What happens when two florists get married? In Kiran and Farzan’s case, it turns into an unforgettable floral dream, designed and styled entirely by the couple themselves. Owners of sustainable floral design company Amarante London, these two brought their vision to life in one of the most iconic venues in the city: The Waldorf Hilton London.
What We Love About This Wedding At The Waldorf Hilton London:
- The ceremony in the Palm Court, complete with a glass roof and soft, romantic blooms
- A moody, red florals-filled reception in the Ballroom with candlelight and dramatic tablescapes
- That the couple—both florists!—designed the entire floral experience themselves
- A perfectly balanced timeline, from emotional speeches to a fun-filled party with a live saxophonist
- Intentional vendor choices rooted in real connections and creative admiration

Choosing a Venue That Already Held Meaning
For Kiran and Farzan, choosing The Waldorf Hilton London was more than a design decision, it was deeply personal. “The Waldorf has always meant a lot to us. It’s where we stayed when visiting London,” they shared. That connection, combined with the historic charm and stunning architecture, made it an easy choice.
The ceremony was held in the light-filled Palm Court, with its iconic glass roof that once served as a set for Titanic. The couple leaned into the venue’s elegance, filling the space with soft, garden-inspired florals in blush, cream, and muted peach. The flowers lined the aisle and framed their vows.
How They Made Their The Waldorf Hilton London Wedding Ceremony Feel Personal and Powerful
The pair took the time to craft their own vows and speeches—something they say made a huge impact. “We prepared speeches for our ceremony and it was super emotional.” Creating space for emotion and authenticity turned their ceremony into a heartfelt experience, not just for them but for everyone in the room.
Afterward, they hosted a casual drinks reception while their photographer captured the must-have family portraits. “It was nice to have that breather before the big celebration,” they added.
Designing the Wedding of Their Dreams… Literally
As professional florists, Kiran and Farzan had a clear vision for their day and the skill to make it happen. They designed and installed all of the florals themselves through their company, Amarante London.
The evening reception in The Waldorf Hilton London’s Ballroom was the definition of dramatic elegance. Long tables were dressed in deep red blooms, hundreds of them, paired with flickering candles for a moody, romantic vibe. “We wanted a dark, red theme for the evening. It was stunning.”
They intentionally created two distinct floral looks—soft and airy for the ceremony, bold and rich for the reception—to reflect the mood of each moment.
Picking the Right Team Made All the Difference
Having worked alongside their photographer at a recent wedding, the couple knew they had found the right person to capture their day. “We loved their style,” they said. Similarly, they chose a videographer whose past work had blown them away. The result? A dream team that fully understood their vibe.
The night wrapped with a high-energy celebration featuring a saxophonist, a live band, and a DJ who kept the dance floor packed. “It was a great night,” the couple remembered. “All of our friends and family were there. It was everything we wanted.”
Final Thoughts from a Couple Who Knows Flowers
When asked what made the day so memorable, Kiran and Farzan kept it simple: it was all about love, intention, and staying true to what mattered most. From the floral artistry to the emotional ceremony, every detail was meaningful—and that’s what made their wedding at The Waldorf Hilton London so special.
