A timeless Boston Public Library wedding layered in lush, abundant greenery with vibrant pops of citrus woven throughout for a fresh, modern twist.

For the ceremony, large statement urns overflowed with layered greenery accented by delicate citrus blossoms, bringing brightness and texture to the classic stone backdrop. The overall design felt refined yet alive — a perfect balance of iconic Boston elegance and natural, citrus-kissed romance.

Long tables were dressed in flowing green garlands that ran the full length of each setting, creating an organic, garden-inspired feel beneath the historic architecture of Bates Hall.

Kim and Brian were married on a crisp Boston fall afternoon. The entire day felt quintessentially Back Bay in October. The historic elegance of the Lenox — rich wood, glowing candlelight, and classic Boston charm — created the perfect backdrop for a fall palette that felt both romantic and bold.

The reception at The Lenox Hotel was designed in deep, juicy berry tones inspired by the inside and outside of a ripe fig, layered with pops of coral peach and soft dusty rose for warmth and contrast. Tables were styled with accents of leather and green velvet, adding texture and depth against lush florals and abundant fruit details. Pears, figs, and cascading grapes were woven throughout the design, bringing a moody harvest feel that echoed the season and elevated the overall aesthetic.
