Florist/Set Designer@christopherlauren At a star-studded Black Excellence Brunch, @marshaambrosius turns Patti LaBelle’s R&B classic into a tear-jerking Essence Fest moment you need to see. One of the standout moments surrounding Essence Fest 2026 happened away from the Superdome stage, when Marsha Ambrosius paid tribute to Patti LaBelle with a soaring rendition of one of the icon’s signature songs, “If Only You Knew.” The florals were conversation pieces The Centerpieces were composed of Fresh Mangos, Clementines, Coconuts sliced in half to expose the white meat, Bird Of Paradise, Cymbidium Orchids, Phalenopis Orchids, Anthurium, and Garden Roses. The pink bench adorned with florals was marveled by the guest. A night to remember.
