Decor and Florals

Show up, party, and ride off into the sunset. No shopping, storing, burning

your fingers on a hot glue gun, setting up, or cleaning up your own

decorations. Sounds like a dream come true, but its more than that its a life

saver.

The Eden is skilled in event design and fresh floral arrangements. Work one

on one with our in house team to make your wedding decor dreams come true.

From back drops to table runners the sky is the limit.

We want to look through your pinterest boards, talk about your inspirations,

and then create customized designs just for you.

How Does Decor

Services Work?

Of course our decor is optional.

We welcome all designers and

floristes. However we love

working with you and want to

reflect your personalities and

style in the day you will

always remember.

Choose to use our decor no less

than 90 days before the event

and give us a call to schedule a

consultation. We will dive into

your visions and create timeless

pieces for your wedding.

If you plan on tackling your

own decor please know that we

require all candles to be in a

glass or fire safe container

higher than the flame and we

do not allow holes in the wall.

Please do not hang items from

the ceiling, draping, or

chandeliers. Also, refrain from

table confetti and confetti

cannons.

Decor Portfolio

The Eden provides a custom decor experience. Everything is designed just for you.

That means we can't fit everyone's style and decor into a package. Each piece or

design is dependent on size, florals, and design. We love Pinterest but, you don't

want your wedding to be a replica, you want it to be uniquely you.

Below is a list of traditional designs and pieces. But, we love to be creative and

would love to design unique features.

- Fresh Bouquets, Boutineers, and Corsages'

- Centerpieces

- Table Settings

- Backdrops

- Ceremony Arches & Arch Flowers

- Isle Markers

-Ceremony Alter Arrangements

- Custom Signs

- Cake Stands and Dessert Displays

Why The Eden?

We could go on

and on...

But, the biggest reason is because we cry right along with the

families at each ceremony. We answer those late night emails

of the paniced bride. We notice the details and correct any

issues without ANYONE ever knowing there was an issue,

especially our couples.

We could say The Eden is the most beautiful, classic,

romantic, and charming venue in the area. We could say

that you would be supporting a local family owned business

operated by a 95% female staff.

But all that means nothing without our outstanding service

we provide to each and every one of our couples. The most

important aspect is the service you receive when you enter in

as not only our client but as our family. We care about you

and your family as if you were our own.

Don't take our word for it. Take the word of our previous

clients and now Eden family.
