Creating an Unforgettable Clara Joyce Flowers Wedding Experience<\/span><\/h2>\n

George and I love our passions, projects, and things (we’re collectors) and happen to live on my cut flower farm. I always knew that I wanted to get married on the farm ground that I grew up on, and I wanted to make sure that our design styles and selections were unique, fun, intentional and created an experience for our guests. We went into planning<\/span><\/a> with the mindset of keeping color, lushness, oddities, and uniquities at the forefront of what we were creating—choices like lush color-forward dahlias and texture-rich <\/span>florals<\/span><\/a> kept the visual intrigue ever-present. Our collection of vintage furniture pieces, antique blue willow dishware, and pre-war aviary taxidermy were all incorporated to add layers to the event.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

How Music and Flowers Set the Stage for Their Ceremony<\/span><\/h2>\n

George works in the classical music industry and is ever surrounded by incredibly talented musicians. A few of his good Judy’s entertained our guests pre- and post-ceremony, which added so much to our wedding experience. I work in the floral, wedding, and event industries and was able to curate a tremendous support team of designers and flower growers to pull this special event off. Our ceremony<\/span><\/a> was outdoors, positioned in a clearing among the rows of flowers. Our grounds and design team brought in tree saplings to provide shade for our guests, grew hundreds of hanging Boston ferns to be suspended over our guests during dinner, designed thousands and thousands of floral stems, and jumped in at any moment to make the day so special.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

 Personal Details That Made Their Big Day Special to Them<\/span><\/h2>\n

Our wedding day was perfect, culminating in years spent collecting meaningful elements, collaborating with our vendors<\/span><\/a>, crafting every detail carefully, and seeing everything come together in a beautiful crescendo, exceeding our wildest dreams. Some highlights included our unique escort card bud vase wall, where guests could find their seats and take home a floral-filled bud vase as a keepsake. Another cherished touch was the vintage blue willow dishware, a nod to my family’s tradition of dining on these special plates during memorable occasions. George, myself, and our families scoured the country to find authentic pieces, and seeing our guests dine on these cherished patterns was incredibly meaningful. These personal touches made our day unforgettable, reflecting who we are and what we love as a couple.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Bud VaseWedding Favors That Doubled As Decor<\/span><\/h2>\n

Our wedding favors<\/span><\/a> were part of the design and interactive element of the day. After our guests were done walking the endless rows of blooming dahlias, they made their way to our <\/span>reception<\/span><\/a> greenhouse and were welcomed by a wall covered in individual bud vases. Each bud vase had a guest’s name and table number on it. They took those bud vases with them to their table setting, adding to the decor, and also got to take that home with them at the end of the night.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n
