Zesty, bright, and zealous! Today’s wedding inspiration is booming with bold statement-making décor: citrus, confetti, and tons of balloons. For the couple that wants to exude laid-back and casual vibes on their wedding, while still going ALL OUT, Erin Hansen Events & Design crafted something hip + modern… And totally cool.
The historic citrus packing house feel of the brick and concrete walls served as the perfect blank slate for the juicy pops of color, lights, and balloons! Let’s wander through all the citrus-inspired elements in the photos captures by Peterson Design & Photography!
To set the bold mood (and tone of colors) for the day, this invitation suite was created by Ink Topiary Custom Invitations.
You want vibrant? We’re packing it in punches, droves, gallons, and bushels… Those bright yellow shoes? They’re from J Adams Shoes — the “Daisy!”
Opting for a colorful stone, this gorgeous gem is from Brilliant Earth.
Draping with colorful ribbon and pompoms, this wild + vibrant bouquet was crafted by Here Come the Blooms, with a color-loving couple in mind.
We’d be remiss if we didn’t mention that gown fit for a rockstar! It’s by Maggie Sottero; her hairpiece is from Julie Harris Designs.
A proper balloon installation by Balloon Zilla to frame the space? Don’t mind if we do! If you’re looking to create something similar, check out our DIY floral balloon arch!
Seriously, how COOL is this?!
The way they dressed up the space with pieces from Design 8 at Howl in Long Beach is pretty darn spectacular, don’t you think?
A citrus *explosion*! Classic Party Rentals tabletop pieces, paired with Here Come the Blooms insane florals, and QT’s Pretty Little Things linens made one for incredible match.

BOOM. Now THAT is a cake! Playing up one of our current favorite trends — the drip cake — Nicole Bakes Cakes crafted this confectionary masterpiece, complete with sprinkles.
Forever + always — making sure the balloons were a statement, in and of themselves, Fawn Lettering decorated them with her darling calligraphy.
For the daring couple who is looking for an adventurous aesthetic for their big day… This is it!
And how fun is this confetti shot?!
