A Modern Spring Wedding at Scottsdale’s Camelback Inn with Soft Pastels, a Pop of Bright Pink, and Taupe Accents
Set against the desert backdrop of Scottsdale’s Camelback Inn, this spring wedding balances softness with structure. The palette leans into muted pastels layered with warm taupe tones, creating a look that feels elevated and romantic. Florals feature a mix of blush, pale lavender, creamy neutrals and a fun pop of bright pink. Garden roses, ranunculus, and seasonal blooms come together in loose, textural arrangements that feel organic without looking undone.
The ceremony structure was adorned with simple, asymmetrical designs and light mauve draping, letting the beautiful backdrop of Camelback Mountain speak for itself. Reception tables carry the same understated approach. Low floral centerpieces in soft hues pair with warm linens, neutral stone table numbers, and taupe candles. Every detail works together without competing, allowing the space to feel natural and not overdone. This wedding is a perfect example of how spring color can feel modern and timeless at the same time.

A Chic Contemporary Wedding at the Overture Center for the Arts with Muted Hues and Café Latte Roses
From our first consultation, it was clear that Kelsey and Zack had an incredible energy and a strong sense of trust in the process. They came in with a clear vision, but were also open to letting us guide the floral design, which always leads to the best results. When couples trust our experience and knowledge of flowers, it allows us to do what we do best and bring their vision to life in a way that feels authentic and intentional.
Their design direction leaned chic and minimal, with a soft, neutral color palette. To keep the look from feeling flat, we introduced an earthy café latte rose for contrast and warmth. That subtle pop added depth while still staying true to the refined, muted aesthetic they were drawn to.
Below is a look at the floral varieties we used throughout the day:
Focal Flowers: Cafe Latte Rose, Ranunculus, Quicksand Rose, Playa Blanca Rose
Gesture Flowers: Campanula, Lisianthus, Carnation, Snapdragon, Spirea, Stock
Filler & Foliage: Blueberry Bush, Gypsophila, Variegated Pittosporum, Leather Leaf, Smilax

A Bold and Colorful Summer Wedding at The Ovation Chicago with Mustard Yellow, Apricot, and Coral Blooms
As a florist, it makes such a difference working with planners who truly take the time to understand our design style, how we work, and the level of care we put into every wedding. Midwestern Bride has always been that kind of partner, and it is genuinely a pleasure working with their team. We collaborated often throughout 2022 across Chicago, Madison, and Milwaukee during one of the busiest wedding seasons we have experienced. Even with the pace and volume of events, everything ran smoothly and thoughtfully. Their team is organized, efficient, and incredibly dependable.
Before recommending a florist, Midwestern Bride carefully considers each couple’s needs, budget, and overall style to make sure it is the right fit. We really appreciate that approach. It allows us to step into each project already aligned with the clients and confident in the direction, which makes the entire process more enjoyable for everyone involved.
From the moment Midwestern Bride connected us with Shelby and Ever, it was clear this wedding was going to be something special. The vision was playful, editorial, and bold, with vibrant citrus tones that immediately caught our attention. Paired with the chic, industrial feel of the venue, the overall direction felt like a natural fit. We were excited to collaborate with such a strong vendor team to bring it all together.
Shelby and Ever are based in New York, so we didn’t meet in person before the wedding day, but we connected right away during our initial calls. We regularly work with couples remotely and focus on making the floral process feel easy and stress free, no matter the distance. They shared a few color preferences and creative ideas, then trusted us to take it from there. The result was an unforgettable celebration that felt bold, personal, and completely their own.
