The venue provided the perfect backdrop for a celebration that blended modernity with timeless elegance. In this blog post, we'll take you on a journey through the captivating details of this autumnal affair, where the ambiance was set aglow with shades of toffee, terracotta, apricot, blush, and pops of ivory.

Obviously, we’re biased but the heart of any wedding decor lies in its floral arrangements, and this fall celebration was no exception. Picture a spectrum of fall flowers in shades of toffee, terracotta, apricot, blush, and ivory, creating a mesmerizing palette. The bouquets were not just arrangements; they were works of art. The bride's light cascade bouquet stole the show with a large king protea, adding a modern and textural twist. Complementing this, Ruben's boutonniere boasted a classic touch with a pristine white rose.
At the reception, the banquet tables featured bud vase collections, toffee taper candles, floating candles, and teal-light candles in gold containers casting a soft, romantic glow. Artistic Ikebana-style arrangements captivated guests with their unconventional beauty. The remaining tables featured low and lush arrangements in gold compotes, seamlessly blending tradition with a contemporary aesthetic.
Nature's beauty intertwined seamlessly with the artistic theme through velvety brown magnolia greenery. The designs, including a gorgeous garland draping the seating chart (crafted by the bride herself), exuded sophistication and warmth. The timeless magnolia greenery set the stage for a celebration that embraced both the contemporary and the classic.
As guests entered the reception area, they were greeted by a photo op featuring test tube floral screens – a unique and modern touch that added flair to the celebration. One can be sure there were some stellar photos taken here! Congratulations and best wishes, Katie and Ruben!
