The Venue

Nestled within the historic grandeur of the Henry Morrison Flagler Museum—a stunning Gilded Age mansion in Palm Beach, Florida, built in 1902 by railroad magnate Henry Flagler as an extravagant wedding gift for his wife—this iconic venue showcases opulent architecture, rich history, and breathtaking views of the Intracoastal Waterway.

But what really made this day unforgettable? The little personal touches and thoughtful planning that made the whole thing feel so them. Guests wandered through the stunning museum, took it all in, then settled into the gorgeous Railroad Room where Rachel and Andrew said their “I do’s.”

The Design

The couple took their design inspo from a unique Charleston-inspired table linen called Terra Violet by Stradley Davidson. Their floral game was next level, with dramatic purple Vanda orchid trees, wispy Spanish moss hanging just right, and vintage touches everywhere—from the chairs to the flatware. They nailed that balance between honoring the museum’s timeless charm and making the whole vibe their own.

The night? Totally magical. Everyone danced under those grand ceilings in the big hall, sipping champagne from a tower and soaking up the soft white florals that felt effortlessly luxe.
