We love turning an empty industrial space into a romantic atmosphere for a client’s wedding. The Black Pearl on the Columbia is the perfect clean slate to design in - tons of natural light, modern and minimal. My bride, Anna, wanted muted tones, romantic & lush flowers for her wedding day.

I usually have at least one favorite element from each wedding, but this wedding was full of the cutest details. One of my favorite things were the fluffy clouds of babies breath that we designed down the aisle. We opted to break them up with clusters of chunky wax candles to add a romantic glow to the space. LOVE!

And if you guys have been around for a while, you KNOW I love a good sweetheart table. Anna & David’s table was a romantic garden dream dinner for two! I love setting up sweetheart tables, and I always remind my clients that this will be their FIRST dinner together as husband & wife, so we should strive to make it as intimate and romantic as we can! We repurposed the ceremony floral arch behind their table as well, completely surrounding them with gorgeous florals!
