasing extra centerpieces, they opted to create their own for the tables (there were a lot of tables!) and have me create one large scale one for the place card table, and another for the sweetheart table.
They chose a perfect color scheme for a hot month like July, deep watermelon pink and bright lime green. If I wasn’t 6 months pregnant, I would have rushed home and made myself a Mojito or Daiquiri! These colors just make one want to be by the pool relaxing!
Reusable and sustainable elements were important to this couple, they even recycled their Metro Cards as place cards! Their centerpieces were Lucky Bamboo plants, placed in clear glass vases. For the sweetheart table we still used the Hydrangea, Alstromeria, Green Berries, and Bupleurem offered in the package; but we upgraded the size and type of the vase and filled it with River Rock, and added Curly Willow Twig accents. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to get a very good picture of the place card arrangement, but it was very similar in look and feel to the sweetheart arrangement, but was placed in a towering glass cylinder vase with much larger branches extending out and upward. All in all a very refreshing look!
Please note: many of these pictures were taken by our very newest intern, Daijha Leonard.
