A Romantic Blush Wedding at The Howey Mansion

Wedding

Sep 22

There’s something timeless and enchanting about spring weddings at historic venues, and this romantic blush celebration at The Howey Mansion in Howey-in-the-Hills, Florida, was the perfect example of love and beauty intertwined. With soft blush and white florals, lush garden-inspired arrangements, and the grandeur of the mansion as a backdrop, every detail of the day felt like a true spring dream.

A Ceremony on the Mansion Staircase

The ceremony took place on the side of the mansion, where its stone staircase became the perfect stage for “I do.” Lush floral arrangements trailed gracefully down the steps, framing the couple at the top level where they exchanged vows. On the ground level, delicate ground arrangements, floating candles, and petals scattered along the aisle created a romantic pathway for the bride’s entrance. It was a breathtaking blend of architecture and florals, with nature and history beautifully woven together.

Blush Bouquets Full of Spring Blooms

The bridal party carried bouquets that were a delicate smaller simpler version of the bridal bouquet. Each bouquet featured a soft, romantic blend of blush and white blooms: roses, delphinium, scabiosa, astilbe, tulips, and ranunculus. The bride’s bouquet was especially lush, overflowing with textures and layers that perfectly captured the essence of spring - plus, a stunning cascade of orchids. Together, the bouquets created a cohesive yet organic look, radiating timeless romance and modern elegance.

A Courtyard Reception by the Fountain

As the sun began to set, guests were welcomed into the mansion’s courtyard for a reception centered around the historic fountain. The space was filled with a mix of table styles—long, round, and serpentine—which allowed for a creative variety of floral centerpieces. Tall arrangements added height and drama, while low centerpieces brought intimacy to the tables. Candelabras adorned with florals glowed romantically, and bud vases with delicate blooms added sweet finishing touches. The entire courtyard was bathed in candlelight, blending history, romance, and springtime elegance into one unforgettable evening.

A Spring Wedding to Remember

From the first step down the aisle to the last dance in the historic ballroom, this wedding at The Howey Mansion was nothing short of magical. The soft blush palette, luxurious florals, and the charm of the mansion created a setting that felt timeless yet deeply personal. It was a true honor to design florals for such a romantic day—one that will be remembered for its beauty, elegance, and heartfelt love.
