Who is your Mayflower? That one soul who, after life’s storms, brings sunshine to your heart again. The one who reminds you what joy feels like, who fills your days with laughter, beauty, and light. Think of them today... your reminder that after every rain, something beautiful blooms.
Spring was in full bloom—literally and figuratively—at the annual Ava Laurénne Bride hosted Mayflowers Bridal Fashion Show & Floral Couture Event high above the charming streets of Downtown Greenville. Held on the rooftop of the iconic AC Hotel at Broad & Main, this celebration was a feast for the senses and a perfect tribute to bridal beauty, blooming florals, and unforgettable fashion.
Our evening began with a stunning live floral demonstration by the incredibly talented Wendy Mercer of Gatherings Creative. Guests gathered in Juniper’s chic rooftop space, sipping floral-inspired lattes and enjoying luxurious hors d'oeuvres and charcuterie (shout out to The Board Builders for those almost-too-pretty-to-eat boards!). The atmosphere was dreamy—vibrant, fresh, and filled with laughter and conversation.
Wendy’s floral installations absolutely mesmerized the crowd. Her artistry brought blossoms to life in ways no one expected. Just when we thought we had seen it all, the jaw-dropping surprise came: the gorgeous tablescape transformed into a floral spray adorning an elegant armchair, which quickly became the photo op of the evening. Talk about bloom goals!
With spirits high and flowers in hand (yes—guests were gifted mini bouquets to take home!), the party moved to the rooftop runway where the fashion magic began. Against the backdrop of a cotton-candy Greenville sunset, guests were treated to a bridal and bridesmaid fashion show like no other.
Models floated down the runway in ethereal gowns from Bella Bridesmaids and jaw-dropping couture looks from our very own Ava Laurenne Bride Greenville collection. Each dress seemed to dance with the golden light, bringing our guests’ bridal dreams to life.
None of this would have been possible without the all-star lineup of vendors who helped bring this vision to life:
As the sky shifted from golden hour to starry night, guests toasted with passion fruit mimosas courtesy of Juniper and indulged in the daintiest macarons—the perfect little sweet bites to close out a perfect evening.
