Your wedding venue sets the tone for your big day. The right wedding flowers bring that space to life. At Flowers at Lakeside, we help couples create stunning flowers that complement their venue’s architecture, scenery, and overall vibe. Whether you’re planning a lakeside ceremony, garden wedding, or elegant ballroom affair, matching your wedding flowers to your venue style ensures a cohesive and breathtaking look.
Let’s walk through how to match your florals to five popular venue styles using expert tips from our designers.
Lakeside weddings are inherently romantic. The natural scenery offers a peaceful backdrop filled with light, water, and greenery.
At Flowers at Lakeside, we recommend soft, flowing arrangements that feel organic and effortless. Think cascading greenery, fluffy peonies, and pastel roses.
For ceremony arches, we often use eucalyptus, Italian ruscus, and florals like lisianthus and ranunculus. These blends create texture without overwhelming the view.
Floral runners along dock railings or floating floral arrangements on the water can add extra magic. Loose hand-tied bouquets in soft tones pair beautifully with outdoor settings.
Wedding flowers couples love most always begins with the venue. And nothing enhances a lakeside setting like thoughtfully curated florals.
Garden venues call for florals that feel whimsical and natural. Here, the line between venue and floral décor often blurs beautifully.
We love using seasonal blooms like tulips, ranunculus, daisies, and delphinium. These flowers feel like they’ve been plucked from the garden itself.
Color palettes can range from pastel and romantic to vibrant and bold. We always suggest adding movement to garden arrangements—trailing vines, fluttery blooms, and textured fillers.
At Flowers at Lakeside, we design garden wedding florals that feel light, joyful, and inspired by nature itself.
If your venue is a classic ballroom, go big and bold. Tall arrangements, ornate vessels, and dramatic color palettes shine in elegant indoor settings.
We often work with roses, hydrangeas, orchids, and calla lilies for these weddings. Structured shapes and symmetrical designs work well in formal settings.
Tall centerpieces and aisle arrangements add grandeur without cluttering the space. You can also line the head table with lush garlands for a luxe feel.
Wedding flower arrangements in ballrooms are all about balance—glamorous but not overpowering, lush yet refined.
Gazebo weddings offer charm and intimacy. These ceremonies often happen in shaded garden areas or near the water.
Our team at Flowers at Lakeside recommends focusing floral energy on the structure itself. Frame the gazebo with floral arches, trailing vines, and focal flowers like roses, anemones, or peonies.
Since gazebos are small spaces, every detail matters. We use color to highlight the couple while keeping the backdrop natural and inviting.
Petal-lined aisles and matching bouquets complete the look. These wedding flowers are romantic, delicate, and picture-perfect.
If your venue has rustic or desert vibes, florals can add both warmth and contrast.
We use dried wedding flowers, pampas grass, sunflowers, and wild greenery in these designs. For color, terracotta, ivory, blush, and dusty rose work beautifully.
Flowers at Lakeside specializes in textured, asymmetrical bouquets and boho centerpieces for rustic venues.
Consider hanging installations, flower hoops, and wooden floral backdrops to match the space. These flowers reflect the venue’s natural charm without feeling forced.
Earthy arrangements ground the celebration while adding softness and beauty.
