Spring pinks for a Hotel Monaco wedding? Yes please. And then when a bride says to you, βI like the idea of gold pineapples,β you know youβre going to have fun with the flowers for her wedding! Caren and Aaron chose the modern and slightly funky venue to fill with spring pinks for their Hotel Monaco. Carenβs bouquet was composed of some unique and fun flowers, including protea, ranunculus, peonies, tulips, stock, astilbe and hyacinth in varying shades of pink accented with seeded eucalyptus foliage. Bridesmaids bouquets were also textural blooms of ranunculus, tulips, and hyacinth in varying shades of pink accented with seeded eucalyptus foliage. Did you notice? Not a single rose! Aaronβs boutonniere was a hot pink ranunculus accented with bear grass, and the remaining boutonnieres used light pink ranunculus.
A suspended panel fo fabric highlighted the unique architectural features of the venue. With some accents of spring pinks for the Hotel Monaco wedding chuppah, it took the scene from simple to romantic. Posies of flowers were attached to each corner for a pop of color.
Spring pinks featured throughout their Hotel Monaco wedding reception as well. The escort card table design set a fun and dramatic scene with a tall, fluted glass vase displaying an expressive design of protea, stock, orchids, tulips, snapdragons, astilbe, and larkspur in varying shades of pink accented with ruscus, baby blue eucalyptus, and seeded eucalyptus for texture and drape. Wisps of draping jasmine vine and submerged sprays of orchids lent the finishing touch. Cocktail arrangements didnβt disappoint with those gold painted pineapples filled with a textured mix of hydrangea, tulips, astilbe, and stock in varying shades of pink accented seeded eucalyptus. Guest tables in the reception held a gold cube vase of dark pink hydrangea, light pink stock, light pink astilbe, tulips and ranunculus in varying shades of pink, and pale green succulents finished with seeded eucalyptus.
Spring pinks for a Hotel Monaco wedding? We’d say it was a success.
