Mary Allison and Jeff tied the knot in the elegantly spacious arena of The Civic Theater in New Orleans on December 2, 2023. Flawlessly planned and executed by Amanda Price and her team, the feeling inside the theater was romantic, warm and classic.
Mary Allison's bouquet was made of all white blooms with just a touch of greenery. The focal point was a peony, cradled by White O'Hara garden roses, white ranunculus and white majolica spray roses. The tips of white stock and variegated mini pittosporum peaking out provided a refined texture, balancing out the large white blooms.
Each bridesmaid carried a petite version of Mary Allison's bouquet, perfectly complimenting their teal dresses.
A closer look at the welcoming sign in table:
Our design for the ceremony was simple and purposeful. We wanted to celebrate the theater's architecture while keeping Mary Allison and Jeff the main focal point. Adding the white pedestals underneath the tall, full arrangements in front of the black curtain backdrop tastefully framed the couple and officiant despite the dramatically tall ceilings. We lined the aisle with candle clusters to bring a more intimate feel to the vast setting.
The warmth and intimacy carried through to the reception space as we brought together tall arrangements on the round tables and a pair of low arrangements surrounded by tapers, floating candles and tabletop cylinders for the banquet tables. Hanging votives in glass ornaments added whimsy to the tall arrangements while also visually bringing the eye up toward the flowers away from the candle cluster below. Special thanks to Tasha Rae Photography for capturing the beauty and finesse of the candlelit room.
