Outside the Flower Box
We were inspired by the term ”Contemporary Rustic” and when we began to think about how it could translate into a tablescape for a wedding we decided on tall, dark patina urns paired with simple, white plates, and crisp white napkins. Incorporating lanterns with clean, contemporary lines added a vineyard-esque element without becoming to ‘themey”. The flowers were designed with lush, cream and blush peonies, ranunculus and hellebores. We wove in eucalyptus greenery, delicate navy privet berries to pay homage to vineyard grape vines and details of kumquats to give it a fresh finish. Finally, using hand calligraphed seating cards and menus from Paperfinger added an elegant touch. We couldn’t help but make a bridal bouquet and groom boutonniere to perfectly compliment the spread.
