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.

Larissa & Peter – Vintage Hotel Del Perfection

We are sort of speechless when it comes to this one. Not only were L & P absolutely amazing to work with (and gorgeous!) but the team and design concepts that the lovely ladies of Luxe Events put together could not have been more magical. Jenny Minns (co-owner of Luxe Events) dreamt up a vintage ceremony scene, complete with a mahogany wood church pew entrance and a custom built wood platform holding a large vintage doorway set as the wedding archway. We kicked the dreamy scene up a notch with lush and cascading florals. Dripping hopps vines were paired with garden roses, hydrangea, spray roses, lisianthus, garlands and other like blooms to make this scene something truly spectacular. The gorgeous beach at the Hotel Del Coronado was the perfect backdrop to this beauty!

A slight nautical nod was carried throughout the reception, including soft gray and ivory striped linens paired with vintage wood tables. Our distressed wood stands were the perfect pairing to the highly stylized work that the ladies of Luxe Events produced.

note: all photographs not watermarked by the awesome True Photography were done by the very talented B. Miller Photography.

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!!!!

Amanda & Tyler : Love at the Darlington House

A soft palette of pale blush, ivory and cream was paired with fresh, lush foliage to create this fabulously-textured and floral-filled affair at the Darlington House in La Jolla, California.

Bridesmaids carried bouquets with hints of blush tones while the bride carried an all ivory, cream and fresh green bouquet of fragrant garden roses, gardenias, stock, roses, spray roses, dusty miller and other like elements.

We filled our custom stained boxes with delicate lavender buds for escort cards to be placed atop.

The focal point of the rose garden reception was created with a long, wood head table topped with our delicate lace runners and floral arrangement clusters surrounding tall mercury glass candle holders paired with deep wood stained boxes, dripping with lush florals.

We accented the chairs of the bride and groom with lush, clustered floral groupings and garlands. Guest centerpieces were a mixture of two types of arrangements.

We loved working with Rachel Finn of I Do…Weddings and Jennifer Dery Photography on this lovely wedding!

We are swooning over every detail of N & M’s vintage nuptials! The perfect blend of classic sophistication and ethereal femininity, their day was set against the outdoor backdrop of the Santaluz Club tent.
