We’ve had the pleasure of working with couples to create unforgettable displays that set the scene for saying “I Do.” And when it comes to designing a wedding arch, anything goes in terms of shape, materials, and floral styling.

Sara looks back and says, “There were so many details we included that meant a lot to us. Music was a big one.

Seeded eucalyptus, salal greenery and ruscus added a natural touch to the display.
