Nicole and John’s St. Louis Art Museum wedding went seamlessly from “I do” to let’s celebrate! On the South Terrace, guests mingled beneath colorful sun umbrellas, cocktails and passed bites in hand, with Forest Park views as the backdrop. Add custom sunglasses, spring color, and a little sunshine, and cocktail hour became its own unforgettable moment.

We’re thrilled to join WIPA and celebrate the launch of its St. Louis chapter alongside an inspiring community of wedding and event professionals. As the floral sponsor for WIPA’s inaugural meeting, we leaned into a “Gateway of the West” design concept—blending elevated western textures, thoughtful color, and organic florals. From creative exploration to meaningful connection, this evening was a beautiful reminder of why education, collaboration, and storytelling through design matter so much to us.

While Ashley and Devon chose a really chic and lead design for their wedding, it was “music [that was] the ultimate centerpiece of the day.” In classic rock n’roll style, the evening was full of musical talent, including performances by Devon himself as well as several of his friends, including Alex Orbison (son of Roy Orbison), Duane Betts (son of Dickey Betts of The Allman Brothers Band), JD Simo (Singer-songwriter) and Devon’s sons, Jimmy Hall and Orion Gregory Allman.

I wanted my guest's experience to be warm, comfortable and fun. I imagined our guests could dance to our amazing band but could also catch up by one of the fireplaces or at the table under candlelight and the amazing hedge centerpieces.
