Kendra + Conner's Whimsical Fantasy-World-Inspired Wedding

We had the joy of bringing two book (specifically fantasy) lovers’ dream whimsical wedding to life for Kendra and Conner to tie the knot. Their ceremony and reception embodied a Harry Potter-Lord of The Rings feel with a palette of blues, greens and warm tones and that perfect mix of whimsy and organic-style floral elements and the subtly gothic elements of the venue.

Kendra and Conner’s ceremony was an explosion of flowers with a fully lined aisle of lush ground arrangements and a custom gothic-style arch with four legs at the altar. Everything was made to look somewhat overgrown and we didn’t hold back on the greenery one bit — it created such great contrast with the brighter orange and yellow blooms in this installation.

The reception — in Hotel Drover’s stunning indoor space — was completely transformed by not only forest-inspired table arrangements and decor, but tree-inspired centerpieces dripping with white blooms and hanging votives. These plotted throughout the space on several guest tables really contributed to that immersive whimsical atmosphere. 

The head table had its own statement — a lush garland embellished with lots of candlelight. All of the tables featured rich blue and green tones in the linens and place settings, which added so much depth along with the greenery and wooden/stone touches that the venue provided.

Kendra’s bridesmaids fittingly wore deep emerald green and carried contrasting bright and organic-style bouquets. The bridal bouquet similarly featured pops of yellow and orange, and drew on Kendra’s ivory dress with a few white statement blooms.
