With courtesy to the black-tie wedding theme featuring classic little black dress silhouettes, our flower team relied on the clean white lines comprising of curvature derived from the opulent orchid to tell a story of minimal and refined elegance. Although each flower accent and arrangement were interwoven with intentional attention to detail, our favorite floral design moment was the botanical orchid flower fountain. Because the outdoor ceremony showcased a natural water-stained courtyard statuesque fountain highlighting a tiered splashing yet calming waterfall, echoing the cascading orchid bridal bouquet, the overflowing orchids allowed our floral design to have a nonlinear and unconventional movement; thus, creating a symbiotic harmonious earthy display for our couple’s outdoor minimal courtyard wedding ceremony.
