[field title=”The Inspiration”]The inspiration for this enchanting bridal brunch blossomed from the natural beauty of the berry farm and garden venue. Nestled amidst lush greenery, the setting provided a picturesque backdrop that perfectly complemented our vision. Textured linens, inspired by the charming home onsite, added a touch of garden chic elegance to each table. These linens, with their intricate patterns and rich textures, seamlessly blended with the venue’s surroundings.
To honor the essence of berry picking, we wove berry colors throughout the décor, infusing shades of deep red, vibrant purple, and soft pink into the floral arrangements, table settings, and even the menu. The result was a harmonious blend of nature and design, creating an atmosphere of effortless sophistication. This beautiful integration of elements paid tribute to the farm’s heritage while celebrating the joyful occasion of a bridal brunch.[/field]

The expansive grounds allowed for various scenic spots to host different aspects of the brunch, from the elegant dining area to cozy corners for intimate conversations.

[field title=”Florals & Decor”]The inspiration for this charming bridal brunch was drawn from the vibrant beauty of the berry farm and garden venue. The picturesque setting, with its lush greenery and blooming flora, provided the perfect canvas for our design. Monochromatic florals in bright red, pink, and purple were chosen to echo the rich hues of the berries, creating a vivid and cohesive theme that celebrated the essence of the venue.[/field]
[field title=”Favorite Design Element”]One of our favorite design elements from the berry brunch was the charming touch of baskets used for picking, which added a delightful and personalized flair to the event. Each guest received a beautifully woven basket, reminiscent of the berry-picking experience that inspired the theme. The baskets were more than just practical accessories; they were thoughtfully adorned with custom name tags, adding a unique and personal touch.
The custom name tags, elegantly tied onto each basket with delicate ribbon, featured guests’ names in stylish calligraphy. This small but meaningful detail not only enhanced the aesthetic of the brunch but also provided a memorable keepsake for each attendee. The combination of the baskets and name tags created a whimsical and cohesive design element, perfectly blending the theme of berry picking with the sophisticated atmosphere of the garden brunch.[/field]
[field title=”Tips To Pull Off The Look”]Some of our tips to pull off this look include:
1) Mix and Match Textures: Use a variety of materials to create the most dynamic and visually appealing table setting.
2) Diverse Materials: Incorporate a variety of textures to add visual interest. Use velvet or satin napkins paired with rustic wooden or woven chargers. Combine delicate lace or embroidered napkin rings with sleek glassware and polished flatware. This blend of materials creates a rich and engaging table setting that reflects the elegance and charm of the berry theme.
3) Greet guests with personalized welcome bags filled with on-theme treats. Include items such as mini jars of homemade berry jam, berry-flavored candies, and custom berry-patterned napkins or coasters. Add a personal touch with a thank-you note or a small guide to the day’s events, all presented in a charming, berry-themed tote or basket. These welcome bags not only set the tone for the brunch but also offer guests a delightful and memorable keepsake.[/field]
