At Chad Biggs Event Planning & Design, we recently had the pleasure of crafting a wedding design that was nothing short of a luxurious retreat. With a color palette rooted in ocean blue, accented by the warm tones of sunset yellow, we leaned into a Ralph Lauren-inspired aesthetic that evoked the timeless elegance of a luxe hotel. The foundation of our design was built on layers and textures. We incorporated solid and floral-patterned linens that added depth and richness to the space. The playful, whimsical accents of birds subtly wove a narrative of nature and freedom, adding an unexpected yet harmonious touch. To anchor both the ceremony and reception, towering bamboo trees were introduced. These not only brought in a touch of Asian influence but also created a serene and grounded atmosphere. The bamboo provided a natural contrast to the more structured, luxurious elements of the design, blending the refined with the organic. For those planning their wedding, it’s important to remember that the magic often lies in the details. Mixing patterns with solids, combining luxe fabrics, and incorporating meaningful elements—like our bamboo trees—can transform a space from ordinary to extraordinary. The goal is to create a design that not only reflects the couple’s style but also transports their guests into an experience. With the right combination of colors, textures, and thoughtful details, your wedding can feel like a curated retreat, a space where luxury meets comfort.
