Andrea and Robert

Andrea, Robert & Baby Isabella

Andrea had a vision of a Miami style, Great Gatsby themed wedding and graciously left it up to me to interpret her dream! To appeal to her Miami, contemporary side, a classic white color palette with pops of yellow were chosen. Art-Deco inspired furnishings, black & white damasks patterned linens and mirrored tables alluded to the Great Gatsby theme.


Andrea and Robert were married at a beautiful beach estate in Malibu. Yellow rose petals lined the aisle while the white canopy with a suspended chandelier framed the ocean in the distance.


The bride's bouquet was an asymmetrical nosegay of white phalaenopsis orchids, white tea roses and white peonies. The exposed stems with a band of ivory silk ribbon and a silver broach added a touch of vintage detail. The bridesmaid's bouquets were a mix of yellow vanda and cymbidium orchids wrapped with platinum silver ribbon.


Baby Isabella had her own floral wand of yellow vanda and cymbidium orchids. When I had first met Isabella, she wasn't walking yet and Andrea was hoping that she could walk down the aisle during the ceremony. Isabella could walk by the time the wedding date arrived, however she decided to stride the aisle in style....in the arms of Grandma.

The swooped white couch and mirrored table beneath the white canopy alludes to the glamour and decadence of the 1920's.

The bride and groom enjoy their first dance on the black dance floor. Black and white damask linen runs the length of the table while floral arrangements of white hydrangea, white lilies, white roses and white orchids adorn the table.

Pops of yellow also appeared on the dinning table. The white centerpieces were in mirrored vases with votives all around to reflect light onto the table.

The wedding party enjoys themselves under the warm glow of crystal chandeliers that were hung from the trees.

The name of this band escapes me, but they definitely rocked the house! They played songs from the 70's and they looked great in their Miami white suits.
