Romantic wedding tablescape featuring earthy grasses, pale yellow florals, wine, and family-style dining under soft candlelight.

The tablescape was designed with a cottage core aesthetic in mind, embracing a romantic, eclectic mix of elements that feel both warm and inviting. The subtley-patterned tablecloth set the foundation, allowing the mix n’ match napkins to bring in a sense of playfulness while still maintaining a cohesive look.

I wanted the table to feel abundant and welcoming, so we incorporated family-style dining elements like grapes, bread, and cheese, along with wine on the table, creating a sense of community and shared experience. The mist coloured taper candles and organic floral bud vases, featuring soft yellow blooms and earthy grasses, added a touch of elegance and whimsy without overpowering the natural beauty of the setting. The addition of wood tones in the butter plate was intentional, bringing warmth and grounding the design with an earthy, natural feel. Wedding Designer, Rebekah Brontë
