A Summer Garden Wedding at the View at Lincoln Park in Jersey City

Some weddings stand out not just because they are beautiful, but because of how they feel from the very beginning. This August wedding at The View at Lincoln Park was exactly that. From the first conversation, this bride brought a sense of trust, openness, and excitement that allowed the design to truly shine.

When couples feel comfortable sharing their ideas and trusting the process, the result is always something special.

A Bride Who Trusted the Process

From the start, this bride had a clear sense of what she was drawn to, even if every detail wasn’t fully defined. She loved the idea of mismatched sage green bridesmaid dresses and envisioned pairing them with a soft, summery palette of peaches, oranges, and creams. She wanted the day to feel cohesive, elevated, and reflective of her venue.

We took the time to really listen to her ideas and understand how she wanted the day to feel. From there, we built an entire aesthetic that worked beautifully for both her vision and the space. That foundation of listening created ease. She felt calm and confident moving forward, which made the planning process feel collaborative and enjoyable from start to finish.

Designing for the View at Lincoln Park

The View at Lincoln Park is a newer venue with a modern feel and incredible natural light. Floor to ceiling windows overlook the natural beauty of Lincoln Park, while warm wood beams, sixteen foot ceilings, and rustic chandeliers bring balance and character to the space.

Originally, the ceremony design included a traditional arch. About a month before the wedding, the bride reached out to share that she was feeling drawn to ceremony pillars instead. We immediately told her yes. We loved the idea and were more than happy to build custom pillars and reimagine the ceremony layout.

The finished design didn’t disappoint. The floral pillars framed the light and bright ceremony space beautifully, highlighting the height of the room without overwhelming it. The result felt intentional, airy, and perfectly suited to the architecture of the venue.

A Cohesive Summer Reception Design

For the reception, the room featured a mix of oval and round tables, which allowed us to create variety while keeping the overall look cohesive. On the round tables, we designed lush, garden-style compotes paired with fluted votives. The oval tables were styled with bud vases and candlelight, adding movement and interest throughout the space.

Because this was an August wedding, dahlias were a must. We grow an abundance of dahlias on our own flower farm and also work closely with Sunset View Dahlia Farm in Lafayette, New Jersey, one of the largest specialty dahlia farms in the area. These seasonal blooms were the perfect addition to the peach, orange, and cream palette, bringing texture, depth, and a true end-of-summer feel to the design.

The colors paired beautifully with the hunter green napkins and looked especially striking in the natural light pouring into the space.

Thoughtful Details That Tied It All Together

Cohesion was important to this bride, so we carried the design through every detail. We created custom sage green watercolor table numbers, along with a sage and ivory striped specialty cocktail sign and a matching welcome sign. These pieces helped connect the ceremony and reception visually, ensuring the entire day felt intentional and well thought out.

When florals and paper goods are designed together, the result is a wedding that feels seamless rather than pieced together.

Why Trust Makes All the Difference

This wedding is a perfect example of what can happen when couples feel comfortable, supported, and heard throughout the planning process. The ability to make changes, refine ideas, and collaborate openly leads to a design that feels personal and successful rather than stressful.

At Wild Floweress Design Co., our goal is always to make the process feel approachable and guided. You don’t need to have everything figured out. You just need a team you feel comfortable talking to and trusting along the way.

If you’re planning your wedding and looking for a design partner who listens, adapts, and helps bring clarity to your vision, we would love to hear from you.

Inquire to work together and let’s design something that feels effortless, cohesive, and completely yours.
