2. Organic Elements & Loose Florals - Feathers and agate and greenery oh my! You’ll see organic elements popping up everywhere this season. Brides are choosing boquets that contain loose florals and other organic ornamental decor to walk down the aisle with. Natural, wandering garland will be meandering across tables to add an organic touch to long communal style tables. Terra Malia Designs happens to be one of our favorite florists and she specializes in sustainable, free flowing arrangements to spruce up your venue space.
3. Beverages to Welcome Your Guests - Nothing says “welcome” like lemony, mint iced tea or fresh squeezed lemonade. It’s the perfect touch to greet your guests as they arrive at your ceremony. You’re setting the tone for the remainder of the evening by showing your love and appreciation of their attendance through quenching their thirst with farm fresh garnishes in delicious beverages. After all, hydration is important for the long night of dancing up a storm that is ahead. We can even provide spa water at the end of the evening to re-hydrate after all those specialty cocktails we’ll be serving for you and your guests.
4. Patterned & Textured Linens and China - You’ll see more and more patterns, bold colors and textured linens, table drapes and china this wedding season.
