There are some weddings that feel extra special, and Darian and Justin’s celebration at Benham’s Grove was certainly one of them. As a wedding planner, it is always an honor to help couples bring their vision to life, but coordinating the wedding of someone who works in the wedding industry herself made this day even more meaningful. Darian works for Furst Florist, one of Dayton’s most beloved floral design companies, so we knew every detail would be thoughtful, beautiful, and full of personality.
From the moment guests arrived, it was clear that flowers would play a starring role. One of our favorite design elements from the day was the breathtaking tulip installation suspended above the bar inside Benham’s new Event Center. The vibrant blooms created an unforgettable focal point and perfectly captured the fresh, romantic feel of the celebration. Every floral detail felt intentional, elegant, and uniquely Darian and Justin.






The couple exchanged vows outdoors behind the Event Center, where a stunning floral-centered ceremony design transformed the space into a garden-inspired backdrop. The lush blooms framed the couple beautifully while still allowing the natural beauty of the venue to shine through. It was the perfect blend of timeless romance and springtime charm.
One of the reasons we love planning weddings at Benham’s Grove is the incredible variety of photo opportunities available throughout the property. The grounds offer everything from mature trees and winding pathways to historic architecture and open green spaces. Whether you’re envisioning romantic portraits, wedding party photos, or intimate newlywed moments, Benham’s provides a gorgeous backdrop in every season.






For couples searching for a Dayton wedding venue that offers both indoor and outdoor flexibility, the Benham’s Grove Event Center is a wonderful choice. The newly constructed Event Center provides a bright, modern space while still preserving the historic charm that has made Benham’s a favorite for generations. With beautiful landscaping, convenient guest amenities, and ample room for ceremonies and receptions, it is easy to see why so many Dayton-area couples are choosing this venue for their wedding day.






At Glass & Grace Events, we believe the best weddings reflect the people at the center of them, and Darian and Justin’s day did exactly that. Their wedding was joyful, welcoming, and filled with meaningful details that celebrated their love story. We are so grateful to have been a part of such a beautiful day and wish them a lifetime of happiness together.
