Crystal Bridges
Artful, Vibrant & Sculptural

An art-forward floral installation with sculptural ceremony columns, painterly color, and modern after-dark moments.

This wedding at Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art was designed like a curated exhibit—each floral moment treated as its own piece of work, but all tied together through color, texture, and composition. Instead of “wedding florals,” the goal was living artwork: saturated color placed intentionally (like brushstrokes), sculptural shapes, and bloom coverage that felt immersive without feeling busy.

The Ceremony

Sculptural Floral Columns, Built Like an Installation

For the ceremony, we created two towering floral columns that framed the couple like a gallery-worthy statement. These weren’t just tall arrangements—they were vertical floral compositions, layered for depth and designed to read from across the room and in close-up photos.

We paired them with oversized white urn arrangements to anchor the aisle and bring scale to the space in a clean, modern way. The overall effect was dramatic but refined: an art installation you could get married inside of.

The Reception

Still-Life Centerpieces with Color Rhythm

Reception florals were designed like tabletop still lifes—each arrangement built with intention and negative space, so every bloom and shape had a purpose. We kept the palette saturated and warm, then repeated it across the room in a way that felt cohesive, not copy/paste.

Personal FLorals

Fashion Energy, Museum Palette

The bridal bouquet stayed true to the installation work—lush, dramatic, and artful, with warm saturated tones and texture that photographed beautifully against a clean white dress. Bridesmaid florals held the same color story so the full wedding palette stayed cohesive in portraits.

The Lounge + After Party

Modern, Graphic Florals in Low Light

As the night shifted into party mode, the florals got punchier and more graphic—especially anthurium-forward moments that brought a modern, sculptural edge. These pieces were designed to hold their shape and read strongly in moody lighting, adding that after-dark “fashion show” energy without losing the floral richness.
