Falling in Love with Autumn Weddings | Datura – A Modern Garden

Thursday, August 26th, 2010

Are you ready for fall?  I know, sometimes it’s hard to let go of the summer sun, but what’s more cozy than the crisp autumn air and the cozy, intimate feeling it brings?  To get you in the mood, just check out the incredible design work by Connecticut floral designer, Datura – A Modern Garden.

Tony from Datura: Jenny and Tom were married at Jenny’s parent’s house in Connecticut – a stunning home that sits nestled in the trees atop a hill. For the ceremony, they chose a spot right in front of the pasture, hoping that the horses would come and be a part of the festivities. We decorated our custom iron arch with tons of southern smilax vine, then accented with purple kale and amaranthus for a natural, earthy look. The aisle was lined, from the house to the rows of benches, with our iron lantern stands. One crook of each stand held a floating candle, the other a simple design of kale, rosehips and amaranthus accented with cranberries.

Rustic Wedding Inspiration

Thursday, August 12th, 2010

The images below fit the style of rustic weddings to an absolute tee! So much greenery is used to create a real, natural setting. The birch tree candles and moss add so much detail giving off the earthy vibe. With neutral accents and earth tones to make up the color palette, there’s no going wrong with nature. I don’t think that cotton boutonniere could be more unique! For more wedding inspiration, head to the galleries on myKPW!
