Southern garden wedding was created by aiming to capture the essence of the South through the use of shapes and textures. The centerpiece of the design was the grand head table, adorned with custom chargers inspired by the beauty of a garden, delicately embroidered napkins, and exquisite stationery featuring intricate die-cut and letterpress designs. The breathtaking blooms from Vintage Bouquet completed the table’s enchanting look. Hanging umbrellas created an unforgettable focal point, adding a touch of whimsy and transforming the entire ambiance into a show-stopping spectacle.
The custom vinyl dance floor and bar exuded a sense of personalized charm. To continue the garden theme throughout the ceremony, the designers included carefully placed stepping stones to create a pathway to the vibrant flower-adorned arch, infusing the space with a burst of color and natural beauty.
Every detail of the intimate Southern garden wedding was thoughtfully considered, from the choice of linens to the hanging umbrellas and personalized design elements. The result was a celebration that captured the essence of the South, creating an unforgettable experience for the guests.
