An Ethereal Garden Wedding

If you’re dreaming of a soft, whimsical, blush and cream open-air tented wedding, prepare to be INSPIRED! The outstanding coordination & design team at Couture Events spared no detail when creating this traditional, garden beauty! Set along the beautiful, lush grounds of the Inn at Rancho Santa Fe, the event aesthetic blended perfectly with its soft backdrop.

The bride and her ladies carried fluffy, white and cream bouquets of soft garden blooms.

Over 2000 white roses were petaled to create this dense aisle. Tall, textured floral arrangements were placed atop custom ivory platforms to line the sides of the aisle leading to the stunningly detailed floral archway. Delicate, whimsical vines naturally cascaded from the archway to compliment glittering, crystal strands.

The cocktail hour boasted eclectic vintage furnishings with floating vines placed above head. A lush floral wall was placed as a photo backdrop.

The open tent reception was the perfect mix of traditional, vintage and garden, pairing wood tables with gold chiavari chairs, silk runners and pairing of tall and short centerpieces in soft shades of white, blush and fresh green.

The beautiful wedding cake had it’s very own canopy placed above it, finished with a crystal chandelier and dripping vines.

Crystal & Charlie : Rustic Mountain-Side Affair

This drool-worthy fête was truly one for the books! The talent at Luxe Events designed this shin-dig from start to finish with each piece of furniture carefully sourced by the Luxe ladies (from Archive Vintage Rentals). Crystal chose a soft palette of blushes, peaches and ivories with fresh, natural greens and rustic elements throughout.

C’s soft bouquet was created with various garden roses paired with soft stock, lisianthus, spray roses and other like blooms with a gentle peek-a-boo of greens.

The breathtaking mountain-side ceremony took place within the valley of the Serendipity Oaks Ranch venue, where we accented their structure with soft, sheer ivory draping and rich, natural garland. We placed a crystal chandelier in the center to add a bit of glam to the scene and placed free-standing crystal chandeliers at the entry to the aisle. Soft dupioni silk bows were placed down the aisle chairs.

To say the reception was simply “detailed” would surely be an understatement, with a pairing of round linen-covered guest tables, wood tables and vintage furniture pieces. We brought in a plethora of unique vessels in textured mercury glass, soft sea foam glass, vintage crystal, bronze, gold, silver and glass. Unique vignettes were created on tables, along with some banquet tables being covered in a lush, floral-accented garland.

A huge thank you to Justin Lee Photography for capturing each image so beautifully!!!!

We joined forces with the uber talented ladies of Luxe Events (who designed each detail flawlessly) and the talented photographers at She Wanders Photography to capture it in all of its glory.

The entrance to the open, structural tent was marked by French lace accented pedestals paired with hand painted beach wood and tall, vintage silver candelabras topped with dripping centerpieces of lush ivory, cream and green flowers.

Christinna & Will : Soft Glamour at the US Grant

We LOVE SPRNG weddings! Soft pastel blush, peach and yellow tones gently kissed the Parisian ballroom of the fabulous US Grant Hotel complete with over 9 varieties of roses, fragrant garden roses, tuberose, hydrangea, stock, draping jasmine, ranunculus, lisianthus and hyacinth. We absolutely adored working with CBS Weddings on this gorgeous fête.

The bridesmaids wore a perfect peach tone, complimenting the bouquets beautifully! The Rancho Santa Fe ceremony was complete with two large centerpieces placed atop pedestals to frame the couple.

The escort cards were daintily placed atop a delicate pavé of hydrangea within our champagne and ivory wrapped boxes complete with glittering, vintage brooch accents.

The dreamy reception was studded with tall, round centerpieces surrounded by candlelight and bud vases, dripping in ivory, blush, soft yellow and cinnamon toned blooms.

A big thanks to True Photography for capturing all of these beautiful images, as always!!!

Faith & Alex: An Elegant Affair

Once you see the photos of this GORGEOUSLY sophisticated wedding, you’re sure to fall in love. The perfect mix between delicate and masculine, we joined up with one of our favorite coordinators/designers: the fabulous Krystel Tien, owner of Couture Events, to create this night of magical perfection.

Our delicate lace runners were complimented by tight arrangements of ivory flowers placed inside unique vintage urn vases with delicate mercury glass candle holder accents. The delicate tabletop decor juxtaposed with the large, rough, deep wood banquet tables created a sophisticated elegance that even the harshest of critics would be forced to love.

Dreamy bouquets were created in shades of white and ivory with feather and rhinestone brooch accents finished in rich champagne silk with a delicate lace overlay.

The gorgeous bridal bouquet was accented with a rhinestone brooch surrounded by earrings from the bride’s grandmother, mixing old and new.

The dramatic ceremony was lush with tall floral arrangements placed atop delicate silver stands and white pedestals leading down to the 12ft tall floral structures created from wrought iron, manzanita branches, exotic white draping phalanopsis orchids with blooms attached by hand, creating the look of a “blooming” branch.
