We drew inspiration from its beauty and history to give the wedding an elegant touch.“AHA” DESIGN MOMENT: The wedding venue was the ruins of the first European settlement on the Pacific Coast of the Americas. In 1671, the city was destroyed by an attack led by the English pirate Henry Morgan, and it was never rebuilt. The remains of the old city were abandoned for more than two centuries. Currently, the Panama Viejo Historical Monument Complex covers around 28 hectares that include the ruins of some of the most important buildings of the Colonial period, as well as the archaeological traces of the pre-Hispanic and Colonial periods. The history of this site inspired our “aha”moment.IMG_4182MOST UNIQUE DESIGN ELEMENT: We used oversized initials of the bride and groom to personalize the wedding; the letters lit up at night.COLOR PALETTE: Navy, white, and silverBUDGET: $30,000STAFF HOURS: 40 plusPLANNING TIME: Five monthsCLIENT MEETINGS: Four meetings and numerous callsSET UP/STRIKE DETAILS: There was roughly 12 hours of setup for the floral.REVENUE BREAKDOWN: 100% full floral designerBIGGEST CHALLENGE: The biggest challenge in making an outdoor wedding is the weather.
