Kristina + Pierce's Bold Red-and-Pinks Wedding at the Stonebriar Country Club

Kristina and Pierce had their wedding in October but wanted to channel Valentine’s Day with “love is in the air” inspiration and a palette of pinks and reds. We worked with Jennifer of Turn the Paige Events to bring this to life at the Stonebriar Country Club in Frisco - the backdrop for an outdoor ceremony and reception.

The ceremony site looked out over a lake on the property and a winding pathway that the altar sat in. We designed two sets of tall oversized arrangements for both the start of the aisle and the altar that sat on urns and white pedestals. These introduced bold red and pink shades with a touch of greenery, and the aisle was accented with petite bouquets on the inside chairs.

The reception was held in the exact same space as the ceremony, so a full transformation happened in between while guests enjoyed the cocktail hour. Round guest tables had a mix of tall and low arrangements across the space and had simple, elegant decor accents. 

The head table was more layered - with taper candles in gold holders, votive candles, pink touches in the place settings, and understated color-blocked arrangements down the center. Chandeliers hanging above the table - with vines of greenery strung around them - made a fun statement and added some more light to this after-dark reception. The cake was another statement - a vintage style design with a floral meadow at the base and an “ombre” cascade of blush, fuchsia and red roses down the side.

Each bridesmaid wore a gown in a different shade of pink (and in different materials and patterns) and carried a bouquet in a different color from the palette, with pops of red tying them all together. Kristina’s bouquet featured all the shades and pops of white and ivory.

Ally + Drew's Coastal-Inspired Texas Wedding at The French Farmhouse

Ally and Drew’s wedding at The French Farmhouse was a unique blend of coastal inspiration and Southern wedding elements in a palette of bright, playful pastels and charming design elements like patterned linens, rattan chairs and baskets as accents and colored flatware and candles. This was named the 2025 Wed Society North Texas wedding of the year!

The ceremony site had a wooden door backdrop at the altar, which was accented with a disconnected floral arch on either side, with each color grouped together in clusters. Leading up to the altar, all-Hydrangea arrangements lined the aisle, and single-stem arrangements in baskets marked the start of the aisle with fun pops of color.

For the transition to the reception, the seating chart had planter boxes mounted on it that held vibrant multi-colored arrangements with purple, orange, green and pink blooms. Lights with rattan shades hung from a wooden overhead trellis made this extra whimsical and summery!

The reception was designed with lots of layers and dimension, including basket floral arrangements, colored taper candles in wooden holders, fruit styled down the tabletops, rattan votive holders, orange marbled candle holders and blue bud vases, all on top of neutral patterned linens. The cake was also styled with flowers around its base, and Hydrangea lined the mantle behind it. The stage facade also got a floral accent with color blocked basket arrangements.

Ally’s bouquet was all white, and her bridesmaids each had a single-color bouquet in a shade of green, pink or orange. They all wore blue gowns in different colors and materials, continuing the focus on textures!

Bridal Bouquet: white Peony, white Cloud Garden Roses, Playa Blanca Roses, white Lisianthus, white Majolica Spray Roses, white Phlox, white Larkspur, white Stock, white Sweet Pea

Ashleigh + Braden's Spring Wedding at the Fort Worth Botanic Gardens

Ashleigh and Braden planned a Springtime wedding in Fort Worth at the Botanic Gardens and Zoo with Gathered Events - vibrant pastels made up the fresh, Spring color palette, and were combined with a classic, elegant style in the floral elements our team designed.

The ceremony was at the gardens, and we lined the aisle with organic-style arrangements that curved around the back of the chairs, leading to a floral arch at the altar. Several more ground arrangements accented the altar area to make the space feel lush and full of flowers. Pops of bright pink, peach and blue blooms stood out against all the garden’s natural foliage.

