Staci and Alan

Martina Comey from M&L Occasions (http://www.mandloccasions.com/) and Petal Productions came together to create an extremely beautiful and fairy tale wedding for Staci and Alan at the Aventura Turnberry Fairmont Hotel (http://www.fairmont.com/Turnberryisle). Despite the weather threatening throughout the day, Staci and Alan had nothing to worry about with Martina, the Petal Production team and Annette Winkler (lead coordinator and head of catering at the Turnberry Fairmont).

Staci was one of those brides that could have gotten married in jeans and cotton shirt and still look gorgeous. After months of looking for a make up artist, Staci found the perfect person for her, and really looked like the picture perfect bride. Staci looked stunning in her beautiful wedding dress. The beading and design fit her perfectly! For her bridal bouquet, we created a round bouquet of ivory roses, white peonies, and touches of stephanotis studded with pearls. Alan wore a boutonniere of stephanotis that was designed to match Staci's bridal bouquet.

Staci and Alan said their "I do's" underneath one of my favorite chupahs. This chupah was placed on top of a covered stage and consisted of the curly willow design mixed with thick pieces of ghost wood that was placed for the chupah top. To further enhance the chupah, we added thick white floral clusters in the same floral theme as the rest of the wedding, and we also placed amber up lights that really just illuminated the chupah. Down the aisle, we placed a white runner with white petals, and we placed our unique white acrylic boxes that were filled with white hydrangeas, white dendrobium orchids and white peonies. Each box had an explosion of curly willow branches that pulled the entire look for the ceremony together.

The ballroom was absolutely spectacular. There is something so clean and elegant about all white weddings, it's hard not to fall in love with all white wedding designs. Staci choose her floral arrangements with our clarinet vase dripping with strands of crystals and a free formed white floral arrangement of white flowers. These flowers included white hydrangeas, white cymbidium orchids, white peonies, white tulips and so many more stunning white flowers. Around the base we kept things a little bit more modern, and placed an assortment of glass vases with a monochromatic arrangement of white flowers designed at slight angles. Of course no table would be complete without brightly lit candles! The table linens where the white pleated organza provided by Nuage Designs.

Because the ballroom at Turnberry Fairmont is so beautiful, all that was needed was a white wall of fabric behind the band (just to block the kitchen doors) and amber up lights! Staci and Alan did decide on having pieces of lounge furniture placed around the dance floor, which was great for their guest to sit on as they had their first dance as man and wife.

A BIG thank you to Ruben from Senderey Video Productions (http://www.sendereyvideo.com/) for a sneak peak at their wedding video highlights! Click on this link: http://vimeo.com/4739342 to watch!
