Undone Elegance Is Back — Here's What It Actually Costs to Pull Off

Florals in dusty pink and lavender, string lighting, and a fireworks send-off: the "undone elegance" look currently trending out of Tuscany is easy to underprice. Loose, garden-style arrangements read as effortless but require more stems and more skilled hands per table than a tight, structured centerpiece — expect the floral line item to run higher, not lower, than a formal look. A fireworks finale needs a permit and a vendor booked early, plus a venue willing to sign off on timing and noise, so confirm both before it's on the program. If the room has architectural detail worth showing off, keep the palette pale and let the space do the work rather than dressing over it.
