A Backyard Garden Wedding: Sativa and Bobby

Set in the gardens of a friend’s private estate, Sativa and Bobby’s July wedding was a romantic, intimate gathering for their close friends and family. This couple hoped to recreate some of the magic of a midsummer night’s dream for their backyard garden wedding- and we were happy to help. Sativa glowed in a flowing white gown and her bridesmaids wore light pink. The bouquets featured a lush mix of all different kinds of cream and blush roses accented with eucalyptus.

A Backyard Garden Ceremony on the Shores of Lake Washington

The ceremony was held on the shores of Lake Washington, the blue water sparkling in the sun. Sativa and Bobby exchanged vows under a romantic arch draped in cream silk and green smilax vines. At the aisle entrance, large urns filled with viburnum, oakleaf hydrangea, foxglove, and fairy roses were the perfect compliment to the gorgeous gardens on the estate.

Dinner under the most perfect backyard wedding tent

After cocktails and hors d’oeuvres on the terrace, the guests adjourned to the white tent, where long tables beckoned. Green smilax vines hung from the ceiling and sides of the tent, bringing the lush greenery of the gardens in. The long tables were set with green garlands, sweet floral compotes, and an eclectic mix of gold candelabras (provided by the fabulous Vintage Ambiance!). The couple’s wooden sweetheart table sat in the center, adorned with a sumptuous floral and greenery runner, and accented with more taper candles. A magical dinner party, to be sure!