The Fort Worth Zoo was the reception site, and guests even got to feed giraffes during cocktail hour! Transitioning into the party, the tent setup brought in more color with blue linen drapery, and other blue focal points like the bar facade and chairs tied in. We designed two large “tree” installations behind each bar, and large urn arrangements to sit on the tête-à-têtes amongst the guest seating. Tables were decorated with floral runners, low arrangements, bud vases and candles for an eclectic, layered mix on top of subtly-patterned green linens.

Bouquets leaned into more neutral/white blooms with pops of soft pastels - the bridesmaids wore baby blue gowns that brought out the touches of blue Tweedia.

Bridal Bouquet Ingredients: Playa Blanca Roses, White Cloud Garden Roses, White Majolica Spray Roses, Veronica, Blue Tweedia, Lavender Sweet Pea, Peach Ranunculus, White Larkspur, Blush Butterfly Ranunculus, Butter Yellow Lisianthus

Ivie + Shawni's Vibrant April Wedding at The Hillside Estate

Ivie and Shawni had an April wedding at The Hillside Estate and took advantage of the venue and weather with an indoor ceremony and outdoor reception. We got to work with Gathered Events on curating all the right elements to go along with bold colorful, textural floral moments. 

The star of the ceremony was the winding aisle densely lined with blooms in pinks, purples, oranges and yellows, paired with colored pillar candles and leading up to a lush floral arch at the altar. Leaning into burgundy as a focal color helped elevate the palette and made the other shades pop even more.

The reception was held outside, where a few long guest tables surrounded the dance floor (just as vibrant and bold as the flowers and other decor!). We designed floral runners with the same bright pinks and oranges, and also styled bud vases and candles for extra interest and layers on the rectangular tables. 

White and orange linens were the perfect complement to the deep burgundy tones in the flowers and decor - even at the sweetheart table, which was framed by a fireplace with a mantle arrangement and a semicircle of some softer shades in front. For a final lush, romantic touch, greenery was strung across the venue’s cafe lights.

Ivie’s bridal bouquet was an elegant, romantic culmination of the floral design, focused on a contrast of light, bright orange and yellow tones with deeper purple and red blooms and dainty textures.

Bridal Bouquet Ingredients: White Peony, Peach Ranunculus, Burgundy Amaranthus, Yellow Butterfly Ranunculus, Pink Double Tulip, Heart Roses, Lavender Sweet Pea, Lilac, Shimmer Roses, Light Pink Larkspur, Light Pink Scabiosa

Angela + Zachary's Elegant Garden-Inspired Wedding

Angela and Zachary held their wedding at The Hillside Estate, with the help of Gathered Events - the perfect venue and team for a Springtime alfresco reception! They gravitated towards a soft, neutral palette - white, blush and a dusty mauve - and lots of texture for visual interest.

For the ceremony, we designed organic-style ground arrangements that sat in between clusters of candles down the aisle, and an ultra-textural arch for the altar. The arch was made up of lush greenery, concentrated at the base on either side, with clusters of color-blocked flowers throughout it. More pillar candles on the ground were accents!

Cocktail hour was held on the patio, so we added a couple floral touches to transition from the ceremony - a mantle arrangement, which the bar was positioned in front of, and two pops of flowers for the bar top itself. The reception was also held outdoors, with guest tables beneath four cabanas - two on either side of the head table - all situated in front of the stage and a pink-and-white checkered dance floor.

The head table held a lush floral garland down its center, and compote arrangements in footed wood vases and bud vases lined the remaining guest tables. A mix of candles also helped make this feel organic, layered and romantic. Angela and Zachary had a sweetheart table opposite the stage, and we designed two urn arrangements on either side of the couple, a dramatic floral meadow right on the table top and at the base of the table. Linens and other accents highlighted a soft sage green.

Bridesmaids also wore green, and bouquets were kept light and bright in the ivory and blush shades - roses, Ranunculus, Sweet Pea - with subtle touches of huckleberry.

Bridal Bouquet Ingredients: Playa Blanca Roses, Quicksand Roses, Blush Butterfly Ranunculus, White Majolica Spray Roses, White Lisianthus, White Larkspur, White Stock, white Sweet Pea, Huckleberry Greenery
