an old edwards inn wedding | wedding design and verge events

in my first call with kendra, she said,  “i am more martha stewart than kim kardashian.”  so when this wedding ended up being published on martha stewart online, you can only imagine the joy that was seeing this wedding come full circle was for us.

the idea was pink, which we paired with a flax linen {all custom from i do linens}, along with flowers… lots and lots of flowers in a garden style approach.  between kendra’s love of flowers and the style and artistry of beth from studio flora diva… holy gorgeousness!

here’s is a snapshot of the design inspiration we pulled together…

these next images go down as probably my most favorite from a wedding.  ever. you see.. we put our heart and soul into this.  i felt a tremendous connection with kendra and jeff, and they were such a dream to work with.  so when it comes to wedding day, and everything is coming together, i want them to walk in and love every single thing.  every single element. every detail is important, and to see so many conversations come to life is really the part i love the most.  unless you are talking about this moment.  the one that brought me to tears.  the moment they saw the reception for the first time. so grateful nancy ray and team was their to capture it all.

please be seated 🌿🪑🌿 a beautiful way to welcome your guests! ⁠
⁠
also, these things just do not line up on the first go 🤣 and the moss wall does not just stand up on its own [thank you @floressenceflowers!] there is math involved, a person on a chair, and someone telling said person on the chair if it is even, and so many push pins! and if it is raining, which it was, you have to make sure the paper doesn't get all damp and not lay right!⁠
we keep saying it, and we will say it again - details matter.⁠
⁠
thank you for the capture @rachelandnoahray with @floressenceflowers @lakeedenretreat @professionalparty!
A moment for the cake and the florals 🌸🍰🌸⁠ One thing we always hear - how can we reuse the flowers from the ceremony? if you have ground floral behind the chairs at ceremony, those can be moved during cocktail hour and placed before your guests enter the reception! bonus points if no one sees you do it ;) also... an arbor just c.a.n.n.o.t be moved in its entirety, so if repurposing is important to you, this is something to think about!⁠
⁠
shoutout to the team! @flatmountainfarm @floressenceflowers @eastcoastentertainment @dollboxproductions @professionalparty⁠
