With an array of endless styles, themes and visions, it’s no surprise that many couples still opt for a traditional wedding. From honouring family heritage to participating in meaningful rituals and celebrating with a sense of formality, there’s beauty in timelessness. If that resonates with you, focus on elegant styling that will remain classic for years to come. Whether you’re tying the knot in a ballroom or an elegant hotel, here’s some advice on how to weave traditional elements into your day... unsplash.com@jsbco FLORAL FANTASY COLOUR HARMONY PERSONAL TOUCHES AISLE STYLE ELEGANT TABLESCAPES Focus on timeless blooms to create a soft and romantic look. For centrepieces, opt for low or tall floral displays with plenty of greenery for added texture and depth. Echo these arrangements throughout your setting, at the welcome table, bar area or on signage, for a cohesive feel. When it comes to your colour scheme, the goal is to complement and not compete with the style of your venue. If your location already features rich detailing, lean into a palette that enhances it. Ivory and gold are ideal for truly elegant looks. If your venue is a blank canvas, create a soft and dreamy aesthetic. Display favourite engagement shoot photos or frame love letters and travel keepsakes around the venue. Add meaningful quotes to your signage and menus for a charming touch. Frame your ceremony entrance with draping, arrangements and fairylights. Line the aisle with Chiavari or cross-back chairs, floral arrangements, candles in glass cylinders and petals down the aisle. For your wedding breakfast, create a romantic, conversation-friendly atmosphere with round tables adorned in luxury linens, soft candlelight, elegant chargers, and napkins tied with sprigs of rosemary. unsplash.com/@fearvi VENUE STYLING 69
