Now, let’s take a look at this ceremony! The Banff Springs is a spectacular venue. It is full of rich, warm tones, ornate details and unique design elements that create a sense of grandeur. The room is fabulous all on its own. It is such a treat to get to add floral elements that enhance the elegance of the hall. We used a lot of rich green foliage in combination with lots of white and light blush blooms to create a look that was both organic and exceptionally romantic.

The beginning of the aisle was framed by two big, billowing arrangements. Full of hydrangea, roses, spray roses, scabiosa, peonies, spirea, and lavish greens. These arrangements were accented with several pillar candles, creating a little ambience.

Above the big archways surrounding the room, at each of the balconies, we designed lush, trailing arrangements overflowing with fresh Italian ruscus, delicate plumosa fern and podocarpus. The impact of the beautiful greenery throughout the room was enchanting! For the two main balconies at the head of the room, in addition to the vining greens, the arrangements included roses, hydrangea, spray roses and peonies. Incorporating these white flowers tied the balcony arrangements in to the floral arch.

And oh, the arch. The pièce de résistance. I feel like the pictures speak for themselves. This extravagant floral piece was magnificent. I love the gentle, organic asymmetrical shape and use of negative space as an alternative to a traditional archway. The arch pieces were absolutely bursting with greenery and flowers, and the effect was nothing short of magical. The size and natural feeling of the design created this grounding weight that drew in your attention, making a stunning back drop for our couple to say their vows.
