Gilded Gold Fall Wedding

Gilded Gold Fall Wedding

Gold painted animals for seating

Could Laura and Ken’s gilded gold fall wedding been more on-point with the use of greenery? We are seeing a surge of weddings embracing green, and this sure is one of them! Laura’s bridal bouquet featured a range of fall orange and burgundy tones accented with loose, lush, greenery varied in texture. Seeded eucalyptus, jasmine vine, and camellia foliage set the scene against which garden roses, spray roses, anemone, ranunculus, scabiosa, and dahlia stole the show. The bridesmaids carried similar, simpler bouquets. The boutonnieres were designed using white ranunculus accented with seeded eucalyptus, viburnum berries, and scabiosa pods finished with a rustic twine.

The ceremony took place at St. Matthew’s Cathedral, with the wedding reception to follow at the Carnegie Institute. Balloons made for a playful entrance to the site, accented with jasmine vine which similarly adorned the menu board. The play didn’t stop there, as the gilded gold fall wedding featured party animal escort cards as a twist on the seating assignments. It really add a light and fun element to the decor design!

Dinner tables were each centered with a glass footed bowl filled with a textured, loose mix of greens accented with garden roses, spray roses, ranunculus, anemone, scabiosa, and pods and berries. A long king’s table centered the room, with an elegant length of seeded eucalyptus and salal garland accented with taper candles. Small touches of flowers sparingly accented the garland. A similar garland adorned the bar.

Anything better than classic vibes? ✨ 

My favorite moment? Transferring the aisle garland studded with white blooms to the urn alcove for a dramatic moment in the tent.

A palette pulled straight from a glass of bourbon. 🥃

Sculptural calla lilies, trailing amaranthus, grapes and peaches. Modern, organic, a little decadent, and just a little moody.

Designed for Basil Hayden, and proof that sometimes the most interesting thing you can put in a floral arrangement isn’t a flower.

We loved working with @basilhayden to bring this together.
