Luxury Wedding Florist in Westchester, NY · Ceremony Flowers, Reception Décor & Full Event Design

A wedding is five or six moments guests actually remember, and flowers are in nearly all of them. The wedding ceremony décor is the first: an arch, a chuppah, two grounded pieces under a tree, an aisle that reads from the back row. Then the entrance, where welcome signs and seating charts do their quiet ninety seconds of work and the escort card wall gets photographed more than the arch. Then the doors open on the wedding reception décor, which is the moment couples cry, followed by four hours in which every guest sits eighteen inches from a centerpiece. We design all of it as one thing, in one palette, so the bouquet looks like it was pulled from a centerpiece and the boutonnieres look like they fell off the arch.

Everyone asks, and the honest answer is that three things move the number. Guest count first, because tables are where most of the budget lives and thirty tables is a different job from ten. Scale second: a ten-foot arch under a fourteen-foot ballroom ceiling, a hanging installation over the dance floor, a flower wall at the photo spot. And the flowers themselves, since peonies in June and dahlias in September cost a fraction of the same stems flown in out of season. We'll tell you where to spend and where to save on the first call, and where a decision hangs on a detail a photograph won't settle, we'll mock the piece up, because the cheap time to change your mind is early.

Before you hire anyone, ask to see a whole wedding, not just the flowers. A florist's portfolio shows arrangements; a designer's portfolio shows rooms. Ask whether they'll walk your venue, since the light and the ceiling and the wind decide half the design and nobody can decide it from a photo. Ask whether they'll mock a piece up if you need to see it in person. And ask how they handle the room flip if your ceremony and reception share a space, because forty-five minutes is not long and the answer tells you everything. Then email us at inquiries@letsbloomflorist.com and ask us the same questions. We like them.

Half of what makes a room look expensive isn't flowers. It's the wedding décor rentals under and around them, the candelabras and stands and chargers, and it's the wedding draping and lighting that decides what color the flowers will be at nine o'clock. Blue uplighting turns blush roses gray. Amber makes everything look like candlelight. Because we handle the rentals and coordinate the lighting ourselves, the linen matches the ribbon, the pin spots land on the centerpieces, and the floral installations and flower walls are rigged by people who've hung them before.

Weddings are most of our calendar, not all of it. Engagement party and bridal shower décor is the wedding in miniature: a backdrop, a long table, a bouquet-sized arrangement in every room, built in place at a restaurant in Tarrytown or a backyard in Ardsley. Mitzvah and corporate event décor is the opposite problem, ballroom scale with a theme or a brand to carry, and the same trucks, crews and candle walls do that job too. If it needs a room to look like somebody meant it, we do it.
