Bitong & Zeyuan's Elegant Summertime Wedding

Bitong and Zeyuan got married at The Hillside Estate — the perfect backdrop to an elegant summertime wedding. Silent Tea Studios guided the design of their ceremony and reception to include white and ivory tones in all the decor, as well as touches of blush and taupe for some dimension. We designed floral details throughout the entryway, ceremony, outdoor space and reception to accentuate the romantic, feminine feel of our newlyweds’ celebration!

An elevated arrangement on a welcome table made a statement in the entryway, along with photos of the bride and groom. A welcome sign was also accented with a lush ground arrangement of romantic and delicate flowers.

A gold circle arch was a statement in the ceremony at the altar, and we designed large floral clusters that were placed asymmetrically but created a balanced look — featuring Hydrangea, Roses, Stock and greenery tucked in between. The aisle was decorated with candles and white Rose petals — a simple yet impactful way to add another fresh accent of flowers.

In the outdoor area where cocktail hour was held, we added a floral spray arrangement on the mantle. A simple touch to tie in this charming courtyard area — complete with string lights — with the rest of the event.

For the reception, we moved the ceremony arch to frame the sweetheart table and turn it into the focal point of the room, along with ground arrangements in front. Guest tables held low and lush compote arrangements in etched glass vases. A cascade down the cake that flowed into a floral circle around the base made for another delicate, ornate touch.

The bride and bridesmaids’ bouquets were classic with soft floral textures like Sweet Pea, Astilbe and Spray Roses, with touches of greenery for a natural look.
