Taylor and John’s Wedding at The Columns

A St. Charles Avenue wedding at one of New Orleans’ most storied hotels — a couple wanting something unmistakably editorial, not a standard hotel reception. The concept Texture over color. A late-season palette of deep burgundy, dried amaranthus, and blush hydrangea, layered with pampas grass and dried botanicals for movement and depth — arrangements built to feel foraged and gathered rather than florist-assembled. Brass table lamps replaced candlelight entirely, paired with jewel-toned glassware in green, amber, and blue against crisp white linen and burgundy runners. The execution A long communal tablescape across The Columns’ iconic gallery porch, anchored by a cascading floral installation built directly into the entrance staircase — full of dried grasses, moss, and textural blooms spilling down the historic steps toward St. Charles Avenue. The result One of the most editorial builds in the studio’s portfolio — the kind of design that reads as art direction first, wedding florals second.
