Civil Ceremony Flower Ideas

 Are you having a civil service? Her's a few ideas to decorate your chosen room.
Most of my lovely brides chose a traditional long and low for the registrars table. These work well s they are a focus for the front of the room and won't get in your registrars way.


 The top two are at Branston Hall.
 This combination is also popular if there is room. A long and low with a single, or duel (as below), pedestal.
Both of these are at Charlotte House.
 At The Epic centre.

 An autumn display at Hemswell court on their lower table.
 A different idea of two posies at The Judges Lodgings.
 It is also good to work with the features of the room. Use a fireplace or mantlepiece adding displays for extra colour.

 Two more long and lows.
 How about getting married under an archway. Just because you are getting married indoors doesn't mean you have to be conventional. This was at Elsham Hall.
 Bay trees can be placed at doorways or to line a walkway or behind the table.

 Mantlepiece design.
 Fishbowls can be used for a simple design.
 Or a flat cylinder design as a modern posy.

All of these designs can be moved to your reception and usually the lovely staff at your venue will oblige.

Cath Kidston inspired reception at Elsham Hall

 Louise got in touch with me via Elaine at Elsham Hall to decorate her reception. She already knew what she wanted as her theme and bridal flowers were all sorted by the time I got involved. The reception was inspired by Cath Kidston with bunting and flowers in creams, pale pinks and lilacs and chair bows, runners and detailing in turquoise.
The guest table displays were to be arranged in wellington boots with lots of large headed roses, stocks and ivy in the design.
 The wellingtons worked well with the colours and feel of the day.

 Four of the radiator covers were also treated to a display. They included sweet avalanche roses, lilac and cream stocks and stallion chrysants.
 Elaine had placed tea lights in every crevice there was. It must have looked spectacular at night.
 The top table was a long and low design of the same flowers. The trellis behind was treated to roses with ivy trails as well as more bunting.
 The pedestal displays were placed in Elsham's urns. Again using the same flower mix as before.


 The barn at Elsham Hall ready and waiting for the arrival of the bride and groom. It really did look stunning and the scent was just gorgeous.
