Imagine walking down along an entryway adorned with pale blooms and tiny lights glimmering from above. At either side are wine barrels as tables and rustic chairs, all placed in the midst of lush greenery. As a wedding guest, it is impossible not to be fascinated with an elegant garden-themed wedding. Yet for the bride, her dress is one of the things that matter most on her Big Day.

Celebrating love and beauty

Among Filipino society, many couples have tied the knot outdoors in a garden-themed wedding. Four years ago, Sunnies Face Co-Founders Bea Soriano and Eric Dee’s wedding trended for its sophisticated rustic garden wedding. Jo Claravall transformed Antonio’s Tagaytay into a dreamy garden with a beautiful twig arch, festoon light bulbs, luxurious chandeliers, wine barrels, and bouquet in pastel hues.

Isabelle Daza and Adrian Semblat also exchanged their “I do’s” in Tuscany, Italy. The entire styling of the church and the reception that followed featured beautiful floral arrangements and hanging lights. There was also a vignette of the spouse’s memorable experiences. A string connected these photos and were hung around the wooden fence of the venue. It was certainly a celebration of the beauty of love.

Delicate silhouettes

Having a wedding outdoors like Isabelle and Bea allows brides to let natural light highlights their exquisite gowns. For this year’s bridal gown collection, Francis unveils ethereal creations. It features an extensive range of embroidery. From chiffon, A-line, to tulle, the dresses exhibit the eye and talent of the international designer for creating unique silhouettes. What further adds luxury are the varying fabrics and detailed embroidery in pale hues. These evoke a beautiful dream-like effect, a mark of a Francis Libiran creation.

Although the Filipino designer has executed his vision on the dresses, brides can customize it. This allows them to fulfill their dream gown, especially if they want to align with a garden theme. Francis’ latest collection was shot in Narra Hill, one of the beautiful locations for a garden wedding. At the shoot, Amante Fleurs provided beautiful blooms to render a wedding scene complete with the cake of Naked Patisserie and shot by The Wedding Narratives.
