Lush Coastal Inspired Wedding Up the Creek Farms

Technically speaking, Desiree and Evan were already married, and their wedding at Up the Creek Farms in Malabar, Florida was actually more of a vow renewal! While living in North Carolina, Desiree fell in love with the coastal, low country feel of the area, and when it came time to plan their wedding knew she wanted to include those vibes. After visiting Up the Creek Farms, the couple knew it was the perfect venue for them! The beautiful oaks and Spanish moss reminded Desiree of North Carolina. The boathouse worked beautifully with all of the coastal details they had planned.

Evan really wanted Desiree to have the wedding of her dream, which for Desiree meant tons of gorgeous, lush flowers. Their florist, Gather Floral Co., created a beautiful greenery circular arch that was able to be re-purposed as the backdrop for their sweetheart table. The bridal and bridesmaids’ bouquets included large air plants, which her best gals were able to have as a keepsake. However, her favorite floral piece was her flower crown. She says, “It made me feel like a goddess. It definitely completed my look and was a great alternative to a veil.”
