Winter in Brisbane brings with it crisp air, soft light, and a calm, romantic atmosphere — the perfect setting for stylish weddings and sophisticated corporate events. At Stem Design, we love using the season’s unique energy to inspire florals that are not only fresh and elegant but also creative and texturally rich. Whether you’re planning a dreamy wedding at a riverside venue or styling a chic end-of-financial-year dinner, here’s our Styling tips for winter weddings and corporate events in Brisbane.

BEST WINTER FLOWERS FOR EVENTS IN BRISBANE

The cooler months offer a surprisingly beautiful palette of flowers. Some of our favourites include:

Camellias
Available in soft pinks, deep reds, and creamy whites, camellias are robust and romantic — ideal for statement centrepieces and bridal bouquets.

Hellebores
Known as the “winter rose,” hellebores offer soft mauves, greens, and antique whites, perfect for more muted, textural arrangements.

Tulips and Ranunculus
These winter staples bring lush colour and soft, layered petals that pair perfectly with minimalist table styling.

Dried & Preserved Elements
Winter is also a great time to include preserved florals like bunny tails, bleached ruscus, or dried palm fans — adding warmth and structure.

STYLING TIPS: RIBBONS, TEXTURE & VOLUME

Want to elevate your florals without adding too much bulk or budget? Here are some creative styling ideas we use at Stem Design to help your arrangements make a big impact:

Ribbon Layering for Table Centrepieces
Layering silk or linen ribbons through your florals adds movement and elegance. It can also make smaller arrangements feel fuller and more deliberate. Choose tones that match your brand or wedding theme — dusty rose, slate grey, or even warm bronze.

Candles and Low Styling
In winter, ambient lighting is key. Pair your centrepieces with low pillar candles, votives, or sculptural candleholders to add depth and mood.

Vessel Variety
Don’t be afraid to mix vase heights and textures — ceramic, glass, and metallic vases create visual rhythm across long tables or corporate conference settings.

WINTER WEDDINGS & CORPORATE EVENTS — BRISBANE STYLE

Brisbane’s winter is famously mild, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor events. Whether you’re styling a reception at The Calile, an elegant dinner at Howard Smith Wharves, or a business brunch in New Farm Park, our team at Stem Design can help tailor a floral story to your event’s location, theme, and personality.
