Last weekend, the picturesque town of Cape May, New Jersey, served as the perfect backdrop for a breathtaking wedding that will be remembered for years to come. With its historic Victorian architecture, sandy beaches, and romantic sunsets, Cape May provided an enchanting setting for the celebration of love. We loved working with our team of vendors, including Cape May Florist, a professional team with knowledge of every Cape May venue. They offered their expertise to the groom’s mother, who ordered the chuppah adorned in stunning white hydrangeas and garden roses.
“I was naturally nervous as it was my only son’s wedding. I wanted to be sure everything was perfect. The team at Cape May Florist took my every concern and offered suggestions to keep me relaxed day of. I was so happy with the end result and highly recommend them for a wedding in Cape May.” - Donna G.
