At First Class Designs, our passion is helping people bring their visions to life, making their special days as beautiful, memorable, and unique as possible. From jaw-dropping floral installations to custom-built signage, this year was full of creative and trend-setting designs that pushed boundaries and celebrated love in all its forms.

Here’s a look at some of our favorite moments from 2024 weddings and events, as shared by our team members.

Elliott’s Favorites

Galentine’s Day Luxury Brunch
“One of my favorite events this year was the annual Galentine’s Day Luxury Brunch at The Sixpence. This vibrant and playful event is always such a highlight, and this year we went all out! My personal favorite element was the bold, custom foam sign that read ‘Stupid Cupid’—a show-stopping centerpiece that doubled as the perfect photo backdrop. In addition, we designed three unique photo moments throughout the space, each perfectly tailored to the luxe and playful vibe of the brunch. Seeing guests interact with our designs and snapping photos was incredibly rewarding.”

Aly & Komal’s Wedding
“Another highlight of 2024 for me was working on Aly & Komal’s two-day, four-event wedding celebration blending Indian and American traditions. This was an incredible opportunity to get creative and design something truly special. From custom-built arches to a breathtaking mandap, the intricate details made this celebration unforgettable. Each event had a unique floral color scheme, transforming the atmosphere from one moment to the next. The biggest challenge was flipping the morning ceremony setup into a sophisticated evening reception, but seeing everything come together seamlessly was so rewarding. The joy and love shared throughout those two days made this an event I’ll never forget.”

Jessica’s Favorites

Liz & Josh’s Wedding
“Liz and Josh’s wedding was absolutely magical! Their theme was all about sunset-inspired florals, featuring warm tones and soft gradients that created a dreamy atmosphere. My favorite piece was the custom-built chuppah we designed for their ceremony. With detachable legs, we were able to seamlessly repurpose it as the sweetheart table backdrop during the reception. It was such a thoughtful way to keep the design cohesive throughout the day. Watching Liz and Josh exchange vows under such a stunning structure made the entire experience even more special!”

Morgan & Marcus’s Wedding
“Another favorite of mine this year was Morgan and Marcus’s wedding. From the start, they had a clear vision—they wanted to be surrounded by vibrant, colorful flowers, and we loved making that dream come true. From the planning and design to the florals, every detail was carefully curated to reflect their joyful personalities. The vibrant colors and playful arrangements added so much life to their day, and it was clear how much love and happiness surrounded them. They were truly the sweetest couple, and it was an honor to be part of such a special celebration.”
