Jacqueline and Alex tied the knot in a romantic indoor ceremony and had a gorgeous garden-inspired wedding in Casa Real, Pleasanton. The couple said their I Dos in a gorgeous ceremony surrounded by their nearest and dearest family and friends cheering them on.
The couple wanted their wedding to be comfortable, warm while still feeling romantic. They came to me with the idea to create the wedding of their dreams. Together the Dream Flowers creative team incorporated textured florals and crisp designs to capture the essence of the romantic indoor garden at Casa Real. An abundance of lights, candles, gold decor, and rich burgundy tones over the ivory colors created warmth at the Amber Room for the ceremony and added a cozy ambiance for the indoor reception in the Grand Ballroom.
The couple’s mood board or inspiration pictures for the wedding flowers:
Personal Flowers: Bridal bouquet, Maids Bouquets, Boutonnieres, and Wrist corsages
For Jacqueline’s bouquet, we selected white, ivory, and burgundy blooms mixed small dozes of natural colors, with lush greenery cascading down the front. The look of the brides’ bouquet is romantic, flowy, a bit rustic to go with the garden style of the wedding. Here is the flower list used for the wedding bouquet: peony, roses, ranunculus, spray roses, pieris, amaranth, eucalyptus, ruscus, and dusty miller.
The bridesmaids had miniature versions of the bride’s bouquet with more light flowers chosen to nicely frame Jacqueline.
The boutonnieres for the groom and groomsmen designed dark burgundy ranunculus with foliage around the flower, which compliments the composition. The corsages for the family arranged on adjustable wristlets featuring spray roses, bunny tail grass, and berries.
Ceremony Flowers for the indoor wedding: Mantel decor and Arrangements onto pedestals
The mantel had a lush, garden-inspired flower arrangement to set the mood. On each side of the fireplace, we placed centerpieces raised onto pedestals to create more drama for the ceremony spot. Traditionally down the aisle, we set the vases with candles and petals near chairs.
Guests watched in awe as Jacqueline walked down the aisle to meet her husband-to-be by the floral-filled mantel under a romantic drapery flowing down from the ceiling in the classy Amber room at the Casa Real. The bride looked radiant, wearing a delicate gown and holding her bouquet in soft ivory and burgundy hues. The handsome, awaiting groom wore a black suit and greeted his wife-to-be with a big smile as she walked towards him. After the lovely ceremony, the bridal party and wedding guests gathered in the Grand Ballroom of Casa Real for the reception to continue the celebrations.
Casa Real Wedding Reception at the Grand Ballroom:
The setting of the beautiful winery, Casa Real, set the tone for the design of the whole wedding with its classy and traditional, yet romantic feel. To dress up the venue, we added a greenery ceiling above the dance floor and decorated the background behind the sweetheart table. This set up immediately changed the Grand Ballroom in a secret garden place with a feeling being under stars hanging down overhead, making the magical ambiance of the space.
The couple chose to pair black chairs, ivory tablecloth for tables, ivory napkins, and simple china. Each table featured flower centerpiece adorned with lush greenery and delicate ivory and burgundy blooms. There were two types of centerpieces used – tall centerpieces raised on the gold stands and sets of candles adorned with lush greens at the base. The sweetheart table had a lush table arrangement that perfectly complemented the light background and created a beautiful frame for the couple’s pictures.
