It’s safe to say that the artistic vision that wedding floral design involves is one of the parts of our job that we adore the most. Working with Shannon of Shannon Rose Events on this event at JAREH Ranch was such a joy — this Texas-sunset-inspired design turned out to be a stunning statement that still seems so timeless. In a beautiful outdoor space, we put together a ceremony setup and a tented reception for the perfection celebration under the Texas sky!

The ceremony setup was simple, with two rows of benches for seating and facing a gorgeous pond and landscape of hills and trees. We designed wildflower-inspired ground pieces to line the aisle, which had the effect of blending in but still brought in pops of color and great elements of volume and texture.

For the tented reception, we designed a luxurious archway that framed the entrance. We used lots of orange, mustard and brown tones, but threw in some lavender to accurately capture that sunset color palette! This installation was definitely the focal point of the reception, and made for a grand welcome. We designed large compote arrangements in white stone vases to decorate the guest tables on top of stunning golden-yellow velvet tablecloths. One last floral touch was a floral garland around the neck of a special guest — a sweet horse that lives on the ranch!

This Texan and autumnal concept was both warm and refined, from the classic-style invited with rope detailing to the brown rattan-detailed chairs. The final statement element was the bridal bouquet, full of rose varieties, Ranunculus and Clematis. The mix of cool lavender and warm oranges made for a fresh take on the traditional fall palette, and our bride looked so stunning in her tulle-detailed gown and with this bouquet at her side!
