Kyle & Jordan’s Citrus Sunset and Desert Inspired Wedding at The Ebell of Los Angeles

Our couple share a kiss in front of their large scale floral installation at The Ebell of Los Angeles full of citrus-toned and sunset-inspired flowers like King Protea, Banksia, Air Plants, Orchids, Dahlias, Scabiosa, Amaranthus, and Rose!

Our inspiration for Jordan & Kyle’s floral design was classic California with a citrus twist – aka where the desert meets the orange grove.

We leaned into bold floral choices, organic garden style blooms, and both textural and tropical accents in a sunset sherbet palette of blush, peach, coral, and orange to bring this large scale floral installation to life on the steps of our favorite historic venue, The Ebell of Los Angeles.

You can see it right? It’s a modern desert chic + citrus mashup…and it’s magical, and magically captured by the oh-so-talented Brett Loie Photography.

There was also a *very* special guest of honor…

This California citrus-inspired wedding at The Ebell of Los Angeles had it all, including our couple's dog, BlackJack, and the cutest Winston & Main floral details like this flower child basket adorned with greenery and spray roses.

Meet Kyle & Jordan’s dog, Blackjack! Naturally, he was the star of the wedding, and had the best seat in the house (see below) to watch his dads get married! This sweet pup came with his own entourage, posed with our blooms, ran down the aisle to his dads, and observed the entire ceremony from the comfort of his dog bed.

WE love love love a wedding pet and Blackjack did not disappoint. He was also a huge hit with the flower child, who carried this adorable floral accented basket of petals.

These cuties!  😍

The Ceremony Floral Installation

The large-scale floral installation by Winston and Main at The Ebell of Los Angeles grows on either side of the ceremony space and contains King Protea, Banksia, Air Plants, Orchids, Dahlias, Scabiosa, Amaranthus, Protea, Rose and more.

Incredible, whimsical and magical ceremony floral installation by Los Angeles Floral Designer, Winston & Main, for this California wedding at The Ebell of Los Angeles contains King Protea, Banksia, Air Plants, Orchids, Dahlias, Scabiosa, Amaranthus, Protea, Rose and more!

We love to create large scale and site specific installations, and The Ebell of Los Angeles has so many great areas to do that! I don’t think we’ll ever run out of ways to create completely unique ceremony designs here.

For this floral installation on the stairs outside the art salon, we used a wild and organic mix of King Protea, Banksia, Air Plants, Orchids, Dahlias, Scabiosa, Amaranthus, Garden Rose and more! It was lush, textural, and dripping with blooms on either side of the veranda where Kyle & Jordan wed. This detail shot from the ceremony installation is a forever favorite- all the texture, the fluff, that phalaenopsis orchid.  😍

Blackjack, our couple's dog enjoys an immersive floral ceremony installation by Los Angeles Floral Designer, Winston & Main, for this California wedding at The Ebell of Los Angeles.

We always recommend that you create a few high impact or experiential floral experiences for your guests, instead of spreading your flowers (and budget) all over the place.  No one will remember bud vases in the bathroom, but this installation? And wedding pet superstar Blackjack? Core memories unlocked for sure!

Wedding Party Details

Two grooms in colorful custom suits are surrounded by their wedding party- everyone wears or carries flowers from Los Angeles Floral Designer, Winston & Main.

Whimsical and textural bouquet and boutonniere in shades of cream, peach, coral and orange full of ranunculus, dahlias, spray roses and banksia.

A floral flatlay of a modern wedding invitation surrounded by textural florals in shades of cream, blush, coral, and yellow dahlias, ranunculus, spray roses and amaranthus from Winston & Main.

Back to the details! Personal flowers were so fun on this one- the wedding party bouquets were lush and organic and featured textural banksia and scabiosa combined with fluffy garden roses, ranunculus, and dahlias. The bouts were each a little different, and featured either a ranunculus or rose with textural accents in shades of blush, peach, coral, and orange. We love how the sunset palette really stood out against the dusty lilac dress/tie/pocket square.

And we reeeeeally lucked out with all the dahlias for this fabulous floral flatlay in late October! Aren’t they just every shade of perfection?

Julia & Jackson’s Bright & Fun Tropical Disco Wedding

Our fun couple share a first kiss under our bold, colorful, & tropical hanging floral installation.
 
Originally scheduled for 2020, and then rescheduled, and then rescheduled again (thanks Covid), we were so thrilled to finally get Julia & Jackson to the altar.

And what an altar it was!

We created this suspended tropical installation with #nofloralfoam, as per usual, and incorporated disco balls, dahlias, and a few veeeery special anthuriums from our friends at Haus of Stems.
 
A super fun floral flat lay featuring a collection of colorful paper goods designed by our client & bride Julia Walck.
 
How cute is this flatlay? The paper goods- designed by Julia Walck herself, were incredible, and they were styled to perfection by Mary Costa Photography.
 
