Contemporary, classic, timeless, romantic, moody, intimate. Patricia and Chris had a clear vision of what they wanted in the floral design for their event. The mood was a subtle mix of dark foliage and lighter flowers, in shades of white, nudes and pinks with a touch of lilac. It was important to keep a harmony between moody spirit and freshness.

We were really inspired by the famous Caffe latte garden roses which are truly a splendor! We were still in peony season and were lucky enough to find some gorgeous varieties at the flower market with silky petals and full hearts. The bride's bouquet was rather round, harmonious with contrasting dark and light colours but also ultra romantic with beautiful garden roses. The bridesmaids all had a similar bouquet to the bride's, in a smaller size. We finished each bouquet with a hand dyed silk ribbon in our studio. We love these shades of old rose so much!

The ceremony took place in the gardens of the villa, in a tree-lined space that was truly suitable for exchanging vows. We created a two-part setting with effect arrangements in Medicis vases from our container collection. Bouquets of chairs and sleek black lanterns enhanced the ceremony aisle.

The day's hardest blow was the rain that came down at the end of the cocktail party. The plan A initially planned in the courtyard of the villa was replaced by plan B. The tables were set up indoors, in the large living room. But this plan B turned out to be just as magical! A table runner of foliage and flowers was perfect for the banquet tables.

Light became paramount in this enclosed space and so we brought in all the candles and candle holders we could find in the villa, in addition to those originally planned in the dinner styling.

Isla and Smith had a stunning welcome sign planned! A beautiful round design and modern graphics greeted guests as they entered the gardens. We brought our floral touch to the design.
