Now Trending: Modern Estate Weddings
When hosting a wedding, the goal is to put on an event that will stand the test of time. And so, the uptick in modern estate weddings makes complete sense! Taking place outdoors and starring neutral palettes, this style is the epitome of modern romance. Keep reading to learn why Mill Pond Estate is the perfect backdrop for modern estate weddings in Florida.
Modern Romantic Bridal Style
Let’s start where most brides do: refining your bridal style! Modern estate weddings call for bridal attire that is timeless yet romantic. Think of gowns with a classic silhouette that feature minimal details or organic-inspired lace. Hair that is soft and natural, paired with jewelry that leans towards sophisticated. If you want to infuse some color into your ensemble, consider a gown with a colored underskirt or a pop of bright florals in your bouquet. Speaking of bouquets, we recommend wildflower-inspired florals that will complement your surroundings! Try to include lightweight blooms or long-stemmed fillers that will lend a lush but airy and romantic look - organic arrangements are our in-house floral design team’s specialty!

Outdoor Estate Wedding Decor Ideas
One perk of hosting an estate wedding at Mill Pond is the lush grounds. Natural greenery and lush gardens mean you can opt for less decor. Nature is a simple yet elegant backdrop for both your ceremony and reception, and is a breath of fresh air in comparison to decor-focused event design. Should you choose to feature some decorations, we recommend pieces that are neutral in color and minimal. For furniture, skip the eccentric or intricate pieces and lean into designs that are sleek or classic - both our Chiavari and Acrylic chairs are a beautiful choice. The same applies to florals. Color is great, but if your goal is timelessness then go with fresh greenery or white flowers. For a small touch of whimsy, consider sprucing up your reception tables with elegant serving ware - like vintage-inspired glassware or linens!
Modern Wedding Portraits
Florida estate weddings come with the perk of especially unique foliage! A state with a wildly diverse environment, couples can achieve truly one-of-a-kind wedding portraits. At Mill Pond Estate we offer a range of spaces for photos, from open fields to a forest of Grand oaks and the Lily Pond. At our outdoor wedding venue it is easier than ever to obtain romantic golden hour portraits, whether you venture out on the pond in a row boat or take an intimate stroll in the garden.
