Lily and Craig were married on 3 September 2022 at Houchins. The bride's favourite colour is orange so they went for classic autumnal for their flowers, with roses, etc in shades of orange, red and yellow, with peaches and lots of foliage. Lily's bouquet was so vivid and beautiful, with lots of foliage to compliment the flowers and orange ribbon to finish. It matched perfectly with the bride's dressing gown when I delivered it to her! The four bridesmaids carried smaller versions of Lily's bouquet. Lily also had a man of honour, so I made him a special buttonhole with a mix of flowers to match the bouquets. Boxed up and delivered to the venue. Craig's buttonhole featured orange spray roses, bunny tails, foliage and mini succulents. The other men wore smaller versions without the succulents. Delivered to the venue. The ceremony area at Houchins looked beautiful all set up, with my foliage curtain and a garland of flowers along the table. The venue looked fabulous all set up. The tables were fairly simple in design, set out in a banquet style with runners down the middle. The bride and groom then provided a load of wine bottles which I filled with flowers. Each table had a different colour scheme, so for the first table which the bride and groom were to sit on was orange. I filled the wine bottles on this table with all orange flowers, with a few pops of burgundy running throughout. There was also foliage loosely placed along the table at the base of the bottles. The second table was peach, again with some burgundy dotted throughout. The third and final table was yellow, giving a wonderful pop of colour to the venue. The bride and groom also provided a vase to be placed next to the table plan, so I filled this with a bouquet of flowers to match the rest of the wedding.

Ellea and Ian were married on 29 August 2022 at Gosfield Hall. They chose pretty pinks and whites for their flowers, which included roses, spray roses, stocks and gypsophila, with soft toned eucalyptus foliage. Ellea's bouquet was so pretty, soft and fluffy with a beautiful fragrance from the stocks. We finished with trailing ribbon in pink and ivory. The six bridesmaids carried smaller bouquets of all white flowers, with the ribbon kept neat to the stem. The two little flower girls carried baskets with fresh rose petals inside for them to scatter. All boxed up and ready for delivery! Ian wore a double spray rose buttonhole in all white, with lovely eucalyptus and pink ribbon. The other men wore smaller versions with a single rose and ivory ribbon. For the mums we designed wrist corsages of all white flowers on pearl beaded bracelets. Delivered to the venue, with a thank you bouquet for the groom's mum. The ceremony was held outside on a beautiful sunny day. The couple brought in a bench which was dedicated to the groom's late father which I thought was a lovely idea. We tied a little posy of flowers to this and placed a long and low arrangement on the table. The silk blossom trees were hired from a different company but framed the whole area beautifully. The long and low was later used on the top table, with bud vases dotted along the rest of the table. The couple hired silk blossom trees for half of their tables and then used some of the bridesmaid bouquets on the others - we made a bit more of a feature of these with a mirror plate and tealights in glass votives. We decorated the single tier cake by Bear and Cub Cakes and doughnut tower provided by the couple with fresh flowers - my tummy was rumbling while doing this because it all smelt so yummy! A little thank you bouquet for the groom's mum. I haven't seen any of the professional photos yet but here's a little preview of the happy couple from instagram: I hope Ellea and Ian had a lovely day!
Debbie and Peter were married on 27 August 2022 at Warley Park Golf Club. They chose soft champagne tones and whites for their flowers which included roses, lisianthus, freesia, phlox and hydrangea. Debbie's bouquet was so pretty, kept a bit more structured but still with lots of lovely textures and soft eucalyptus foliage to compliment. The freesias added the most delicate fragrance. The three bridesmaids carried smaller versions of Debbie's bouquet, with simple ivory ribbon to finish. Boxed up and ready for delivery! Peter's buttonhole featured two porcelina spray roses with eucalyptus, with single roses for the other men. Delivered to the venue! The welcome sign was adorned with this fabulous balloon arch which I provided some loose stems of gypsophila to decorate. I did ask the couple if the balloon artist (apologies I don't know the company name) would be able to add the gyp as I have a bit of a phobia of balloons!! The ceremony was held out on a jetty over the water which was such a beautiful setting. We decorated the area with clusters of flowers on the beams and foliage garlands, with a long and low arrangement on the table. There were already some silk flower garlands around the handrails but thankfully as they were just white and green they worked well with the fresh flowers. The room they use for the wedding breakfast was just beautiful, with stunning lights overhead and lots of natural light from the french doors. On each of the tables we placed a lovely floral arrangement in a glass footed bowl, all of which were designed so that the flowers could be given to guests/taken home at the end of the night. The classic cake was decorated with a cluster of flowers off to one side - the detail on the cake was stunning so it really didn't need much else! And just a couple of thank you bouquets to finish off. I haven't seen any pro photos yet but here's a little preview of the happy couple! I hope Debbie and Peter had a wonderful day!
Louise and Paul were married on 20 August 2022 at Le Talbooth in Dedham. They went for classic all whites for their flowers, which included roses, spray roses, stocks, lisianthus and scabious. Louise's bouquet was soft and pretty - you really can't go wrong with all white and green! It's such a timeless classic, drawn together with ivory satin ribbon. The two bridesmaids carried smaller versions of Louise's bouquet. Paul wore a double spray rose buttonhole, with single versions for the other men. I used a mix of different eucalyptuses and some olive for the foliage. Delivered to the venue! The couple ordered five ladies wrist corsages on pearl bracelets, all made with spray roses and gyp. The ceremony was held in the restaurant part of Le Talbooth and they kept things simple with just a long and low on the table which would later be moved to the top table. The reception was held in the marquee overlooking the water, and the white and green table arrangements complimented it beautifully. The couple went for tall designs on my glass conical vases, with some bud vases and tealights at the base. The long and low was placed on the top table and there were also some vases for the bridesmaid bouquets and lots of tealights in glass votives. The elegant cake was made by Tilly's Cakes and Bakes, and Louise asked us to dress it simply with some gypsophila, so we placed a few sprigs on the cake and the rest around the base. We're always careful to tape the end of every stem so there's nothing going into the actual cake that could be harmful. A couple of thank you bouquets to finish off! These previews from The Edge Photogaphy are just beautiful! I hope Louise and Paul had a wonderful day!
