A French-Inspired Elopement

Flowers· Wedding

10 Jan

With golden rolling vineyards and sophisticated farm-chic aesthetics, this dreamy California wedding destination will have your heart fluttering for days. To pack in even more pretty, event designer, Amanda Landon, is inspiring us with an elopement that is cheerfully yellow, romantic, and perfectly provincial inspired by the natural beauty of France’s Champagne region. Oui! Take a seat at the table and you’ll feel right at home in France (i.e. California’s Paso Robles) surrounded by the je ne sais quoi of the countryside. Better yet! You can get a real life taste of the French fairytale this July for our Champagne & Castles Retreat.

“One might say that the theme for this rich and memorable elopement at the stunning Hammersky Vineyards in California could easily be called ‘French Heritage in Vineyard’ – inspired by the importance of the of the bride and groom’s heritage, and the beautiful similarities between the Champagne region of France and California’s Central Coast wine region.

The special accent piece on the invitation suite was a hand-drawn map, depicting the couple & their families journey from France to California. The entire suite was handcrafted on delicate vintage paper, complete with stamps from The Palace of Versailles and the like. With a recent trip to France still fresh on my mind, for the tablescape, I chose to include the vibrant yellows inspired from the exteriors and stunning gardens at the Palace of Versailles. The lace pattern and muted tones of the tablescape were meant to evoke the elegance, tradition, and refinement of the French culture.” – Designer, Amanda Landon

    Thanks for sharing such a great article with us. I loved wedding dress, floral arrangements, and all the setting. Photos are also clear and gorgeous. I also visited a website named Whole Blossoms which delivers fresh wedding flowers at the best price.

Reminiscing back to the summer of 2018 when @joyproctor and I traveled with an inspiring group of women to France for the Champagne & Castles  #heartsafluttertour. In the Loire Valley, we had the opportunity to meet up with @fleuropean for a flowering design session at our castle (yes, we stayed in a castle!). What a treat to be able to learn and be inspired by Emily's dreamy floral aesthetic.

Back home here in Los Angeles, California, I'm over-the-moon to be able to share a bit of the @fleuropean magic with you through @the_floral_pantry’s February Floristry Kit. Complete with absolutely everything you need to design at home (flowers, tools, vessels, tutorials), your heart will surely flutter from this dream floral design experience. 🌿

Pre-order is now available on The Floral Pantry website. Kits ship just in time for Valentine's Day! 💕
