Amanda and Kenny’s fall wedding at Pear Tree Estate paired crisp white florals with fresh green details and dusty blue accents for a celebration that felt classic, elegant and anything but expected. With Amanda herself a professional wedding planner, every detail was beautifully considered—from the ceremony installations to the smallest floral accents throughout the reception.

Amanda carried a lush bouquet filled with Playa Blanca roses, locally grown dahlias, lisianthus, ranunculus, scabiosa, delicate orlaya and textural larkspur. A dusty blue satin ribbon tied the arrangement into the bridal party’s blue gowns, while simple ranunculus boutonnieres kept the men’s florals understated.


The floral design began before guests even entered the ceremony space, with a statement arrangement in the chapel foyer and matching urns leading toward the altar.
At the center of the ceremony design was a lush floral nest surrounding Amanda and Kenny in a meadow of white blooms and greenery as they exchanged vows. The installation was designed in movable sections so the flowers could be repurposed throughout the reception.


The ceremony installations found a second home throughout the reception, appearing behind the head table, near the band stage and between tables to create small garden moments throughout the room.
Smaller compote and bowl arrangements, candlelight, dusty blue linens and floral-patterned details carried the look through the rest of the space. Additional floral accents at the bar and seating chart made the entire reception feel cohesive without every arrangement looking exactly the same.

Amanda and Kenny’s wedding is such a good example of how a restrained color palette can still create an incredibly layered floral design. White blooms and greenery kept the overall look timeless, while blue details and unexpected textures gave the day its own personality.
