Brenda + Brian's Dimensional Fall Wedding with Outdoor Reception
Brenda and Brian had an October wedding at the Hillside Estate with an fall-time palette of oranges, reds and yellows for their indoor ceremony and outdoor reception - we worked with Gathered Events on this stunning classic autumnal design and love the texture and warm tones that made everything feel organic and elegant!
For the ceremony, we designed an oversized asymmetrical floral arch of color-blocked clusters of autumn tones, and let the light wooden arch pop through in spots for added texture. The flowers extended in front of the arch to span out from the altar, which made this a dramatic statement moment. The aisle had ground arrangements lining each side, almost connecting directly to those extending from the arch.
The weather couldn’t have been better for Brenda and Brian’s outdoor reception on the venue’s patio, and was marked with floral-covered columns as a grand entryway. All the guest seating was accommodated by two long tables, which we decorated with compote arrangements with a mix of amber and burgundy candles and fruit styled around them. These were beneath the venue’s cafe lights strung overhead, and we accented these with fall-toned foliage. For even more floral impact, we added ground arrangements to the ends of the tables.
The newlyweds sat at a sweetheart table in front of the fireplace, where we installed a floral-and-foliage garland, and a waterfalling floral arrangement down one side of the table. This was a great focal point for the outdoor space, especially as framed by the tables and cafe lights. We incorporated even more flowers for the cake display - an arrangement trailing down the table and a ground arrangement in front for more volume.
The bouquets were designed in an organic style and focused on the lighter side of the palette - soft orange, butter yellow, taupe and pops of red. With the bridesmaids in yellow, this was the perfect light and bright moment that still had dimension and tied in with the warmth of the rest of the event.
