Sweet Wedding Bouquet

French wedding florist, Fleuravi designed this spring wedding bouquet.  It is filled with pampas grass, a gorgeous protea flower, garden peach roses, and striking anemones. Scroll down to see how the bridal bouquet florals are incorporated into the reception decor.

GROOM SUIT IDEAS

The groom wore a light suit to compliment the color palette of the day. He's wearing men's accessories from Le Colonel.

Pastel Wedding Reception

This French wedding team kept with the pastel color palette at the reception, from the soft pink napkins to the floral wedding centerpieces. Fleuravi placed single florals in bud vases around the table and created magnificent arrangements in gold vases that you can see below. All of the florals used matched the bridal bouquet to keep the design seamless and on-point. 

Doesn't the table looks like it belongs at the Château des Ravatys. It is actually a rental from Velvet Rendez-vous. You know you have a good design team when the rentals look like they belong at the venue. 

The beautiful pastries were created by chef Henri Desmoulins. We adore the copper ribbon around the bottom of the cake. The color plays perfectly with the stone in the background.
