Emma and Reece’s wedding at Green Acres Event Center in Eden Prairie, MN, was nothing short of magical. Set in a beautifully restored barn, their celebration blended rustic charm with romantic elegance, creating an unforgettable atmosphere for their closest family and friends.
Dreamy Summer Garden Florals
For their floral vision, Emma and Reece embraced the beauty of seasonal Minnesota blooms in soft summer pastels, evoking a delicate, garden-inspired feel. Their bouquets featured a lush mix of roses, stock, delphinium, baby’s breath, and fragrant eucalyptus, adding both texture and elegance.
To create a breathtaking ceremony space, florals atop tall gold stands lined the aisle, framing the couple as they exchanged vows. These arrangements were later repurposed as centerpieces for the reception, ensuring every floral detail was beautifully showcased throughout the day.
A Reception Filled with Candlelit Romance
Inside the reception, the floral design continued to shine. Tablescapes featured a mix of centerpiece styles to add depth and interest. Some tables were adorned with cylinder vases of varying heights holding elegant taper candles, surrounded by lush greenery and delicate blooms, while others showcased charming bud vases paired with candlelight, creating a warm, intimate glow.
The bride and bridesmaids’ bouquets found a second life at the head table, nestled among flickering candles, enhancing the romantic ambiance as the couple celebrated with their loved ones.
A Wedding to Remember
From the soft pastel florals to the candlelit reception, every detail of Emma and Reece’s wedding reflected their love story—timeless, romantic, and full of warmth. It was an honor to bring their floral vision to life and be a part of such a beautiful celebration.


“Dear Marah,
Even my most wonderful dreams didn't prepare me for the stunning elegance you would help create for Emma's wedding. The flowers were absolutely gorgeous! From our first call, through every email and text, and with every request, you captured Emma's vision of her dream wedding. Thank you for bringing her dream to life.
Flowers bring so much joy, and you evoke that joy through your creations. You captured the essence of Emma, Reece, and their love story in every special touch. From the incredible bouquets, to the beautiful gold stands and arrangements on top, to the precious satin ribbon bows on each aisle, to the stunning bud vases and candles on the mirror tile centerpieces, the ceremony and dinner party were elegant, sophisticated, stylish, and gorgeous. Thank you for all that you did to make this day beautiful and the most wonderful day for all. I wish you could see how I feel in my heart.
So many family members and friends commented at the wedding and in the following days that the flowers were the most beautiful they had ever seen! The wedding was a destination wedding for all who attended. Our family members and friends traveled from all over the country for the wedding. Emma wanted a Southern wedding in the Midwest, and it was so perfect!
Ava is absolutely beautiful and precious. Treasure every moment with her. Before you know it, she will be the bride.
I can't effectively express the extent of my gratitude in words in an email. I'm sending hugs from a distance.
Thank you for everything! I hope many brides in the future allow Marah Cole Designs to make their dream wedding a reality!Kristin ~ Mother of Bride
