Dual-Ceremony Wedding at The Broadmoor

There are weddings, and then there are celebrations so breathtaking they leave an everlasting mark on everyone involved. The wedding we recently had the pleasure of designing floral arrangements for at The Broadmoor, alongside the incredibly talented team at A Charming Fete from Ohio, was undoubtedly one of those unforgettable experiences.

Our couple began their day with a traditional Indian wedding ceremony set against the majestic backdrop of the Broadmoor’s west lawn. The Mandap, the focal point of this ceremony, was covered in cascading blooms of purples and blues with vivid touches of hot pink—perfectly complementing the bride’s vibrant Indian ceremony gown. The colorful florals infused the space with energy and joy, setting the tone for what was to be a day full of love, laughter, and beauty.

As the Indian ceremony came to a close, we were thrilled to help transform the west lawn into an entirely new space for the afternoon white-dress ceremony. For this second vow exchange, we created a lush floral arch adorned with radiant purple blooms that framed the couple perfectly. The aisle was lined with a stunning collection of purple florals, with whimsical pops of large allium adding a playful touch to the setting. These fun, spherical blooms brought a sense of joy and lightness to an otherwise elegant and classic design, reflecting the couple’s vibrant personalities.

The bridesmaids, dressed in lovely mauve floor-length dresses, carried bouquets in shades of purple and champagne. Their bouquets were filled with garden roses, ranunculus, tweedia, and delicate clematis, blending seamlessly into the overall aesthetic of the day. These bouquets provided a softer contrast against the bold colors of the earlier ceremony, creating a beautiful harmony between the two celebrations.

Once the couple exchanged vows again in the afternoon, guests gathered for cocktails and dinner on the stunning Broadmoor Mountain View Terrace. We wanted this space to feel fresh, whimsical, and intimate, so we draped the terrace’s iron chandeliers with cascading blooms of delphinium and wisteria in shades of blue and purple. These florals not only softened the space but brought a garden feel, giving the reception an airy and enchanting ambiance.

The long tables, covered in mauve shantung linens, were adorned with arrangements of blooms in purples and blues, accented by taper candles in soft shades of light blue and ivory. The soft flickering of candlelight added a romantic glow to the room, while the lush arrangements created an atmosphere of opulence and celebration. One of the most striking features was the Broadmoor’s large fireplace, which we topped with a bountiful floral arrangement in the wedding’s color palette, adding a touch of extra elegance and grandeur to the space.

As the evening unfolded, the couple and their guests danced the night away around the Broadmoor's iconic fountain, which we adorned with florals that cascaded down its sides, creating a stunning focal point for the evening’s celebrations. The flicker of lights, combined with the lush florals, transformed the terrace into a whimsical, romantic oasis.

It was truly an honor to be part of such a magical day. Working with A Charming Fete and bringing this couple’s vision to life was an experience we will always cherish. Every petal, bloom, and arrangement was a reflection of their unique love story, and we couldn’t be happier to have played a role in their unforgettable celebration.

Layers of Lovely Floral Design is always delighted to create floral magic at a location as iconic and breathtaking as The Broadmoor, and this wedding will undoubtedly be one that stays close to our hearts for years to come.
