Corey & Hendrik: Timeless Elegance, Classic New York

Corey and Hendrik Wedding – Bride and Groom Portrait Bouquet – Private Club – Raegan Buckley

Hendrik first noticed Corey during their sophomore year at the University of Oklahoma, where they were both studying the same major. Even though he made a point of catching her name during attendance call, he didn’t work up the nerve to ask her out until the last semester of senior year. “We started dating just about three months before graduation,” Corey remembers. “Hendrik had plans to move back to Connecticut for his job, and I was moving to Dallas for mine, but we both fell hard, fast and we were determined to make it work.” For the next seven months, they flew back and forth to see each other in New York, until they both landed jobs there and made the city their permanent home.

If we had to sum up the Real BB Weddings of 2025 in a single word, it would be surprise. What began as visions saved to Pinterest boards, Instagram folders, and iPhone notes blossomed into once-in-a-lifetime celebrations, blending luxury florals, thoughtful design, and intentional styling with deeply personal details to create singular, heartfelt experiences for newlyweds, guests, and vendors alike.

We were especially delighted to see timeless mainstays – white florals and lush greenery, candelabra décor, and classic black-tie aesthetics – reimagined in bold and unexpected ways. Nothing felt cookie-cutter or by the book. It’s never lost on us that we play a role in telling each couple’s love story, creating a floral backdrop for the first chapter of many still to come. Join us as we look back on these breathtaking moments from the Real BB Weddings of 2025.

Shifali and Vikram first met at a wedding he was officiating. Her friend – the groom – had been telling her about Vikram, but she wasn’t interested at first. “Once the ceremony started, I couldn’t stop laughing,” she recalls. “I immediately asked for an introduction.” They began dating soon after, while Shifali was living in New York City and Vikram was completing his residency at Penn. “We knew our relationship was something special early on,” she shares, “because we were both making the effort to travel back and forth to see each other.”

Color has the power to transform a wedding, infusing florals with personality, emotion, and unforgettable style. Yet, incorporating bold hues doesn’t mean sacrificing elegance or timelessness. With the right balance of palette, placement, and texture, wedding flowers can make a striking statement while still feeling refined and classic. In this guide, we’ll explore thoughtful ways – brought to life in our Real BB Weddings – that embrace color fearlessly, creating floral designs that are both bold and beautifully enduring.

Use a Monochromatic Palette
If a combination of bold shades doesn’t fit your wedding vision, consider choosing one color family and explore its gradient – blush to magenta, pale peach to deep coral, or soft lavender to plum. The result feels cohesive, sophisticated, and romantic.

Stephanie and Ricky met in Fall 2010 when both were still teenagers. “It was at Ricky’s best friend’s birthday party at a Hibachi Restaurant. We started BBM (Blackberry messaging) that night and haven’t missed a day since,” Stephanie remembers about their instant connection. Twelve years later and now living together in downtown Manhattan, the couple was taking their daily walk through the neighborhood. Usually a calm scene, the gates of St. Vincent’s Triangle Park had been taking over by FDNY due to a fire in the nearby subway station. Despite Stephanie’s serious hesitation, Ricky insisted they continue walking through the area. Her tone quickly changed to one of surprise after realizing that a photographer was taking photos of them. On April 1, 2022, Ricky got down on one knee and proposed to Stephanie.
