I had the incredible opportunity to help design and execute four weddings for Love Is Blind Season 8. With just 12 days from concept to completion, it was the tightest timeline I’ve ever worked under. We produced four weddings in four consecutive days, and I was on site for over 20 hours a day. I stayed longer than any cast, crew, or production member because I was fully committed to making sure every detail was perfect.

I led the design all of the florals for each wedding and adapted my usual style to meet the unique demands of filming. With cameras placed in every direction, I had to consider spacing, visibility, sightlines, and hiding cameras in a way that completely changed how I approached design. Every stem had to look beautiful both in person and on screen. I also helped select all the decor, linens, and furniture to create cohesive, intentional spaces that reflected each couple’s style while still working within the fast pace of television production.

One of my favorite moments was designing the cake for the final wedding that aired. I created a spiral floral structure around it that felt sculptural and romantic, and it was so exciting to bring that vision to life. Most seasons feature a cake decorator, so getting to be the first floral designer to take on that challenge for the show was a proud moment. I had ideas for the others too, and my only regret is that more couples didn’t say yes so I could bring those cake designs to life. I truly hope to do it again.

Throughout the process, I moved constantly between creative and logistical roles. I went from arranging flowers to sewing custom touches to styling small, meaningful details. Because of the nature of the show, no one knew whether the couples would say yes until they stood at the altar. That emotional unpredictability added intensity to every moment. I waited during each ceremony with my heart in my throat, knowing that the space we created could become a backdrop to either a celebration or a goodbye.

I managed 10 to 15 team members per day and responded to last-minute changes as cameras were moved and angled. It was physically demanding, creatively challenging, and one of the most fulfilling experiences of my career. It pushed me further than any project before and reminded me exactly why I do this work: to create beauty, connection, and moments that leave a lasting impact.
