A magical garden celebration out in The Berkshires.... From day one of planning I knew this wedding would be an absolute stunner. Filled with beautiful details that the couple collaborated on. From the champagne reception in the courtyard of the Edith Wharton Estate to the intimate and floral filled garden ceremony, and finally the decadent dinner underneath the stars. This was a wedding meant to remembered for all time! For this wedding we worked tirelessly on a fully covered chuppah to surround the couple in elegance, while carrying the elegant garden feel through to the champagne reception. Guests were then led into the tent with hanging greens between chandeliers, and lush tablescapes … [Read more...]
The Liberty Hotel – Blush and Burgundy Elegance
The Liberty Hotel - Blush and Burgundy Elegance This beautiful fall wedding at The Liberty Hotel in Boston was such a treat to design for. The client loved the look of hanging, draping florals, but due to the logistics, we weren't able to suspend anything from the ceiling...enter in a lot of trust, problem solving, and a total showstopper of a floral showcase when guests entered the ballroom. A big thank you to The Liberty Hotel, for always being an amazing venue and host for our floral designs, and to Todd Wilson Images, for capturing this magical day! … [Read more...]
Wequassett Resort
Poppy Floral teamed up with the talented LoLo Event Design to create a one of a kind, delightfully detailed wedding day for Kristen & Noah.

There wasn't a single space that didn't get the special treatment, including the outside patio where we strung over 400 roses to swing in the ocean breeze. One of our favorite features of … [Read more...]
Boston Public Library
We were so excited to step into one of Boston's most iconic landmarks to bring Katie & Julian's vision to life. From the beginning the bride knew she wanted lots of colors and unique touches. We took her suggestion of copper touches and had a blast creating a one of king copper pipe arch for the ceremony, customizing a copper pipe escort card installation, and detailing her reception tables with garlands featuring hand-cut copper leaves. It all came together for a memorable evening filled with beautiful Poppy Floral touches. Images by: Ashley O'Dell Photography … [Read more...]

Chatham Bars Inn
For this seaside wedding at The Chatham Bars Inn, rich romantic color was draped over every aspect of the day. We loved taking the color palette and floral pattern of the bridesmaid dresses and running with it! The bride's bouquet became almost an exact match for the dress pattern, while the bridesmaids carried complimentary white bouquets to accent. We were also quite excited to dress up the 'Best Dog'. Some of our favorite details of this wedding include the hanging florals wreaths off the ballroom chandeliers, and individual bud vases for the couple's escort cards.

Vermont Countryside
We'll gladly escape the city when it means heading north to Vermont for a beautiful October wedding. Our bride was a big sunflower fan, so we brought them into her wedding in a big way! The tented reception featured large arrangements of sunflowers, accenting by traditionally detailed centerpieces that pulled in the vibrant yellow in a unique way, followed by tables of floating candles and lush hydrangea arrangements. A special thank you to our friends at LoLo Event Design for styling the amazing tables and linens, and custom lighting patterns seen throughout. Images by: Nathan Peel Photography … [Read more...]
Harvard University
Mia & Glenn married just steps away from where they first met, tying the knot in the Knafel Center at Harvard University. What was once an old gym, the room became transformed by over 1,500 red roses in dramatic displays down their long reception tables. We loved the use of a singular flower to create an incredible statement throughout the event, showing that the simplest of ideas, when well executed, create a stunning effect.
