Wedding Florist’s Dream of Vintage Vibes in Downtown Austin
Have you ever dreamed of a wedding that was vintage and stylish, with an array of modern elements? Well, dreams can come true! Recently, Megan + Kris had the perfect vintage-style wedding at the South Congress Hotel in downtown Austin. The combination of statement florals, candlelight in fluted holders, vintage rugs and velvet tablecloths created an atmosphere that was both romantic and modern. Let’s take a look at all the details of this beautiful wedding.
Statement Florals Make An Impact
The florals used for this wedding were stunning and eye-catching. Bold jewel tones with lush greens created the perfect contrast against the white walls of the South Congress Hotel. I’m obsessed with how things smell, so I made a point to use fragrant flowers like lilac, stock, and lilies throughout the space. Guests couldn’t help but take a whiff as they grabbed a drink.
Candlelight In Fluted Holders
To add to the romantic atmosphere of this vintage wedding, candlelight was placed in fluted holders throughout the venue. This added a soft glow to every corner, creating a beautiful ambiance for guests to enjoy as they mingled or danced around the room. The flickering candles also made for some gorgeous photos!
Vintage Rug & Velvet Tablecloths
The bride and groom chose to incorporate some classic vintage pieces into their decor such as a beautiful vintage rug, velvet tablecloths, and blue toile napkins. The runner informed every other color you see in the wedding florals in this Downtown Austin stunner. These pieces added character and charm to their reception area and gave it an elegant feel that perfectly complemented their overall theme. Feel free to ask your wedding florist for suggestions on hard goods, we know some great options!
There is nothing quite like celebrating love with family and friends! This vintage-style wedding at South Congress Hotel in downtown Austin was definitely one for the books - mixing modern elements with statement florals, candlelight in fluted holders, vintage rugs & velvet tablecloths - it truly had something for everyone! If you’re looking for inspiration for your own special day – look no further than this incredible event!
We had a unique situation that required a quick turnaround for our wedding.
There were a lot of decisions that needed to be made in a short period of time.
Marisa was one of the first and we’re SO glad. She helped us curate exactly the feeling we had envisioned for our day.
Having the floral vision solidified at the beginning got us excited and made other small decisions fall into place. We had a clear direction to go in from the start and Marisa was there every step of the way.
We told her what we wanted and she executed perfectly without needing us to be involved with every decision.
As a couple with a million things to do, we appreciated this more than anything.
If we could give advice to future couples it would be to book your florist first and make it Marisa.
Worth absolutely every penny.
