Sunset Terracotta Wedding Ceremony

Forgoing a traditional wedding arch, Michele and Rocco were wed in front of this grand, dramatic arched mesquite doors. Set against the smooth plastered cream walls and accented with dramatic light fixtures, this existing arch was the perfect setting for their ceremony.
But to really elevate the ceremony venue, flowers were key. Here’s how they added Sunset Terracotta details to their stylish outdoor ceremony.

Russet Bridesmaid Bouquets and Dresses
Michele had five bridesmaids on her wedding day who all wore gorgeous dresses in varied shades of amber and burnt orange. Having the wedding party wear tones that match the wedding color palette is a gorgeous way to create a cohesive look, and we love how Michele’s bridesmaids looked standing together at the ceremony!
