Theme and Details: Muted Tones + Textures

Whites and nudes were the perfect colour palette for highlighting the many textured decorative details, from the wheat stalks in the bridal bouquet to the lace and tulle on the wedding gown. Floral options were kept to a minimum, mostly in white with a pop of burnt orange, and surrounded by gold branches, candles, gilded candlesticks, more wheat stalks and wooden elements. Together, they gave the boho chic theme an ethereal feel that was punctuated by such surprises as the bride’s bold vampy lip.

Ceremony

In an intimate ceremony surrounded by family and friends, the groom and bride became man and wife. Alila Villas Uluwatu in Bali was the perfect venue, the sunlight casting a dreamy sheen over everything. Large bouquets of baby’s breath and floral bushels marked the front of the aisle, adding a touch of drama. Meanwhile, the bridal party’s outfits complemented the newlyweds, with elegant blouse and skirt combos for the bridesmaids and deep blue suits for the gentlemen.

Don’t stress out! It’s your big day and it’s a day to celebrate and have fun.

Reception

“Our theme was ethereal with a touch of bohemian. I chose the venue because of its tranquillity, and with a mostly white theme, added texture in the form of tulle and pearls,” said Jessica.

As day turned to night, the entire party was transformed with magical fairy lights. Long picnic tables, dramatic candelabras and tall stalks of wheat were all part of the bohemian vibe, while the beautiful trees, ocean air and crashing waves in the background helped to ensure it was a party to remember.
