Making your big fat Indian wedding a sustainable, eco-friendly one, doesn’t necessarily mean it would be dull and boring. There are often great misconceptions around the idea of sustainability, especially ones that urge people to believe that the concept is bound to tamper with the glam-factor. Well, what if we told you that your special day can be both uber alluring and not pose any threats to the environment? Don’t think that’s possible?
Weddings can have stunning decor, extravagance, fun in abundance, and be sustainable at the same time –The trick is merely in selecting the right options for yourself! Take a cue from the fabulous couple, Amala and Arjun, who chose Interflora to enhance their memorable Chennai wedding in the most unique, inspiring way!
Everything about this Indian Wedding Decorators, right from to construction of the Mandap only with bamboo, kavala, dried stems and flowers, to the elegant white rows of natural breathable fabric hanging overhead, was picturesque to say the least. The unique curation of the Mandap brought out the artsy amalgamation of traditional culture weaving into modern charm. Every inch of decor used oozed sustainability, simplicity and visual bliss.
With majestic hues of red, orange, gold and white ruling the evening, the occasion was a true sight to behold! The entire hall looked regal, like a royal courtyard almost, and the mandap surrounded by premium flowers on one end was definitely a showstopper. Strategically placed wooden chairs, each with a rose on it, followed by ascending levels of magnificent diwans with stone carved centerpieces consisting of red roses and daisies were an instant hit with guests. The sides of the staircase were lined with flower pots that only accentuated the beauty of this setup.
This intimate ceremony at a beach house in Mahabalipuram gave Interflora ample opportunity to use the produce of nearby farms for the local variety of stunning flowers like chrysanthemums, roses, daisies, marigolds, lotus, dry pampas and dry stems. It’s imperative to note that Inteflora’s dedication towards the vocal for local initiative is fierce, and the brand dedicatedly strives towards uplifting the cause at a holistic level.
When it comes to the dining hall area, a canopy of fine white thread, lined with daisies perfectly complimenting the dry pampas and green foliage was the center of attraction. The roof of the area preceding this was decorated with jute and cane baskets, intertwined with fabric that gave a raw yet soothing and serene look and feel. The minimal decor radiated positivity and mindfulness with its earthy hues of green, beige and whites. The food table was set up with flowers exuding a Japanese-Ikebana-meets-South-Indian traditional style.
The guests were left in awe at the intricate design and thoughtful details of the overall decor. The theme stood true to the couple’s vision of an eco-friendly and sustainable wedding; something that Interflora truly takes pride in. As always, you dream — We deliver.
