[field title=”Design / Vibe / Vision”]The wedding ceremony was set against a stunning vineyard backdrop, with white and light nude florals and plenty of greenery to complement the natural beauty of the location. The floral arrangements were designed to look like they were growing from the ground, avoiding the use of floral foam for a more sustainable approach. The bride’s dress was elegantly simple, ensuring she stood out against the stunning floral and landscape backdrop.

For the cocktail hour, natural and raw materials were used for the furniture, including wicker, natural wood, linen upholstery, and fresh flowers in recycled paper vases. The furniture was designed to match the pool deck and the overall aesthetic of the hotel.

The dinner reception was a modern and contemporary affair, with a custom-made wooden pergola creating the perfect natural vine structure for the occasion. The florals featured a touch of orange to match the color of the old manor venue, with 100% linen napkins and plenty of taper candles and tealights. The cutlery, china service, and glassware were carefully chosen to match the menu and the overall style of the event. Lounge areas and a bar structure were set up to create a club-like atmosphere, while the audio-visual team did an incredible job with the DJ set.
