stage, we placed a modern single seated couch for Marrisa with additional seating of regular ballroom chairs. The wall behind the stage was a wall of white fabric dripping with strands of crystals. Hot pink up lights were placed behind to illuminate the area.
The second element to Marissa and Daniel’s wedding was the Chupah and everyone that walked in gasped in complete awe. Each chupah leg consisted of a wrought iron structure designed to resemble a tree. Each chupah leg
was then completely covered orchids and a base arrangement of white hydrangeas. To keep with Chupah traditions, we placed a cascading organza fabric and suspended the fabric in the center of the chupah. Behind the chupah we placed a free standing wall of white fabric and hung orchid blooms to enhance the wall. Special up lights were placed on the chupah and along the back wall, as well as some intelligent lighting that also include a custom gobo of Marissa and Daniel’s monogram. Down the aisle an extra long and custom white carpet runner with white rose petals on the side and custom white boxes were placed and completely filled with white hydrangeas and white dendrobium orchids. Every 6 feet, we placed a tall cylinder glass vase with a brightly lit candle to illuminate the aisle. And the last but very not least detail of this Chupah area consisted of the entrance wall of white fabric that was decorated with white dendrobium orchid leis, and opened and closed as Marissa, Daniel, and their wedding party began to walk down the aisle.
No wedding ceremony would be complete without the bridal bouquet and other
personal flowers. Each girl, carried a bouquet of white roses and hot pink mokara orchids wrapped in white ribbon with hot pink ribbon as an accent and wrapped
around in the ballet slipper design. Marissa’s bridal bouquet was a large, clean and elegant bouquet of white roses, white hydrangeas and white mini calla lilies wrapped in white ribbon and studded with pearls.
The place card table consisted of two rectangle table with a round table placed between the two.
The two rectangle tables were embellished with hot pink roses topped with a custom glass table top where the place card envelopes were placed. The center table was decorated with a spiral stand also covered in hot flowers that included hot pink roses, hot pink peonies, hot pink vanda orchids, hot pink hydrangeas, and hot pink phalenopsis orchids (phew!).
The Loews pulled back the air walls that divided the grand ballroom into the three sections needed for the wedding. As the air walls were pulled back, the chupah was broken down and
each leg was placed as an individual tree on both sides of the dance floor and either side of the band stage. The tables were pulled out of the third section of the ballroom were they had been hidden and placed in their designated area for the reception dinner. Hence, this is where the third and final element to Marissa and Daniel’s dream wedding comes to play. Each table centerpiece was designed to match the entire theme of the wedding. The tables alternated between our wrought iron tree-like structures completely covered in wire grass and decorated with either dendrobium orchids or white phalenopsis orchids. Each "tree" sat on a bed of white hydrangeas and cylinder glass vases filled with an assortment of pillar candles. Once the tables were in their place, we placed a special wireless LED light that illuminated the tables from within. For Marissa and Daniel’s sweet heart table, we placed a cascading arrangement of only white phalenopsis orchids and brightly lit candles. A special LED light was also placed underneath their table.
Placed along the center of the dance floor we placed a mechitzah that was designed for Marissa and Daniel with an extremely modern concept. The mechitzah was divided into four parts and each section was built identically the same. The top and bottom parts of the structure were completely covered in white hydrangeas and white dendrobium orchids. Connecting the top and bottom were white cymbidium orchid blooms strung with very thin silver wiring to give the impression that the orchid blooms where floating in midair. Intelligent lighting changed throughout the evening with the music that was played by their band, and custom gobo’s were placed around the ballroom. Towards the end of the evening, as the guest left to go home after a wild night of dancing, a custom gobo read “Thank you for joining us, Marissa and Daniel”

Marissa’s dream wedding culminated in one spectacular evening of fine wine, amazing cuisine, addictive music and incomparable floral décor. A large and very special mazel-tov to not only the bride and groom but their parents and family as well!
