Rio and Nick’s wedding in Houston was a bold and intimate celebration of modern maximalism and deeply personal style, designed to feel both editorial and emotionally grounded. Set on the rooftop lawn of Thompson Houston, the ceremony overlooked the skyline and pool, creating a striking backdrop for a design-forward outdoor wedding experience.

Beyond Bloems provided full-service floral design and event production, curating a seamless transition from ceremony to reception while maintaining a cohesive and expressive design story throughout the day.

Rooftop Ceremony | Sculptural Floral Design

The ceremony featured sculptural floral arrangements in a rich, saturated palette of burgundy, wine, layered pinks, and fresh greens. Sunflowers with delicately pulled-back petals introduced an unexpected, artistic element, adding texture and movement while elevating a traditionally bright bloom into something more refined and expressive.

Grouped floral installations were designed to feel both organic and architectural, creating a dramatic visual statement that complemented the clean lines of the rooftop setting and enhanced the surrounding skyline views.

Brunch Reception | Intimate and Curated Experience

Following the ceremony, the celebration transitioned into an intimate brunch reception at Annabelle Brasserie, where the design story carried through seamlessly.

With a guest count of 26, the reception allowed for a highly curated and personalized experience. Layered textures, vibrant florals, and thoughtful tabletop styling created a warm and elevated atmosphere that encouraged connection while maintaining a strong visual identity.
