Kirsty and Dan were married on 5 October 2024 at Houchins. They chose a stunning colour palette of peach/soft champagne and cream, with pops of burnt orange. Their flowers included roses, germini and stocks, with dried materials such as pampas grass and bleached ruscus.  I loved Kirsty's bouquet, which was asymmetrical in shape with a lovely mix of fresh and dried materials and finished with rustic twine.   There was just the one bridesmaid who carried a smaller version of Kirsty's bouquet.  Boxed up and delivered to the venue. Dan's buttonhole featured a spray rose, gyp, dried materials and fresh foliage. The other men wore smaller versions without the spray rose.   In their vases and delivered to the venue.  For the mums I designed two different styles of corsage - one for the lapel and one for the wrist. I dressed the ceremony with a foliage curtain, one of the most popular designs my Houchins couples go for and you can see why - the space is large and neutral, so the foliage adds impact and compliments the outside space perfectly. I also placed a 'long and low' arrangement on the table which was later moved to the top table.   For the reception the couple provided a load of wine bottles which I filled with fresh flowers and placed down the centre of the long banquet tables. I then weaved foliage around the base of the bottles.    The stunning pro photos are courtesy of Farlie Photography:  I hope Kirsty and Dan had the best day! 🤍

Hannah and Adam were married on 21 September 2024 in a church ceremony with their reception to follow at Smeetham Hall Barn. They chose a pretty colour palette of blush pink and white, with their flowers including roses, stocks, snapdragons and gyp.  Hannah's bouquet was pretty and smelt amazing with the stocks and scented foliages. I finished the bouquet with beautiful trailing chiffon ribbon.   The four bridesmaids carried smaller versions of the bridal bouquet, with the same flowers in the same colours.  For the mums I created beautiful corsages of spray roses and gyp.  Delivered to the house where the bride was getting ready. Adam's buttonhole featured spray roses, alstroemeria, gyp and foliage, finished with the same ribbon as the bouquets.  The other men wore smaller versions with a single spray rose, gyp and foliage.  Delivered to the church.  I also provided some pew ends for alternative rows down the aisle in the church, with a selection of flowers from the bouquets and trailing chiffon ribbons.

They chose a pretty colour palette of ivory and champagne with some blush pink, with their flowers including roses, lisianthus, stocks and eucalyptus.  Sue's bouquet was soft and pretty, with floaty eucalyptus and simple ivory ribbon to finish.   There were two adult bridesmaids who carried smaller versions of Sue's bouquet. There was also a little flower girl, who had asked for lilac in the flowers which the couple didn't want so we settled on some trailing lilac ribbons just for her.   Boxed up and delivered to the venue.  Ian's buttonhole featured spray roses, waxflower and eucalyptus.  The other men wore smaller versions with a single focal flower.  For the ladies I designed larger, fancier lapel corsages. Delivered to the venue. The ceremony area looked so beautiful all set up, with chair end flowers, aisle petals, a long and low on the table and a flower and foliage curtain arch framing where the couple would say their vows.    The reception featured all round tables with a glass footed bowl arrangement in the centre of each. The venue hired the mirror plates and the couple added in their own little crystals.   The cake was made by Luca's Cakes and I provided fresh flowers for decorating - it didn't work out timings-wise to be at the venue at the same time so I left the flowers for Raluca to add and full credit for these photos is given to her.  I haven't seen any of the pro photos yet but I hope Sue and Ian had a wonderful day! Stephanie and Sam were married on 3 September 2024 at Leez Priory. They chose a pretty pastel mix of pink, lilac, blue and white for their flowers, which included roses, oxypetalum, clematis, astilbe and stocks.  Stephanie's bouquet was soft and pretty, with floaty eucalyptus and jasmine and simple ivory ribbon to finish off.   The four bridesmaids carried smaller versions with all the same flowers.  Boxed up and delivered to the venue.  Sam's buttonhole featured two spray roses with astilbe and some foliage.  The other men wore slightly smaller versions with a single spray rose.  In their little vases at the venue!  The weather was looking a bit iffy when I arrived to the venue in the morning but thankfully Stephanie decided to risk an outdoor ceremony because look at that gorgeous blue sky! For the ceremony we placed meadow arrangements down the aisle.   These meadow arrangements were then later lined up in front of the top table to make for the most stunning display! I still recommended the top of the table had something so we did some simple bud vases and tealights.   The other tables featured a trio of coloured bud vases and some tealights, which looked so pretty on the pearl beaded table runners. I hired the vases to the couple however the flowers were theirs to keep so they had lots of lovely little posies to gift to their guests!   We supplied fresh flowers for Squidger & Watson to dress the cake with and look how pretty it looked - pearls were obviously a theme!  We also hired some vases to place the bouquets in after photos and we placed these on the windowsills around the reception room.

They went for a classic colour palette of white and green, with the flowers including roses, dahlias, campanula and some stunning orchids.  I loved Jade's bouquet, the orchids added a touch of luxury and were so perfect in all white. I normally shy away from using orchids as I think they intimidate me a bit!! But they were so easy to work with and they're so beautiful.   The five bridesmaids carried smaller versions of Jade's bouquet, without the orchids as we kept them as a special extra for the bride.  All delivered to the venue.  For Carl's buttonhole we paired a calla lily with spray roses and eucalyptus.  For the groomsmen we made smaller versions without the calla.  There was also a ladies wrist corsage of spray roses and astrantia.  The ceremony room looked beautiful all set up, with a long and low on the table, chair ends and petals down the aisle. The chandelier had been decorated for a previous wedding and left up but luckily it was in the same colour palette to my couple benefitted from some extra flowers!  The long and low was moved over and placed on the top table, with some extra vases laid out for the bouquets and chair ends to be moved into after the ceremony.  The tables featured a log slice which we hired to the couple, a gin bottle and two bud vases, each with a few blooms inside. The couple named their tables after the brand of gin and I loved the extra little detail of a miniature of each bottle!  The cake was made of cheese (amazing) and I decorated it with a few fresh blooms.  The pro photos are courtesy of Sharon Cudworth Photography and they're just perfect!    I hope Jade and Carl had the best day 🤍 |
