Sculptural Simplicity: Arum Lilies for a Modern Brisbane Wedding

Bride holding Arum lily bouquet at modern minimalist Brisbane wedding by Garden Graffiti

Some weddings feel like they float - smooth, effortless, elegant in that “how do they make it look so easy?” kind of way. Tenesha and Joshua’s day was exactly that. Modern. Poised. Quietly luxurious. And wrapped entirely in the kind of romance that lingers long after the champagne has settled.

We had the absolute joy of bringing their floral vision to life: a modern-classic palette with sculptural white blooms, heroed by two of 2025’s biggest floral trends - calla lilies and arum lilies.

If you’re currently in your engagement era (hi, welcome, take a seat), this wedding is your Pinterest board waiting to happen.

A Ceremony Dipped in Modern Romance

Picture this: a clean white backdrop, soft natural light, sculptural florals climbing like living artwork.
We created a structured, modern ceremony installation featuring:

  • crisp white ranunculus

  • cloudlike dahlias

  • architectural arum lilies

  • trailing green amaranthus

  • delicate Queen Anne’s lace

  • subtle garden textures

  • AND a striking contrast of deep, romantic red roses

The effect?
A floral moment that felt like an art gallery meets modern garden romance - bold yet refined, dramatic yet minimal, fresh yet timeless. A little Vogue editorial, a little classic romance.

The Bridal Look - Simple, Elegant, Unforgettable

Tenesha’s aesthetic was the definition of modern-minimalist luxury. Her gown, sleek and sculptural, paired with a long veil and soft updo, created the perfect backdrop for a bundle of pure white Arum lilies.

We leaned into their natural shape - long, elegant, minimalist - allowing them to shine without over-styling.

Arum and Calla lilies are having a moment right now, and Tenesha proved exactly why: they’re chic, timeless, high-fashion, and unbelievably photogenic.

Her bridesmaids matched the vibe perfectly in black gowns, each carrying three stem bundles of white Arums tied with soft ribbon. Clean, contemporary, and absolutely striking!

Calla Lilies & Arum Lilies - The Trend You’ll See Everywhere

If you’re planning a wedding for 2026, consider this your gentle floral nudge:
Calla lilies and arum lilies are the moment right now.

Why we love them:

  • Their silhouette is naturally elegant

  • They photograph beautifully from every angle

  • They fit minimalist, luxury, modern, coastal, and black-tie weddings

  • They create impact without needing extras

  • They pair effortlessly with clean gowns and structured styling

Tenesha and Joshua’s wedding shows exactly how these blooms can transform a space - simple but unforgettable.

Tenesha & Joshua, Thank You!

It was an honour to create for this beautiful couple. Their trust, taste, and vision allowed us to design florals that felt like them: refined, romantic, and deeply modern.

If you’re dreaming of a floral design like this - sculptural whites, modern silhouettes, elegant simplicity - we’d love to bring it to life.
