The Old Palace, Lincoln

Susie's wedding reception was held in the stunning Old Palace. A favourite venue of mine, hidden away behind the Cathedral it is not very well known but getting more popular as time goes on.
Susie and her mum had thought about doing their own table centres and had already gathered the kilner jars and ceramic jugs for this purpose. They did decide though, after talking to me, that it would be much easier, and less stressful, if they handed them all to me to fill and set up. They did add the bows to all the designs in readiness of the flowers.
All the vases were to be filled with the same mix of flowers as the brides bouquet with delphiniums added to create some height.

The flower mix was Forget me nots, muscari, Hydrangea, Scillia (bluebells), spray roses with fountain grass.
On the top table we had two smaller ceramic jugs
and two larger ones.

The fabulous fire place was also given a couple of kilner jars and candles.


The cake was beautiful. Quite simple in design but with the blue ribbon and the mixed posy on top it really looked stunning.
The cake table was also decorated with muscari bunches to add extra colour.



The landing outside the room had a table full of family photos and the guest book and as we had a spare jar and forget me nots and muscari left these were added on to the table.

Blue hydrangeas, bluebells, Forget me nots, Muscari and roses

This was a fabulous wedding from May last year. One of my favourites to design and create with a lovely mix of seasonal flowers. Susie (bride) wanted a seasonal bouquet of mainly blue flowers and we narrowed the choice down to Forget me nots, Muscari, Hydrangeas and Scillia (bluebells) with spray roses and eucalyptus. All these flowers work really well together in a hand tie design. The stems were bound with ivory ribbon and a lace overlay held in place with pearl headed pins.
Brides Bouquet
The three adult bridesmaids carried a similar bouquet with added larger roses to replace the hydrangers and to add in some ivory to stand out against their blue dresses.
Bridesmaid Bouquet

Flower girl bouquet
The two flower girls carried a small hand tie of spray roses, muscari, forget me nots and scillia. All the stems were bound as per the brides with ivory satin ribbon and lace.
Grooms Buttonhole
Rose and Muscari buttonhole
Susie requested lots of varying buttonholes for the groom, best man and ushers. The grooms was a single ivory rose with hydrangea florets, a scillia head, a couple of muscari and sprig of eucalyptus and fountain grass.
The ushers wore a single ivory rose with muscari, ruscus and fountain grass.
Also different designs for the ladies. All were labelled up on the day with the persons name and relationship to the couple. This saved any worry for the bride and ensured all wore the correct flower.
