Caitlin + Siddarth

Romantic Garden Wedding at Bella Cosa in Lake Wales, FL

Caitlin and Siddarth’s wedding at Bella Cosa in Lake Wales, Florida was a celebration of bold color, romantic garden-inspired florals, and personal details. Set beneath sprawling oak trees overlooking the water, their ceremony combined the natural beauty of the venue with rich shades of pink, plum, purple, and fresh greenery.

The floral design was intentionally abundant and organic. Caitlin carried a lush bouquet filled with vibrant pink blooms, deep burgundy accents, touches of purple, soft textural flowers, and eucalyptus. The saturated palette was especially striking against her incredible floral-painted wedding gown—and made the entire wedding feel like an extension of her dress.

For the outdoor ceremony, black metal floral stands lined the aisle with loose, garden-style arrangements at varying heights, creating the feeling of flowers growing alongside the guests as they made their way toward the altar. The ceremony backdrop featured a dramatic geometric wooden arch adorned with asymmetrical floral installations, while larger arrangements framed the entrance to the aisle.

One of our favorite details was how the couple embraced color throughout the entire design. Deep green and sage fabrics were draped across the wooden ceremony chairs, while plum linens and soft mauve textures carried the floral palette into the reception. Rather than relying on traditional wedding neutrals, every element worked together to create something romantic, eclectic, and completely their own.

And perhaps the cutest floral moment of the day? Their four-legged wedding party member making his way down the flower-lined aisle wearing a full collar of baby's breath.

Surrounded by old Florida oaks, Spanish moss, and the waterfront grounds of Bella Cosa, Caitlin and Siddarth's wedding was proof that wedding florals don't have to be subtle to feel romantic. Bold color, unexpected combinations, and plenty of texture transformed the space while still allowing the beauty of the Lake Wales venue to shine through.
