Modern Style for District Winery Wedding

Modern District Winery Wedding

While warm, intimate and absolutely stunning, Terri and Brandon’s modern wedding District Winery embraced clean lines and modern design for a feel that was contemporary and upbeat. The rich florals evoked some of the most delicious wine varietals! For Terri’s bridal bouquet, elegant and textured was our goal. A mix of blooms including blush Juliet garden roses, peach roses and stock, burgundy mini calla lilies, and chocolate cosmos were gathered together for an impact that was at once romantic and lush. The bridesmaids carried complementary bouquets in the same soft peach hues, hand-tied with burgundy satin ribbon. Brandon’s groomsmen wore sophisticated boutonnieres consisting of peach spray roses, while the groom’s boutonniere featured a burgundy mini calla lily accented with artful loops of bear grass.

Modern Ceremony Style

The couple’s ceremony setup was especially striking, with two modern altar arrangements set on pedestals. Birch logs lined the interior of two glass cylinder vases, topped them with a lush design of white hydrangea, peach stock and roses, burgundy spray roses, and burgundy scabiosa. Asymmetrical designs of white phalaenopsis orchids cascaded from the lush bank of flowers. The aisle was punctuated by black lanterns, along with a scattering of peach rose petals to demarcate the bride’s path.

Intimate Reception

When it was time for guests to celebrate at the couple’s modern District Winery wedding reception, they were treated to the visual of centerpieces easily as delicious-looking as the catering! Glass rectangle vases were filled with a mix of white hydrangea as well as peach stock, garden roses and spray roses, finished with touches of burgundy mini calla lilies and chocolate cosmos. It was the perfect ambience for Terri and Brandon’s wedding festivities!

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.

There’s just something about St. Francis Hall.⁣

Maybe it’s the brick. Maybe it’s the windows. Maybe it’s those twinkle lights that somehow make every wedding feel a little bit magical.⁣
⁣
For Erin & Joel`s wedding, we loved the contrast of all that warm architecture with cool blues, crisp whites and lots of greenery. Nothing fighting the room. Nothing trying too hard. Just really pretty flowers in a really wonderful space.⁣
⁣
And honestly, we could design here a hundred times and still get excited walking through those doors.⁣

An outdoor ceremony followed by a beautiful ballroom reception? The St. Regis makes a very persuasive case.⁣
⁣
The Astor Terrace and Astor Ballroom give us two different settings to consider, and I love finding the floral thread between them. A color carried through. A favorite flower appearing again. A shape that feels familiar when guests move inside. You get the excitement of a new space, with flowers that feel like they belong to the same celebration.⁣
⁣
Those connections are some of my favorite parts of wedding design, and for Katie and Doug, I love how they went a step further with incorporating hand painted ceramics form Katie`s homeland. ⁣

OBSESSED was a word we heard many times over the course of this wedding. The color palette was just {chef’s kiss}

Annual reminder, because winter is coming: winter weddings don’t have to be white. ❄️

Three color stories we’re loving this season:
🤍 Icy winter + candlelight
🍷 Burgundy, plum & wine (goodbye, traditional red)
✨ White, gold & metallics

Which one are you? I have opinions — tell me below. 👀
