Colorful Summer Floral Inspiration

This shoot was heavy on florals with tones of pinks, purples and yellow - the perfect summertime palette. A huge floral arch was created for the front of the venue near the iconic fountain, a second floral arch was created for the inside dining area, and the fireplace was covered with florals, as well. In front of the fireplace was a gorgeous multi-tiered cake with acrylic tiers by Lubelle's Cakes. There were stunning details everywhere you looked, and the venue being as gorgeous as it is, only amplified the design.

Advice from the floral designer

To achieve this inspiration, hire a wonderful planning team and floral designer! A sophisticated design like this requires a lot of attention to detail and talent, so hiring top of the line vendors will allow your dream to become a reality. This is especially important because florals truly can make or break your wedding! Start gathering floral inspiration to give to your floral designer so that they can get an idea of what you're looking for. Depending on the season, some types of flowers may be harder to get or unavailable, so be ready to be flexible and choose flowers based on colors instead, if necessary. Trusting your floral designer will be very important in this aspect - they can still take your inspiration and create something similar, while also saving you money by not transporting florals from other places. Keep in mind, you can always repurpose your florals! Your planning and floral teams can move and reuse florals from ceremony to reception so that you can get the most out of your flowers.
