In case you missed it, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce got engaged and the wedding community went wild for the lush floral garden setting!
With a floral setup rumoured to have cost in the vicinity of $35-$40,000 we’ve studied the flowers used in Travis' lush garden proposal scene, so you can be inspired by this look using flowers readily available in Australia.
Read on for some key elements you'll need to include!

Roses in pink, white or cream
Roses, roses and more roses here! To mirror Taylor’s proposal look we love Grandiflora Marshmallow or Pearl White, Tickled Pink and Joya. Plus we think adding some extra spray roses for fullness like Grandiflora Lavinda Lace, Pearl Gem or Cotton Candy wouldn’t go astray either!
Hydrangea in white
Taylor’s look uses a paniculata hydrangea variety known for its large, cone-shaped flower heads that change colour from green to white to pinky autumn tones throughout their flowering season. For Taylor's look they are in their white phase. In Australia we mostly see this variety in it's whiter to pink tones in the summer months – something to bear in mind if you want a Taylor inspired wedding!
Delphinium in white
A Prim Petal Co. spring/summer favourite, delphinium is the beautiful tall stems used around the base of the urns in Taylor's proposal garden, adding height and whimsy to the design.
Nerines in pale pink
These delicate yet dramatic blooms are a kind of lily, also available in high summer here in Australia and are our go-to recommendation to use floating above the urns in our version of Taylor's proposal garden.
Greenery and filler flowers
There is so much greenery and additional lush white filler flowers added to this proposal garden both onthe ground and arch giving the whole look a very lush garden feel. We’d suggest lots of extra volume here, our go-tos would be a mix of ivy berry foliage, queen anne’s lace, alstroemeria, green hanging amaranth, and viburnum (flower and foliage) to achieve a similar look.
