Make This Look: Elegant

When it comes to weddings, elegance and timelessness are synonymous. If you're dreaming of a wedding design that will still look stunning in photos decades from now, there's no better place to start than with classic white and green. This combination never goes out of style and creates a look that exudes refinement, beauty, and simplicity. 

Here’s how you can "make this look" with timeless elegance as your inspiration.

What Defines Elegant Wedding Style? 

Elegance is about understated beauty and cohesion. It’s not achieving a look that’s overly ornate or distracting but one that uses clean lines, balanced textures, and thoughtfully chosen elements. White is a versatile and universally loved color, representing purity and sophistication. Paired with green, which signifies growth and tranquility, the duo becomes effortlessly timeless. 

Why white and green? These shades aren't just easy on the eyes; they also offer endless flexibility. Whether you're celebrating in a modern urban venue or an outdoor garden, white and green adapt seamlessly to any setting.

Step 1. Focus on Florals 

When building your wedding look, florals are one of the most impactful elements. To recreate the classic elegance of white and green, focus on these essential floral picks:

• White Roses (like Playa Blanca) - A go-to for refined romance. Their soft petals and subtle fragrance make them a bridal favorite. 

• Ranunculus - With their layered, delicate blooms, these stems add texture and depth to bouquets and arrangements. 

• Snowberry - Perfect for greenery that balances your florals without feeling overwhelming. 

• Lisianthus - These pristine white blooms are a simple yet stunning addition to any arrangement. 

• Ming Fern and Eucalyptus - Use greenery to add dimension and fresh vibrance while maintaining the minimalism of the palette.  

• Anemone - Known for their striking black centers and bold, delicate petals, these flowers bring a dramatic yet elegant touch to arrangements. 

• Astrantia - With their star-shaped clusters and unique texture, astrantia adds an enchanting, whimsical element to bouquets while complementing other blooms beautifully. 

Adding sliced figs to the tablescape brought an unexpected yet elegant visual and textural element to the overall design. Their deep, rich hues of purple and burgundy beautifully complemented the delicate white florals and lush greenery, creating a harmonious balance. The natural, organic shape of the figs added a luxurious yet approachable feel, drawing the eye and sparking conversation among guests. This small but thoughtful detail layered warmth and sophistication into the tablescape, elevating it to a truly memorable centerpiece.

Consider combining these blooms into cascading bouquets, lush centerpieces, or delicate aisle markers. If you're unsure about quantities or arrangement ideas, consult with a floral expert to guide you based on your dream design.
