Your wedding ceremony is the most important part of your wedding day. Setting the scene and creating a ‘special’ place with the right atmosphere to say those important words ‘I do’, can easily be brought to life through your styling.

Be it barefoot at the beach, on top of a stunning hinterland hilltop vista, or underneath an ancient fig tree with ocean views, a beautifully styled ceremony can be created anywhere. Your ceremony style sets the tone and vibe for your entire day. Whether you’re after a day that feels soft and romantic, elaborate and formal or relaxed and simple, the options are endless and the look and feel can be created with just a few pieces, including an arbour, chairs, floral arrangements and decorative details.

COASTAL ROMANCE

A crisp white palette with touches of soft pastel tones, elegant florals and shell details set with a simple tipi arbour can create a relaxed and romantic vibe, perfect for the boho bride.

TROPICAL LUXE

Summer ceremonies with a tropical feel can be created with lots of lush greenery and simple details such as coral, coconuts, raffia and bamboo. Light timber textures are the perfect base to add layers of green foliage, white floral details and pops of gold metallics resulting in a relaxed summery luxe vibe.

ROMANTIC BOHO

A more modern rustic ceremony setting with boheme elements can be created with the use of natural greyed timber textures and deeper bold colours and earthy tones. These can be incorporated in your floral installations, layering in colourful rugs and cushions, raw timber textures and muted metallic tones and feathers.

MAKE YOUR ARBOUR COUNT

Your wedding arbour doesn't have to be the traditional arch decorated with flowers. There are an array of different style structures in all shapes, styles and colours! It can be a simple wooden arch, fabric draped from the trees, a simple tipi, screen back drop or a striking floral installation masterpiece. Take the opportunity to create something that represents you and your style. The limit really is your imagination.
