Nature-inspired Meridian House Wedding

Nature-inspired Meridian House Wedding

With a scheme of greens and whites, Sandi and Aaron’s nature-inspired Meridian House wedding put an elegant spin on the rustic and organic aesthetic. Sandi’s ridiculously swoonworthy bouquet featured an earthy and organic mix of air plants, succulents, seastar and maidenhair ferns accented with soft, feminine touches of classic white tulips, ranunculus, lilac and anemone.

The bridesmaids’ bouquets featured tulips, stock, ranunculus and spray roses accented with seastar fern, maidenhair fern, and air plants.

You can really feel all the laid back vibe of the wedding with the ceremony. Low on decor, the garden ceremony embraced the organic green feel of being outdoors. The garden in spring is really the perfect place for a nature-inspired Meridian House Wedding. And the flower girl and ring bearers stole the show with their walk down the aisle!

A garland of mixed greens was centered across the length of the escort card table, draping off the ends and cascading to the floor. The garland was accented with touches of air plants, succulents and moss to add to the rustic, organic feel. A manzanita branch set in a moss-finished urn served as the “wish” tree on the guestbook table.

The dinner tables featured an eclectic mix of terrariums in a variety of glass containers. Each terrarium featured succulents, air plants, potted miniature African violets, and small orchids and ferns. We love how the eclectic feel of the centerpieces extended to the table settings. Some had a green rim while others a green leaf pattern.

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.

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. 👀
