I think it is important you all know I have a thing for redheads. It's the hair color I always wished I had. And Rachel's hair is straight out of a Disney movie. Alright done with that sidebar. I loved that this couple wasn't afraid of color for their wedding and kept requesting we go more rich with their colors. Deep colors complimented with vibrant hues is always a challenge we love to take on.

Feast your eyes on what I am calling Mega-Arch. Seriously though, this thing is MASSIVE. Initially, I was planning to do a corner spray piece for the arch but upon arrival decided we needed to ground it and draw the scale in a bit. Having Jurassic park size palm fronds was the key element in the design here, allowing the smaller flowers to have a smaller backdrop to stand against. It is easy to try and overdo it when working with an arch this size but sometimes it just makes sense to create a larger impact by showing restraint in both palette and size because sometimes there is no competeing with an arch this size.