The bold & bright tropical bridal bouquet features phalaenopsis, anthurium, and sunny yellow rudbeckia.
 
So, let’s talk about Julia’s super eclectic bouquet. It features a hot pink phalaenopsis orchid, local dahlias, rudbeckia, and sunflowers, AND those ridiculously amazing anthuriums from Haus of Stems, AND tropical accents like ginger, monstera, and birds of paradise.

Color, texture, personality- this bouquet has it all, and then some!
It’s my maximal tropical garden dream bouquet. For real.
 
A colorful clapperboard and a line up of cheery orange boutonnieres were just a few of the colorful details for J&J's disco pop wedding.
 
Tabitha Abercrombie of Winston & Main designed these fun wedding party blooms.  The bouquet features mini monstera, ginger, and rose and the bold boutonniere features a tiny air plant, orange ranunculus, & oncidium orchid.
 
We kept the personals bright & fun, in sunset sherbet shades of yellow, pink, orange, & red. Those tiny air plants in the bouts? Chef’s kiss for the cuteness!

Fun fact: when you incorporate air plants or tiny succulents into your personals, you can keep them post wedding or event.
 
A cool & modern signature Winston & Main cuff corsage featuring an air plant and colorful pink & yellow strawflowers.
 
I think the chamomile on this wrist cuff corsage also understood the cuteness assignment.
 
This hanging tropical floral installation served as the wedding arch and was created without floral foam. It features anthuriums from Haus of Stems, alongside bold blooms, disco balls, and festive carnation and marigold garlands.
 
In the before times, we actually didn’t have any ceremony decor on our order! Site-specific installations are my jam though, so I was thrilled when Julia & Jackson added this hanging floral installation a few months before their wedding.

Even more so, because they let me do my thing when I politely inquired if they would mind if I hung a bunch of disco balls in it. I know, I know…who can say no to a bunch of disco balls?
 
Just married! J&J share a quick kiss as they recess down the wedding aisle.
 
I probably say it in every blog post, but this shot is always one of my favorites! That post-ceremony, superexcitedwehavetostopandkiss moment when the couple is recessing up (down?!) the aisle.

Aren’t they just perfection- the dress, the crown, the makeup, the suit, the tie, the love. Every last detail!
 
Tropical Greenery, Bold Blooms, & Disco Balls create this suspended wedding arch  at Valentine in DTLA.
 
Kinda like it just grew there, huh?
 
The cutest quintessential wedding portrait at Valentine- the bride wears a fab fringe jacket and holds a colorful tropical bouquet and the groom holds giant colorful balloons.
 
THE FRINGE. I bow down to you Rachel Burke.

And now would be a good time to talk about hiring a wedding planner who really gets you.

Holly of Anything But Gray Events always understands the assignment. AND how cute is it that she surprised Julia & Jackson with these perfectly colorful & coordinated fringe balloons on their wedding day?

Get yourself a Holly.
 
A cute wedding portrait at Valentine DTLA, featuring a bold fringe jacket by Rachel Burke, a teal wall, our colorful bouquet and our cute couple.
 
A portrait of the stylish couple: The bride wore cobalt blue boots and the groom holds her colorful tropical bouquet.
 
Julia’s boots are everything. And as a boot bride myself…all the heart eyed emojis.
 
A bold and brilliant balloon installation by Balloonzilla is suspended over the colorful reception space.
 
The color continues…all the way to the ceiling in this fabulous balloon installation by the one-and-only Marla, of Balloonzilla.
 
Bold & colorful tropical bar flowers by Winston & Main paired with fabulous paper goods by Julia Walck.
 
More fabulous paper goods. More colorful blooms. And the custom drink stirrers?
Best day ever indeed!
 
Bold, colorful, & tropical centerpieces featured pink and orange dahlias, a touch of cobalt, and mixed tropical greenery.
 
We mixed these cute and colorful tropical mini arrangements with bud vases of bright blooms, and of course, more disco balls!
 
Colorful and fun details including bold florals, and a pressed-flower cake by Nicole Bakes Cakes, from J&J's colorful, tropical, disco pop wedding at Valentine in DTLA.
 
An incredible fresh-pressed flower cake by Nicole Bakes Cakes, styled with a yellow bird cake topper, disco balls &  bright tropical blooms.
 
More pressed-flower cake perfection from my pal Nicole of Nicole Bakes Cakes.
 
The perfect place setting featuring vintage plates, beautiful paper goods, disco balls, and our colorful florals.
 
 
Our colorful, tropical wedding bouquet is full of unique, luxe, and textural flowers in shades of pink, orange, yellow, and red.
 
And one more gratuitous bouquet shot.
Because Mary Costa really is the best.

It was so much fun to bring the flower magic to this colorful wedding day.
Julia & Jackson- we’re wishing you a lifetime of dancing with joy (and disco balls)!
