DESIGN NORTH STAR
Colorful romantic garden — with a collected, backyard-dinner-party soul
This wedding should feel warm, personal, and a little unexpected: pastel without being pale, elegant without being stiff, and layered with candlelight, glass, texture, and food that invites people to linger.

Kira & Bailee · The Juliana · 10.10.26
The Juliana gives us the exact ingredients this design wants: indoor/outdoor flow, warm string lights, garden texture, a glassy neutral shell, and the Milk Truck as a natural bar focal point.
Planning anchor: 75 guests · ceremony 5:30 · cocktail 6–7 · reception 7 · pizza buffet 7:15 · late night nachos 9 · strike 11–12
CEREMONY PREVIEW
Soft drape + aisle flowers do the heavy lifting
The ceremony should stay airy and emotional: ivory swagged draping at the doorway/arch, colorful low aisle arrangements, and personal flowers carrying the strongest color story.
Design notes
• 1 arch draping
• 10 low lush mixed-bloom arrangements
• Aisle pieces transition after ceremony
• Bouquets become reception styling after portraits
Open: confirm rehearsal access, reserved family rows, song selections, and final family photo list.

Cocktail Hour
6:00–7:00 PM · drinks, passed apps, music, photos, and guest flow into the reception experience.
Bar plan: primary service through the Milk Truck, with a possible second bar service area TBD. Confirm alcohol menu, ice/cups/garnishes, specialty cocktails, and whether any items are client-provided.
Dinner mood: pizza spread, but make it romantic.
The dinner can feel abundant and styled rather than casual: wood boards, elevated disposables, florals pulled through the buffet, candlelight, and a clear guest flow from cocktail hour into dinner.
Timeline: buffet opens at 7:15 PM. Current working note says Slab & Spice handles set-out/refill; Chef Mary’s team is also referenced for cake service. Confirm final owner for pizza, buffet linen, disposables, cake plates/forks, and bussing.
Reception tables should feel collected, not matched.
Long tables: 9 ceremony aisle arrangements transition to the rectangle tables, supported by bud vases, lamps, tapers, floating/pillar candles, napkins, and mixed colored glass. Cocktail tables receive linen + bud vase moments.
Complimentary décor access: table lamp candles, LED tapers + holders, bud vases, floral pots, floating and pillar candles, signage, welcome/selfie mirror, greenery wall, green velvet couch, accent tables, dessert stands, frames, baskets, and more.

LIVE PREVIEW LINK PROMPT
Prompt to create the private Lily in June wedding preview page
Create a private wedding preview landing page for Lily in June clients Kira & Bailee for their 10/10/26 wedding at The Juliana. The tone should feel warm, refined, personal, romantic, and organized — like a design-meeting preview from their planner and floral designer.
Include sections: Overview, The Vibe, Venue Flow, Ceremony Preview, Cocktail Hour + Milk Truck Bar, Pizza Spread Dinner, Reception + Table Design, Floral & Décor Scope, Vendor Team, Timeline Snapshot, Open Decisions, and Next Steps.
Design direction: colorful romantic garden dinner party with soft ivory draping, muted-but-lively florals, colored glass, lamps, tapers, floating candles, string lights, lounge seating, vintage/collected accents, and a casual-elevated pizza dinner.
Use the event facts: 75 guests, The Juliana, ceremony 5:30 PM, cocktail hour 6–7 PM, reception 7 PM, pizza buffet 7:15 PM, late-night nachos 9 PM, strike 11 PM–12 AM. Lily in June is handling florals, décor, and coordination.
Make it client-friendly and beautiful, not overly technical. Include a final checklist of confirmations needed before the final timeline is issued.
DESIGN MEETING AGENDA
What we’ll decide together
1. Approve the visual direction
2. Confirm ceremony and reception décor moments
3. Talk through pizza, bar, and guest flow
4. Confirm open questions by vendor
5. Assign next-step tasks and deadlines
The goal: everyone can picture the day, understand the flow, and know what needs to happen next.
