It’s amazing how decors and styling can transform even the simplest of venues. For this backdrop, the stylists were able to capitalize on the rich dark colored walls. Using a simple grid, they combined aspects of minimalism and rustic charm using neutral and dried elements. The pampas grass gave a touch of softness to the set-up. You can clearly see how they designed everything intentionally to match the bridal bouquet and the groom’s suit as well.

This beach wedding blended rustic and wild greens with a celestial twist. This moon backdrop became even more stunning with its thick layer of pampas grass.

Don’t be afraid to play with different shapes and silhouettes, they can still work with the motif as long as you integrate them with other elements.

Simple can still be stunning! Make sure you get a trusted designer to bring your vision to life. A good stylist can use the most basic of decors and still make it look effortlessly elegant.

Absolutely captivating!

This is not only a backdrop, it could be a photo area too.

Did we tell you not to be afraid to play with different shapes? Taken alone, this triangular backdrop may seem like it’s too geometrical for a nature-themed wedding. The stylist didn’t even need flowers to make everything blend so seamlessly. The natural color of the pampas grass will always be a classic but using it in different colors also gives it a distinctive feel. Peach colored pampas grass looks so beautiful against Santorini’s blue waters.
