Bridal flowers in pale pink, peach, white and lilac

Here we are once again and I am now sharing the weddings post lockdown but still with many restrictions in place. This, my first of 2021 was held on the day weddings and receptions could go ahead inside but limited to 30 people. 

This couple were always having a small 'do' and kept to their small numbers despite being officially allowed a few more.

The bride had requested a trailing hand tie in an unusual colour scheme of pink, peach, lilac and white and loved roses. To give variety we used large avalanche roses in pink and peach with white spray roses and gyp with lilac eustoma. A single yellow rose was also requested to represent a lost loved one.

Trying fern and jasmine was added for length and movement from the bouquet

The single bridesmaid wore a wrist corsage on a pearl band with a few blooms to match the brides bouquet

The Groom and his men each wore a single pink rose with traditional asparagus fern.

The bride and grooms mum's each wore a corsage with a single white rose with pale pink eustoma blooms with foliage

Special ladies were presented with a single white rose buttonhole. Something I quite like to do especially with a small guest list, makes everyone feel included.

The bouquet and buttonhole ready for delivery on the wedding morning.

These colours work well together even if a little unusual! If you love colours that are not the usual please don't be put off putting them together, the flowers should represent your style and personality not just be, as it's trendy!

If you are looking for something away from the norm, please get in touch to discuss how we can create your dream flowers. I won't say no to any colours scheme!

White and cream bridal flowers with eucalyptus

Still looking back at previous weddings, this was the one and only wedding I created during the Covid hit 2020. It may seem long ago to some but this pandemic hit our wedding industry like nothing ever has and probably will again. A business which normally crates 40-50 weddings a year reduced to 1!

This one was a stunner though!!!

The wedding of R & J was the perfect blend of white and cream flowers with plenty of foliage, especially eucalyptus. 

The bridal bouquet of roses, stocks, freesia, garden roses, astilbe and eustoma with trailing eucalyptus and gorgeous senecio silver foliage. A lot of these are scented to adding a beautiful extra dimension.

R also requested some silver diamanté's to be included throughout and added to pin the cream satin ribbon in place.

The flowers and foliage lend themselves to the gorgeous country style that is still popular.

This eucalyptus was chosen as it has longer thinner leaves and usually has seed heads too.

The single bridesmaid carried a similar posy but without the trailing foliage and diamanté's.

And the two flower girls carried a small version with a couple of each flower variety and foliage

The groom and his men each wore a single rose buttonhole with a eustoma bloom,  eucalyptus leaf and seed heads, senecio leaf and a sprig of Rosemary for the traditional luck. The stems are bound in cream satin ribbon.

The mother of the bride wore a slightly fuller buttonhole and we added diamanté for a touch of glitz. 

All buttonholes are presented pinned on a board and can be labelled for ease on the day.

I always appreciate when couples send over a few professional photos of the day. Unfortunately I wasn't given their name, so if these are yours please get in touch.

The next post will be the ceremony and reception flowers from this gorgeous wedding.

Blush and ivory wedding flowers

Another gorgeous wedding that really should have been shared before now! 

I loved this styling and colours, the blooms chosen are also a personal favourite, and wait till you see the venue!

K & A chose the gorgeous blush and ivory palette for all of their flowers.

The bridal bouquet was a scrumptious mix of seasonal blooms and foliage. Blush roses, eustoma and alstroemerias with ivory roses, ammi and eustoma with gyp and eucalyptus and senecio foliage.

All tied together with blush satin ribbon.

The brief was a loose style not too neat nor messy.

The 6 bridesmaids all carried a smaller version of the bride's bouquet with more emphasis on ivory to stand out against their blush dresses.

The brides posy with two of her maids.

The groomsmen each wore a gorgeous buttonhole of gyp with pheasant feathers, the stems bound with hessian for a true country style.

The mothers each wore a corsage of a selection of blooms from the bridal bouquet.

Blush and ivory/white is still a strong colour scheme for flowers and can work with a number of different coloured suits and dresses, bringing the whole look of the day together.

Is this your favourite colour? Thinking this may work for your special day? Please get in touch to discuss your style, budget and options.

Don't forget to check back for the wedding reception at Cleatham Hall.

Summer Pastel pink and white bridal flowers

Today I have a beautiful summer wedding that I really should have shared with you before now. This was a fabulous wedding at The Lincoln Hotel and today I will show you the bridal party blooms and displays.

V & G had chosen the colours of white, pink and champagne peach for their florals and once unloaded while they were hydrating I couldn't resist I had to take their pictures!

Beautiful Ammi, or Queen Annes Lace

The stunning oriental lilies being coaxed open

The fabulous array of blooms I was lucky enough to be creating with

and not forgetting the foliage too!

The bride decided to carry a stunning traditional shower bouquet with a mix of white oriental lilies, pink roses, Champagne stocks, eustoma, ammi and mixed foliage.

Adding a modern twist of little butterflies and loops of lily grass.

Loving the gorgeous sweet avalanche pink roses with the pure white lilies.

The side profile so you can see the beautiful champagne double eustoma along with the pink roses and lily

One of my favorite pale pink roses, Sweet Avalanche.

The bride also wore a 3/4 flower crown, to allow room for  her veil to sit.

This glorious crown matched her bouquet with champagne eustoma, pink roses, spray roses ammi and foliage.

The 3 adult bridesmaids each carried a hand tied posy of roses, eustoma, stocks, ammi and pistachio foliage. Tied with white satin ribbon.

A glorious summer mix of blooms.

The 3 flower girls each carried a silver heart shaped wand with a single rose and ammi corsage and trailing ribbons.

The groomsmen all wore matching pale pink rose buttonhole with ammi florets, pistachio foliage and lily grass loops.

The special ladies wore a traditional corsage of white eustoma flowers and foliage.

Buttonholes and corsage ready for delivery to the hotel where the co-ordinater will hand them out.

The bride's party flowers all ready for on the morning delivery. The bride's shower bouquet was a biggie so needed its own social box and instructions on unpacking.

The hotel flowers will be blogged on Monday, make sure you come back for lots more pretty from this wonderful wedding.
