Georgia and Martin were married on 11 September 2021 at Houchins. After several venue, date and vision changes they chose beautiful neutrals for their flowers, with 'quicksand' roses, pampas grass and other dried materials. That cafe-au-lait dahlia was cut from the garden - how stunning is it!!    The four bridesmaids carried smaller bouquets, finished with trailing green ribbons.   For the two flower girls I made foliage circlets with dried flowers dotted throughout.  Ready for delivery! Martin and his groomsmen wore buttonholes with a lisianthus bloom, dried materials and a selection of foliage.   Delivered to the venue!  The venue looked lovely set out with banquet tables with soft ruscus running along the full length and sprigs of gyp dotted throughout. They had a sweetheart top table and a couple of extra round tables up on the balcony. The groom works with concrete so he made the table numbers and candle plates himself - very clever!    We also filled a couple of buckets with mixed rose petal and eucalyptus leaf confetti.  A beautiful little preview from Kerrie Mitchell Photography.  I hope Georgia and Martin had a wonderful day!

Alice and Joe were married on 9 September 2021 at the church in Great Braxted, with their reception to follow at Braxted Park. They chose classic all whites for their flowers with beautiful greenery, with roses, stocks, veronica, eucalyptus and senecio, with homegrown dahlias, ammi and cosmos in Alice's bouquet,     The four bridesmaids carried a smaller version of the same flowers.   Joe wore a large white rose in his buttonhole, with a selection of different foliages.  The other men wore smaller versions with a spray rose - classic and elegant.  Delivered to the venue!  I loved decorating the entrance arch at the church, it made for a stunning entrance and beautiful photos of the happy couple - keep scrolling to see. I took my freelancer Amy with me to create this but apparently my ladder wasn't tall enough but luckily I was able to borrow one from the verger Mike! This is the church where my mum is buried so it was lovely to be able to work there on a wedding.  Inside we tied flowers onto the end of the pews, with ribbons cascading to the floor.  We also provided fresh rose petal confetti for the guests to throw.  Over at the venue we decorated the welcome sign and table plan with fresh flowers. On the top table we laid a garland of eucalyptus with roses, dahlias and other white flowers dotted throughout.  For the centrepieces we created a foliage heavy display surrounding a glass hurricane vase, which were designed for the guests to be able to take home at the end of the night.   I also hand-wrote all the place settings which were attached to little sprigs of eucalyptus - the whole table set up looked stunning. I love these shots by Joseph Kinerman - just gorgeous!  I hope Alice and Joe had a lovely day! Coleen and John were married on 5 September 2021 at Fennes. They chose pretty pinks and whites for their flowers, with a gorgeous selection for the bridal bouquet including roses, astrantia, astilbe, dahlias, phlox and eucalyptus.   The bridesmaids carried smaller bouquets of gypsophila and roses - so delicate and pretty!   The flower girls carried heart shaped wands of gypsophila.  John wore a rose buttonhole with astilbe, gypsophila and eucalyptus.  The other men wore similar buttonholes, without the astilbe, with larger pin corsages for the ladies.   Delivered to the venue!  The ceremony and reception were all held in the same room - the large marquee at Fennes. With a mix of grey and pink chair bows the gypsophila added a delicate extra touch on alternate chairs. We created a large long and low for the top table, which was set up in a loose horseshoe shape. We also hired some vases for the bridesmaid bouquets to be placed into as additional decor.  The venue looked stunning all set up with a mix of low and high centrepieces.  The tall centrepieces were on our conical glass vases, with large hydrangeas and a beautiful mix of other blooms.  The lower centrepieces were a trio of glass vases, each with a single pink rose and gorgeous glass pebbles - simple yet elegant.  We also placed a single yellow vase in memory of the bride's late grandfather - a lovely tribute.  For the cake we made a small cake topper - the cake was a single tier by Luca's Cakes, with a selection of cupcakes making up the rest of the display. Beautiful!  A trio of thank you bouquets finished everything off. A little preview of the happy couple!  I hope Coleen and John had a wonderful day! Emily and Will were married on 4 September 2021 at Great Lodge. They chose pretty pinks and whites for their flowers, with lots of lovely greens. Emily's bouquet was finished with beautiful trailing sage green ribbons.   The five bridesmaids carried smaller versions of Emily's bouquet, also finished with trailing ribbons.  The little flower girl carried a cute wand with a selection of flowers to match the bouquets.  Ready for delivery!  Will wore a double lisianthus buttonhole with a selection of mixed foliages and sage green ribbon to match the bouquets.  His groomsmen wore all foliage buttonholes - sometimes simple is best!  Delivered to the venue!  The ceremony area looked beautiful dressed with a trailing curtain of soft ruscus and a mid sized long and low on the table. The ceremony gazebo is set in the beautiful grounds of Great Lodge, next to the lake and surrounded by trees.  We also decorated the end of the chairs with posies of mixed foliages and a hessian bow.  We also provided olive leaf confetti - Emily and Will were originally going to marry in Italy so it was important that we included olive amongst the foliages. The long and low would later be moved over from the ceremony table and placed in the centre of the top table. We also laid out vases for the bridesmaid bouquets to be placed into as additional decor.  The tables featured stacked log slices, a trio of candles in glass vases, loose foliages and sprigs of gypsophila - simple yet elegant.  The absolutely stunning pro photos are by Sarah-Jane Ethan Photography - how gorgeous are these?!    I hope Emily and Will had a wonderful day! Sheree and Billy were married on 28 August 2021 at Apton Hall. They chose classic whites for their flowers, which included roses, astilbe and hydrangeas. Sheree's bouquet was beautiful, kept fairly neat with stunning blooms and mixed foliages.    Her 8(!) bridesmaids carried smaller versions, with a hydrangea taking centre stage in each bouquet.    The flower girls carried heart shaped wands of gypsophila, finished with trailing ivory ribbons.  Billy's buttonhole featured three lisianthus blooms with soft toned foliages.  The other men wore smaller buttonholes with single focal blooms.   At the venue we initially set up for an outdoor ceremony but the weather didn't cooperate as it was later moved inside! Unfortunately even in the peak of the summer this is always a possibility so Sheree was wise to choose freestanding arrangements in the form of these pedestals, as we'd also discussed decorating the gazebo. We also placed a long and low on the table, which was later moved over to the top table for the reception.  We also provided rose petal and eucalyptus leaf confetti which made for a stunning 'confetti shot' - scroll down to see it!  The venue looked stunning with the all white flowers and soft toned greens - the long and low was on the top table with vases for the bridesmaid bouquets to be placed into as additional decor. The centrepieces were glass footed bowls with a beautiful floral arrangement inside. These were designed in such a way that guests could take the flowers home with them at the end of the night.   We also provided flowers to decorate the absolutely perfect cake from Squidger and Watson, which were designed in an asymmetric style across the tiers. The fabulous balloon backdrop was from All Our Love Events.  The beautiful pro photos are by The Humble Photography Company - just look at that confetti shot!!   I hope Sheree and Billy had a wonderful day! |
