Elena and Andrew

When I personally think of the color combination of hot pink, orange and green I honestly cannot help but smile. So when Elena and Andrew decided and agreed on this color theme, everyone here at Petal Productions couldn't wait to create this beautiful wedding for them. Elena and Andrew were married on May 24, 2009 at the beautiful and lush Jungle Island in Miami, Florida (http://www.jungleisland.com/). And, as you can tell, they had that vibrant hot pink, bright orange, and lime green color theme. And I don't think Andrew honestly minded the hot pink, as long as the University of Miami colors (orange and green) were in the mix!

For Elena bridal bouquet, we create a large round bouquet of hot pink and bright orange roses studded with crystals and added small floral lime green buttons into the bouquet to bring all the colors together. We wrapped with bouquet with fabric designed to match Elena's dress so it couldn't clash together. Andrews boutonniere was designed slightly different from all the others, and for his boutonniere we took an bright orange rose with a lime green floral button and studded the button with matching crystals to match Elena's bouquet. The other girls and boys had similar bouquet and boutonnieres, but no crystals. That was reserved for the bride and groom only!

Elena and Andrew had planned for an outdoor ceremony, but unfortunately, mother nature did not agree. So we created a beautiful indoor ceremony with one of Petal Productions favorite chupahs. We took our four tall and square shaped acrylic chupah legs and create a stunning white fabric top with a rim of hot pink hydrangeas. Hanging inside from the chupah top, we hung bright orange and hot fuchsia orchid droplets and hanging strands of crystals. The back wall of fabric placed behind the chupah was also draped with not only white fabric, but assortment of crystals. Hot pink LED lights was all that was needed for this chupah. Along the side of the aisle, we covered out white acrylic pedestals with soft and cascading white organza, and on top of each pedestal we place three white cylinder vases with a ball or soft peach, hot orange and lime green roses. A white satin fabric runner and rose petals added the finishing touch for a beautiful ceremony. But no ceremony would be truly complete without a grand entrance, and that's exactly what we created. We draped the back entrance wall with matching white fabric, and covered our iron gates with the same fabric. The iron gates strategically opened and closed as Andrew, Elena and their bridal party entered the room and walked down the aisle. And Elena grand entrance was a perfect one (as you can clearly see from the picture of the two little boys with the banner)

The ballroom at Jungle Island is extremely neutral to any color combination, and this ballroom looked amazing. Petal Productions draped with entire ceiling with soft white fabric. Each table centerpiece include our clear coned shaped vase with a full round arrangement of peach tone, orange tone, hot pink tone, and lime green toned roses with touches of lime green buttons. Inside each vase, we submerged a fuchsia toned orchids and draped the vases with crystals. Around the base of each vase, we kept it simple and placed an assortment of pillar candles and clusters of votive candles. And to create an extra special touch, underneath each table, we placed a battery operated LED light that glowed in that hot fluorescent pink that Elena really adored.

Elena and Andrew, again a great big Mazel-Tov and we hope to celebrate a bar/bat-mitzvah in the next 13 (or 14) years from now!
