Modern Elegance at Signia by Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek

Wedding

Dec 15

From the very beginning, Karina and Mark envisioned a wedding day that felt modern, elevated, and beautifully refined — with all-white florals setting the tone for a celebration full of modern elegance. From a sacred church ceremony to a grand ballroom reception, every floral detail was thoughtfully designed to feel lush, intentional, and unforgettable.

Their day began at the stunning Saint Anthony Coptic Orthodox Church in Maitland, Florida, where the ceremony was nothing short of breathtaking. As guests arrived, they were welcomed by lush floral arrangements placed at the start of the aisle, creating an elegant focal point and setting the mood for what was to come. Each pew was adorned with soft, fluffy tulle pew markers, accented with delicate touches of white florals and greenery — romantic, classic, and perfectly balanced.

At the altar, the design truly came to life. A large, rounded floral arch, overflowing with all-white blooms, framed Karina and Mark as they exchanged vows. Designed to sit gracefully over their two ceremonial seats, the arch added softness and grandeur without overpowering the sacred space.

Karina’s bouquet perfectly reflected her modern bridal style. Her all-white bouquet featured a luxurious mix of roses, ranunculus, tulips, campanula, and lisianthus, finished with bleached white Italian ruscus for a clean, contemporary twist. The texture and movement of the bouquet made it feel effortlessly elegant. Her bridesmaids carried simpler, smaller versions of her bouquet — cohesive, refined, and perfectly complementary.

Following the ceremony, the celebration continued at the Signia by Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek, and so did one of our favorite design elements — the floral arch. Repurposed for the reception, the lush arch was moved onto the ballroom stage to sit behind the sweetheart table. Paired with two curved cherry blossom trees, it created a show-stopping backdrop that felt grand, romantic, and incredibly luxurious.

The ballroom reception was truly a statement. Centerpieces varied throughout the space, creating visual interest while maintaining a cohesive all-white palette. Some tables featured tall, airy elevated centerpieces made with baby’s breath, roses, and silk cherry blossom branches, accented with hanging glass globes filled with glowing tea lights. Other tables showcased clear modern candelabras, grounded with lush floral bases for a clean yet dramatic look or Fluffy silk wisteria trees. Long tables were adorned with elevated floral bridges, running gracefully over the length of the table and creating an immersive, garden-meets-modern feel.

Every element of Karina and Mark’s wedding was thoughtfully layered — lush but not overwhelming, modern yet timeless. From church to ballroom, their all-white floral design transformed each space into something truly magical. A perfect reflection of their love story and a beautiful example of modern elegance done right.
