A Moody & Elegant November Wedding at Flood Mansion in San Francisco
This moody November wedding at James Leary Flood Mansion was all about creating a vibey, conversation-starting dinner party with florals at the heart of the design.
Bride Hannah of Hannah Aubrey Hair had a strong vision: no two arrangements or tablescapes should feel the same. She wanted bold florals, unexpected details, and an atmosphere that immersed guests in beauty and intrigue. Working alongside Meag Breanne Events, we eagerly embraced the challenge!
Luxury Tablescapes with Monochromatic Florals & Textural Details
For the reception, we curated distinct tablescapes so that each felt like a one-of-a-kind moment, designed to keep guests engaged, spark conversations, and of course provide an Instagrammable moment :)
Tablescapes were designed with an array of both traditional and modern flower varieties, including red roses, carnations, orchids, peonies, hydrangea, hypericum berry, calla lilies, and butterfly ranunculus.
Some key elements of the tables included:
Mismatched vessels sourced and thrifted from all over the Bay Area
Monochromatic floral arrangements as statement pieces
Miniature mono-bloom arrangements in tiny and delicate vessels
Overflowing fruitscapes for rich color and texture
Scattered rose petals for added romance
Silk and velvet ribbons for texture
Plentiful candlelight for a romantic glow
A Romantic Ceremony with Statement Floral Urns
We wanted to embrace Flood Mansion’s timeless elegance and complement the venue’s architecture. We filled the venue’s gorgeous urns with lush overflowing greenery and deep red blooms including red roses and peonies. The ceremony setting felt dramatic and high-impact, a striking combination of traditional yet modern.
The Process Behind This Bespoke Floral Design
From hand-selecting every vessel across local Bay Area shops over the course of months, to spending a full day curating the perfect fruits, every detail was intentionally designed. We even applied individual bows and pearls into designs for an added layer of depth — loved that detail so much! Giving my talented design team carte blanche to push the envelope made this project that much more rewarding.
Florals that Create Unforgettable Moments
What made this wedding truly special was how each table felt like its own world, full of unexpected elements that delighted guests at every turn. It was more than just floral design—it was about creating an experience that felt intimate, elevated, and unforgettable.
