University Florists created a simple yet elegant tablescape with natural colors as a base and added a pop of brights with peach and coral roses within the arrangements. The rose gold candle votives added throughout the table in a symmetrical manner pulled together to create a romantic vision for the table.

The NC florist completed the wedding tablescape with beautifully delicate small vases placed on the center of each place setting that complimented the overall theme of the table.

The bride wore a uniquely classic Monique Lhuillier gown from Raleigh wedding dress studio, Alexia’s Bridal. The beautiful a-line satin skirt with lace details on the top perfectly paired with this elegant setting. The bridal bouquet was created with matching bright florals from the table arrangements. Pinks and coral roses were tied together with an elegant light green ribbon and could not have looked more stunning held by the bride.

Everything from the florals to the jewelry screamed “elegant” within this shoot. Bailey’s Fine Jewelry adorned the bride in simply classic jewels. It’s hard to decide which is more gorgeous, the beautiful spring colored bridal bouquet or the stunning halo diamond ring!
