A fully-flowered ceremony, multi-site reception, and a palette of pinks, peaches and corals that ranged from soft and romantic to vibrant and bold — Sara and Payson’s springtime wedding at The Hillside Estate was such a fabulous event we were thrilled to help bring to life through floral design.

Starting with the ceremony, we designed a disconnected arch that grew up from either side of the altar, and a meadow of ground arrangements surrounding it on either side — and all the way down the aisle. These aisle arrangements included taller statement blooms like Delphinium, and made the whole space feel like a lush garden, especially with the gorgeous backdrop of the venue grounds through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

For a cocktail hour following the ceremony, held outside, a large urn arrangement sat on top of the circular bar for a statement. The venue entry also had large arrangements for framing — some at the base of the staircases that created a flowing effect.

The reception was held in the venue’s ballroom and two tents outside, that guests moved throughout for different parts of the night. In the ballroom, we decorated the rectangular guest tables with an elegant mix of compote arrangements, bud vases and candles, and other touches like white candles and linens, with a pop of pink in the place settings made this feel so clean and refined. Ground arrangements also accented the ends of these tables to continue that garden feel.

The reception extended into a tent for dancing, where guests entered through a double-archway of flowers and greenery of all textures that marked the transition into a dance party with an oversized floral halo hanging from the ceiling around the chandelier as a centerpiece, along with small arrangements paired with candles on tables throughout. Two trees also helped anchor and transform the space.

A second tent was decked out with a disco ball and floral ceiling installation — we hung flowers and fabric in a gradient of pink, purple, orange and yellow and disco balls in various sizes and heights. An oversized floral garland accented the bar for even more flowers.

The bridal party wore neutral gowns, so pink and coral blooms in the bouquets were a pop of color. Poppies, Double Tulips and Sweet Pea gave these the perfect elegance and playfulness.
