Anna and Marco, a young couple living in Milan, chose the back drop of Lake Garda for their late summer wedding.  For their civil ceremony they had absolutely fallen in love with the Italian gardens of the Renaissant Palazzo Gonzaga. By contrast a natural modern garden overlooking a beautiful vineyard was the chosen location for the reception.

To show off Anna’s fairy-tale gown I created a very elegant romantic bouquet made from white eustoma, false goat’s beard, bouvardia and light pink eustoma. A delicate white flower hair wreath completed the look.

I created romantic natural bouquets for the ceremony and the table decorations.

The palette of delicate peach, pink, white with a touch of intense raspberry and  blue-violet  was ideal for the late summer atmosphere. I found the perfect raspberry  tone in  blackberries and blue-violet  sea holly.  I like adding different textures such as small pearl-like berries with soft velvet carnations and roses.
