1. BRIGHT AND BOLD

We’re obsessed with this bright and punchy display of styling and blooms! Featuring custom stationery by The Goodsmiths. Reflexed roses and lush greenery were brought to life by Anatomy of Flowers to add a pop of colour into the rustic space, perfectly contrasted against the stark white walls and tablecloths. We’re all about pink, and we’re in love with the variety of hues captured in this tablescape. The soft pink linen napkins added a dreamy touch against those peach ceramic plates which are complimented by their unique shape. Chefs kiss!

 

The team at The Goodsmiths added some extra wow factor with the contrasting darker hues in the  champagne coupes and water glasses. There’s so much to adore about this wedding styling and design!

2. ROMANTIC REVERIE

If your vision is soft, dreamy and romantic, this one’s for you!

 

Be inspired by this heavenly design, featuring soft tulle runners lining the length of each timber table, as well as glass tealight candles to add warmth and splendour to the space. Ikebana bowls are rising in popularity in 2022, and for good reason! These distinctive floral designs feature blooms bursting from a small ceramic bowl, and create intrigue and awe from guests who are used to the common arrangement. Place a few of these beauties along your guest tables and when paired with the rest of these elegant additions, you’re bound to create a showstopper! For this tablescape, we recommend opting for soft hues of peach, white and cream with a pop of rust throughout for contrast.

3. MINIMALISTS DELIGHT

There’s so much to love about this one! For lovers of all things minimalist and rustic, why not opt for the most dainty touches throughout your space. This tablescape from Gather & Tailor featured tulle runners that we are obsessed with, paired perfectly with pillar candles encased in hurricane vases.

 

Both of these elements placed alongside delicate bud vases created an ornate yet simple display to fill the space. We adore this set up because it shows that minimalism doesn’t always need to equate to plain or boring! Need another idea? Add some warm, dreamy lighting to the venue for another touch of romance, through festoon lights or string fairy light!

 

It’s so easy to add some sleek, clean touches throughout an already beautiful, rustic space.

4. THE ALL ROUNDER

Hello beauty, we’ve got an orange crush!

 

Pairing the magic of blazing colours with lush, earthy greenery is on trend this year and it doesn’t take a genius to understand why.

 

This set up made our jaws drop, highlighting just how much of an impact a ghost plinth installation can have as a backdrop. Anatomy of Flowers carefully crafted these vaseless florals designs to sit atop, and with the help of a few pillar candles to set the scene, our couple was delighted to tie the knot in this dreamy space! If you’re loving the idea of a plinth installation,  take the time to explore all of your options, from solid block plinths, to gold or black metal plinths with florals and greenery growing throughout it, as each will help in creating a unique backdrop to frame you lovebirds.

 

Then, allow a member of your team to repurpose your flowers for the reception space, creating a bold photo destination for guests. This wedding styling is the all rounder – perfectly combining colour, vibrance, romance and modernity for the couple who want it all.
