English country style bouquets

I first met Lucy at The Lincoln Wedding Fayre where I was displaying in The Judges Lodgings back in October.
When we met for a consult she had a clear idea on what flowers and style she wanted and had gathered a few pictures to show me. The wedding was going to fairly informal with a country feel to it with a marquee in the garden for the reception, and the flowers reflected this;
Peonies, large bloom roses, sweetpeas and heather.
The two smaller bridesmaids carried hand-tie posies of peonies, sweetpeas, Heaven, Lenny and Prima donna roses with sprigs of heather.

 Lucy gave me the fabric to wrap around the stems of the bouquets.
 The peonies will have continued to open throughout the day and the scent from these, the sweetpeas and roses was divine.
