Spring wedding flowers

Today we are looking at spring weddings. This is an excellent time of year to be married with lots of gorgeous spring flowers around. 
For budgets, I would say be careful of higher prices around St Valentines Day (14th Feb) and Mothering Sunday (11th March 2018, 31st March 2019, 22nd March 2020).

To the flowers; These gorgeous daffodil bouquets for your bridesmaids will make for a bright and cheerful wedding. If yellow is your colour, or accent (these would look fab with navy dresses). Just make sure the stems are fully wrapped so as the sap doesn't stain any dresses.



For the bride, a traditional shower shaped bouquet with lots of narcissus, small daffodils and roses. This was a highly scented bouquet and smelt divine.


In spring we can also get the beautiful cyclamen as a cut flower. Again these make excellent small posies for your maids. Coming in a range of colours from white, pink, purple and reds. Another highly scented bouquet.


Classic spring white and green (Greenery is colour of the year), this is a lovely fresh colour scheme with gorgeous germini, freesia, viburnum, bupleurum and foliage


and the maids posy too.


For something more vibrant, blue hydrangea, cappuccino roses and pink tulips


Another hand tie design of roses, double tulips, hyacinths, and foliage.


Or how about anemone? An all anemone bouquet brings lovely jewel colours together, or stick with one shade. These come in reds, purple, deep pink, blue, and white.


A blue colour scheme needn't miss out. The beautiful blue muscari are delicate and highly scented and make cute posies for your ladies.




The wonderful lily of the valley. This is available all year round now but beware, it is pricey for such a small flower. It is best (and cheapest) in it's natural season.


A beautiful all white/ivory bouquet. Filled with roses, spray roses, eustoma, ranunculus, and freesia with added sparkle to catch those early rays of sunshine.


Tulips!! What's not to love? These all tulip bouquets are so simple yet so pretty. Tulips come in a vast colour range, size of head and single, double and parrot varieties, there is bound to be something for your colour scheme.

On to the men;

Buttonholes, should we feel, mirror the bridal bouquet. The groom and best man traditionally had a double flower from the bridal bouquet, but anything goes today.
A daffodil buttonhole wil certainly brighten up a dark suit.



For the groom a design of mixed narcissus


Page boy? How about two tiny sol d'or flower heads and fern


Tulips make great buttonholes, double or single


or teamed with another flower.




For the ladies don't forget we can create traditional lapel corsages, wrist corsages or a bespoke design  for their hand bag.


To decorate your ceremony we can create archways. This one is filled with a mix of narcissus and cuscus foliage, the scent just filled the room. 



For the guest tables we can provide these lovely nest designs, perfect for spring, filed with daffodils,


a mix of seasonal flowers, maybe in vibrant colours




or a more neutral theme.


Love fish bowls for your guest tables? These were filed with yellow stones and floating daisy heads






Wanting tulips? A tulip display in your colours with fern and ginista make a perfect spring display your guests can take home with them.


And don't forget the top table, mirror your guest table flowers in a larger display for you.


Are you getting wed in the spring time? We have many ideas and can source any spring flower. We are also working closely with British growers and this should work fantastic as we are a nation of lovers of spring blooms and Lincolnshire are where many grow.

Spring wedding ceremony and reception

An overview of the White Hart Hotel's ceremony room with archway and table display ready for the service

Helen held her ceremony at The White Hart Hotel in Lincoln. The 
ceremony room is a lovely space, with the overhead dome letting in 
plenty of light.

We framed the ceremony space with a free standing archway 
covered in organza and with a front garland of foliage and 
bunches of various types of small daffodils and narcissus.
Bay trees with ivory roses and organza finished off the look.

The ceremony table was also treated to a long and low display of a 
mix of ivory roses, narcissus, daffodils and a few sweet peas. This 
was later transferred to the top table.

Spring Themed Wedding

Helen’s decided to use spring in her favour and used all seasonal flowers – A lovely mix 
of narcissus and daffodils with a few white roses.
The brides bouquet was a traditional teardrop shape with the white roses and an 
assortment of white, cream and pale yellow narcissus and small daffodils.

Not wanting any foliage this was a tightly packed flower design and the narcissus gave 
off a lovely scent.

All the bridesmaids carried a hand tie posy of bright yellow daffodils. As these are 
sappy flowers the stems had to be completely bound up with ribbon and Helen decided 
to continue the yellow theme.

There were 5 bridesmaids and here are there flowers all ready for delivery.
