When it comes to your wedding décor, every detail should feel intentional, designed to reflect your personal style, and enhance the experience for your guests. Whether you’re dreaming of a celebration in an Irish castle, a countryside manor or a historic cathedral, there are endless possibilities and choices when it comes to how you want to style your event. In this month’s blog, we’re sharing our advice and inspirational insights on selecting your wedding décor style.
Start with your setting.
Your venue is almost like a guest in itself, providing the backdrop to your special day. A historic Irish castle invites grandeur: statement floral installations, candlelight and refined table styling. An outdoor, walled garden setting might call for a softer, more natural approach, infusing your surroundings with your vision. Let your venue’s character shine and build your décor around its charm and natural ambience.
Choose your colour palette.
A well-chosen colour palette creates cohesion and sets the tone for the entire day. Whether you’re drawn to timeless neutrals, rich earthy hues, or soft romantic pastels, your colour choices should complement both the setting and the season, as well as being a reflection of your personal taste. Incorporate your palette subtly and consistently through your florals, tableware, stationery and even bridal styling for a stunning and harmonious aesthetic.
Flowers add to the feeling.
Florals are key to creating atmosphere. From the first impression at the ceremony entrance to the intimacy of your dinner tables, the right floral design can completely transform a space. Work with your florist to blend texture, movement and seasonal Irish blooms to evoke the feeling you want, be it understated elegance or dramatic romance. Flowers go beyond bouquets and centrepieces to floral staircases, chandeliers and arches, which can be breathtaking focal points.
Add personal details.
The most memorable weddings are those that feel deeply personal. Whether it’s a nod to your heritage, a shared love of travel, or favourite poems and music woven throughout the day, your décor also holds an opportunity to tell your story. Custom signage, monogrammed linens, and unique table plans all add richness and meaning to your Dream Irish Destination Wedding.
