Woodland Waters

 Jenny's reception was at Woodland Waters. This is a holiday and fishing park with a large function room and has lovely views across the lake.
To give the aisle some focus Jenny asked for an archway with a foliage garland and germinis. The sides and back are covered in ivory organza.


 The registrars table had a similar garland of ruscus foliage and germinis as did the officials table below. These were later, along with a third piece, set along the top table.

 The guest tables each had a small hanging birdcage, provided by the bride, with a single germini in the centre.

 I also provided thank you bouquets and a special one (below) for a guests anniversary.

The Oaklands Hotel, Grimsby

Following on from the church service was the wedding breakfast at The Oaklands Hotel, Grimsby.
The top table display was split into 3 separate designs. A larger middle arrangement with two similar but smaller designs at either end.


The flowers were of a similar content to the brides bouquet with germini, freesia, viburnum, bupleurum and white stallion chrysants with a mix of foliage.

























 The guest tables each had a medium fish bowl with ivory germini and bear grass with an ivory candle and clear crystal stones in the base.

I also dressed the table with tea lights in small glass holders and clear table crystals.













Each of the ladies chairs was dressed with an added germini with diamante in the chair bow.











The whole room all ready and waiting the arrival of the bride and groom.











I love receiving emails like this a week after the wedding.

Hi Sandra
Thank you so much. The flowers were absolutely stunning and are still going strong now!
It's been a pleasure having you do the flowers for the wedding.

St Giles Church Scartho

This wedding service took part in St Giles Church Scartho.
The pew ends were simple bunches of ivory germinis with bupleurum and china grass loops tied together with an ivory bow.


 As this is only a small church the bride decided to have all the pews decorated.
 We also added two windowsill arrangements in the same mix of flowers as the brides bouquet.
At the entrance to the church stood two bay trees to greet the guests. These were decorated with ivory roses and ribbons.

Ivory and green wedding flowers

This may be a little later than promised but here is the first wedding of 2013.
A lovely spring colour combination of ivory and green. The main flowers were germini with other spring flowers.

 The brides bouquet consisted of ivory germini, freesia and hyacinths with green viburnum, bupleurum and loops of china grass. A light collar of salal was added with the stems bound in ivory ribbon with green shoestring ribbon criss-crossed around diamante pins.
 The 3 bridesmaids carried a similar bouquet of mainly germini, freesia, bupleurum and china grass. Diamante pins were added to the centres of the germinis and the stems were bound with the same ribbon as the bridal bouquet.
 The little flower girl carried a silver heart wand with a single germini and china grass loops.
 The guys were each given a single germini with china grass loops as buttonholes.
The mums wore a similar design but one was a lapel corsage (above) and the other a wrist corsage (below)
These were of the same flower content as the brides bouquet.

St Gluvias Church, Penryn

St Gluvias church was the setting for Sue and Daren's blessing. A gorgeous church with alot of light made a welcome sight on Friday when I arrived with the pedestals and vases. I was busy finishing off the arrangements while the wedding rehersal went ahead. Sue had decided on two pedestals at the front of the aisle, one at the back facing the doorway and 2 large vase arrangements which were to be positioned near the door. However after talking to the vicar it was decided to place these on two small tables at the back of the church. The pew ends were made and hung in position Saturday just before the service.

A simple pew end of a single white rose, fountain grass, skimmia, hypericum berries and galax leaves.


The pedestals included white oriental lilies, cream roses, germinis, eustoma and stallion chrysants with red gerberas and plenty of foliage.


The flowers behind were created by the church ladies and greatly added to the floral display.

I also added to the porch 4 bowls from the reception and two baytrees, one either side the entrance. Unfortunately I never got around to taking photos as I became involved with pinning on everyones buttonhole.
