European Garden Inspiration at Bella Collina in Orlando, Florida

FEATURED ON RUFFLED BLOG

Back in January I had the wonderful opportunity to escape Ohio’s winter and fly down to Orlando, FL for the Styled Shoot Across America’s Shoot Crawl at Bella Collina. I left the cold blues of Ohio for the delicate warm blue hues of the Florida scenery… clearly I already miss it.

It was a breathtaking experience as each scene transported you to a different part of the world. This flourishing set was one of my favorites as you were surrounded by a sea of French blues and golden blooms everywhere you went.

Blomst Floral Design took the original foliage that covered the rustic venue and enhanced the space with vine like greenery in the custom place card installation, and fresh roses all throughout the tablescape and lounge area. You were transported from one garden to another no matter where you sat.

The table design whispered dimensional elegance with a mixture of velvet and chiffon rentals from Ocean Hark Rentals and Treasury Rentals. The perfectly tied muslin napkin, dipped silverware, lush velvet chair, and staggered candle sticks created eye catching levels that kept your attention.

The stationary by RSVP Love centralized this European theme with an invitation adorned with French embellishments. The whimsical script paired with the floral motif inside the envelope gave the feeling of a flowering garden on a brisk winter day, a design that carried into the multi-tiered cakes by Lubelle’s Cakes.

That being said, the day was made complete with the bride’s rich satin gown with feminine puff sleeves by Eleanor’s Bridal. It moved with grace and created the perfect backdrop to the earthy bouquet. The rainy weather couldn’t dampen the smiles or details of this stunning shoot.
