Whether you’re exchanging vows beneath an ancient tree, surrounded by rose-laced arches, or dancing under twinkling fairy lights on a velvet lawn, a garden wedding offers a unique sense of intimacy, natural beauty, and timeless charm. Here are some top tips to enhance your celebrations… LET NATURE SET THE MOOD THE ART OF GARDEN TABLE STYLING GARDEN COSY SETTINGS FLORALS THAT FEEL EFFORTLESS FLORAL & HERB-INFUSED SIPS unsplash.com/@anitaaustvika Draw inspiration from the surroundings to create a look that feels effortless and cohesive. Soft pastel shades like blush pink, dusty rose, lavender, sky blue, buttercream yellow and mint green always work beautifully to evoke romance. For an understated, refined aesthetic, ivory, champagne, sage, and warm taupe blend seamlessly with greenery. For playful settings, opt for pops of coral, peach, sunflower yellow and fuchsia. Imagine long tables dressed in crisp linens, vintage brass candlesticks, and florals spilling from every surface. Add delicate touches like personalised place cards or potted herbs, which smell wonderful and double as thoughtful favours. Layering plates adds depth and elegance: start with a large charger plate, followed by a dinner plate and salad plate. A napkin tied with twine and a sprig of lavender offers a beautiful finishing touch. unsplash.com/@anitaaustvika Set up cosy lounge areas where guests can relax and reconnect. Comfy sofas, soft rugs and vintage cushions will create a welcoming vibe, especially paired with ambient lighting and parasols. Garden wedding florals should feel loose, unstructured, and wildly romantic. Let arrangements spill across celebrations, from table runners to arches, signage, pathways and hanging installations. An outdoor bar is the perfect finishing touch for your garden wedding. Custom cocktails infused with herbs and florals, think lavender lemonade, rosemary gin fizz or rosewater spritz. unsplash.com/@ahtziri unsplash.com/@_bilinskaya_ unsplash.com@anitaaustvika sunsplash.com@jsbco VENUE STYLING 71
