Usually, we’re obsessed with planting flowers and helping them live their best lives, not clipping them into bouquets. But wedding season has arrived, and we are here for it. When we heard that reality TV’s Giannina Gibelli was planning her ceremony for summer 2026, we popped our own question: Would she share her dream wedding flowers, and let us see what AI comes up with? She said yes to the request; come see the results and get inspired.
First, a Bit of Backstory
The world first met Giannina in the "pods" during season one of the high-stakes reality-TV experiment Love is Blind. While she emerged with a fiancé and a ring, there wasn’t a "happily ever after" — at least, not yet.
Unbeknownst to her, her future fiancé, Blake Horstmann, was navigating his own quest for love on The Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise. When the two finally crossed paths while filming the reality competition All Star Shore in 2021, boom. Their romance went public in June 2022; they welcomed son Heath in March 2024; and that October, Blake proposed during a vacation in Madrid.
Now, the couple is prepping for their dream wedding in the summer of 2026, and Giannina — while not giving away the actual details — says flowers are the heart of the celebration.
For Giannina and Blake, flowers are a love language. "Blake comes home with a bouquet for me, and now he gives them to our son, Heath, and says, ‘Give these to mommy.’ Heath walks up with the bouquet, and it melts my heart. Flowers are a massive part of my happiness."
Wedding Flowers: Where to Begin?
When wedding planning began, there was no question where the priority lay. “I was like, ‘Cool, the chairs, fine, whatever.’ But the flowers? I wanted them to be center stage,” Giannina says.
No red, Bachelor-style roses here. “We’re doing more Calla lilies and tulips,” she explains. She’s also leaning heavily into orchids — the more the better. “I love when orchids cascade,” she says, describing her wedding vibe as “timeless” with an "ethereal cloud" palette. “I want you to look at photos of my wedding and not be able to tell what year it was held,” she notes. Her goal? Arrangements that are "white and pale, clean and crisp."
The two-bouquet strategy
Giannina’s having two bouquets made, one with a classic look, and one that’s more modern.
Her "traditional" bouquet, a fluffy, round arrangement of peonies or Calla lilies, will be wrapped in fabric from the hem of her wedding dress. Her second option is a bold, "edgy" statement piece designed to look like a floral purse, where the stems double as a handle. This avant-garde "piece of art" will incorporate pearls and "drippy" Amaranthus or "weeping" orchids.
Which one will she pick for the walk down the aisle? That will be a game-time decision based on which makes her feel "more like a bride." Here’s what AI created to visualize these bouquets.
“To me, two things make you a bride: when you put the veil on and when you hold the bouquet,” she says. “I want my bouquet to be a part of the dress and not an afterthought. I’ve always wanted to feel like a princess coming out of a garden.”
Reading the [Reception] Room
With the ceremony and reception being held outdoors (exactly where is being kept private), Giannina is embracing the lack of ceilings, planning arrangements that can be as tall and "over the top" as the setting allows.
"The flowers are going to be their own sculptures," she explains. Her goal: blooms cascading to create an organic, immersive experience. "We want it all to feel intentional and one with nature."
“Our sweetheart table will be next to a tree. Nature is such a vital part of where we're getting married,” she says. “I always pictured myself getting married in a garden. It’s going to be a magical fairytale.”
How does AI visualize this? Take a look at what its super-powers cooked up for the happy couple. Then watch their social-media feeds to see how it all turned out.
Sending our best wishes to Giannina and Blake! But now, how about you? Do you have some amazing wedding flowers to share? Post them on Instagram and tag us at #scottsmiraclegro so we can see your creativity in full bloom.
