Julia + Reid's All-White Wedding at The Hillside Estate

We worked with Julia and Reid to coordinate and design flowers for their May wedding at The Hillside Estate — the perfect venue for the elegant, simplistic and clean style they envisioned. We focused on incorporating different textures to create interest even with a monotone palette of whites and ivories. Greenery and baby’s breath were the perfect accents that still kept everything fresh- and manicured-feeling.

For the ceremony, we designed a dimensional all-white arch of Hydrangea and Roses, and used compote arrangements to line the aisle for another subtle touch of flowers. The space’s high vaulted ceilings, chandeliers and massive windows complimented the light, bright, textural style of the flowers and really made them pop — especially with the lush outdoor backdrop.

Both the arch and the arrangements were repurposed for the reception, and we added tall manicured arrangements on the head table for a statement — these sat on clear vases to continue the clean, airy style. Bridesmaid bouquets helped fill out the head table in smaller clear vases. Simple place settings, candle holders and white linens kept the tables simple and cohesive, and gold chairs added just a little bit of contrast to the overall look.

With the arch framing it, the cake was another fun decor element in the reception space — embellished with the same Rose and Baby’s Breath pairing for volume and texture.

Julia’s bouquet was full of white Playa Blanca Roses that gave her an all-white bridal look with her bright white dress — her bridesmaids wore elegant taupe gowns that made the bride pop in photos yet kept the clean, neutral look.
