Lush Hydrangeas, Simple Elegant Décor in Wedding day at Parties on the Terrace

Emilie Schwartz and Eli Hofherr tied the knot in a lush outdoor celebration at Parties on the Terrace. Every tiny detail of the celebration was carefully thought out, even matching the menus and stationery to the textures and colors of the linens. The verdant, leafy green floral arrangements created bursts of color amid the elegant venue. The floral arch, which served as a charming backdrop to Emilie and Eli’s vows, was constructed at the last minute when rain forced the ceremony to the covered terrace. A highlight of the celebration was the pre-ceremony photo shoot with the couple’s beloved dogs. Emilie had an outfit change in the middle of the dayevening switching into her mother’s wedding dress, which had been adjusted and modernized to fit her daughter. Other romantic and touching moments included the “breaking of the glass” tradition—even though the couple is not religious, they wanted to incorporate a Jewish tradition to honor the bride’s father’s family. The celebrations concluded with a sparkler send-off, and the bride opted to have her bouquet professionally preserved, immortalizing the happy memories of the special day.
