Jacklyn + Chandler's Classic Southern Ceremony and Reception

This week, we’re thrilled to share some details on a sweet yet refined “southern charm” style wedding for couple Jacklyn and Chandler. We took Jacklyn’s request for all-white flowers with an organic touch and designed bright, lush and classic statement pieces for both the ceremony and reception. The couple’s chosen venue, Dove Ridge Vineyard, was a big part of the overall rustic-yet-still-modern feel, with an outdoor covered ceremony space and a spacious reception room with huge windows and touches of warmth in the dark wood ceiling beams.

We had a beautiful outdoor space to work with for this couple’s ceremony, on a covered patio overlooking a stunning view. The fireplace served as a built-in focal point, and we embellished the mantel with a bright arrangement of white blooms and greenery. For some more drama, we lined the aisle with large arrangements that sat on modern white stands, and that included cascading garlands down the sides.

The reception was full of bright and fresh floral elements, from a statement overhead garland on the head table to a semicircle of ground arrangements surrounding the cake table. For the guest tables, we designed tall, manicured arrangements that sat on clear vases and created a great element of airiness. The head table garland was more of an installation than anything, and stretched 40 ft across!

The white bouquets for this bridal party were just as classic and tailored as the event design, and created the most beautiful effect with the bride’s white gown and her bridesmaids’ taupe dresses. These bouquets were made up of Peonies, Ranunculus and roses, with just a touch of greenery! We adored this couple and the way their classic southern-inspired wedding had just the right amount of drama!
