Amie and Jon's wedding

Amie and Jon were married on 14 October 2017 at Maison Talbooth and held their reception at sister venue Le Talbooth. I'd been looking forward to this wedding all year - Amie had some really exciting ideas which I couldn't wait to design. I used the beautifully scented 'Yves Piaget' garden rose as a focal flower in Amie's bouquet and on the cake, and the bridal bouquet and groom's buttonhole also featured succulents.

The bouquets were so beautiful with all the bright colours. I also made a couple of cute little gypsophila wands for the flower girls, along with corsages, a special buttonhole for the groom and buttonholes for all his men.

The marquee was so white everywhere that the flowers added a really bold pop of colour to the room. The wedding was a small one with only four tables plus the top table, and the couple went for two different designs for their centrepieces. The first one was using my gold candlesticks which again showed how versatile they are by working with absolutely any colour palette. On the other two tables was a trio of ribbed sweetie jars which included a lovely mix of flowers from the wedding. The gorgeous cake was by Lucky & Co and it smelt absolutely divine. There were groupings of different jam jars placed throughout the room on different tables a and surfaces.

The real statement piece to this wedding was these stunning willow trees 'growing' up the marquee poles. They made such a great statement in the venue and were so fun to make - you can see Alana here in action making the final touches to them! It was such a shame to have to take these down after such a short time - so much so that I've recreated one outside my workshop (just with fairy lights rather than flowers!)

The stunning professional photographs were taken by Stylish Wedding Photography - they've captured the colours so beautifully. And what a great shot of the bride's bouquet! This is the sort of photo a florist loves to see!

How stunning is Amie's dress!! The back was so intricately detailed, I got a glimpse at midnight when I went back to clear down. Congratulations to the newlyweds, thank you for letting me have so much fun with your wedding flowers!
