“Sometimes since I've been in the garden I've looked up through the trees at the sky and had a strange feeling of being happy, as if something was pushing and drawing in my chest and making me breathe fast." ― Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Secret Garden
Steffi and Bran dreamed of a Secret Garden theme to celebrate their love. This story book vision, the stars, the weather, and a group of talented vendors aligned to create one of the most magical weddings we've had in our meadows.
Camille and the team transformed our humble venue into a garden feast for the eyes, creating a canopy of greenery among our star lights, sumptuous florals framed by summer fruits and vegetables, an unstructured floral arch, and whimsical nests along the isles. In 65 weddings we have never seen a floral team work so hard and so long to get every detail just right.
"The secret garden is open now. Open, and awake, and alive. If you look the right way, you can see that the *whole* world is a garden." ― Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Secret Garden
Steffi looked like a dream in a corseted off-shoulder dress with a long chiffon train, and Bran was dashing in a dark suit and plum-colored tie. Their family and friends were delightful; laughter and chill, jazzy music echoed in our meadows throughout the evening.
On any given day, our meadows have several red-breasted American Robins hopping about (as featured in our business logo), and we'd like to think it was a "robin who showed the way" for Steffi and Bran to schedule a tour at Starlight Meadows. Steffi and Bran, thank you for choosing us; we loved playing a role in tending this beautiful garden of your love.
“And the secret garden bloomed and bloomed and every morning revealed new miracles.” ― Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Secret Garden
