Hydrangea and Peony Ceremony Altar Accent

Lauren and Brendan chose St. Joseph's Roman Catholic Church as their ceremony space for a few reasons. "Brendan's mother has worked there for many years, and it was very important for us to be married in a place we had such strong ties to," Lauren says. They added only a few simple touches to the church's vaulted ceilings and whimsical curved arches. Two of the bridal party's pink rose and peony bouquets were set along the altar as Lauren's white hydrangea bouquet was set near them as the only decor.
