Wedding flowers at The Mount Pleasant Hotel Bawtry

This is the fabulous reception set up of A and O at The Mount Pleasant Hotel at Bawtry.
The displays alternated between high, candelabras, and low, pumpkin vases.

Our candelabras are 100cm tall and theses were displayed with long taper candles.
The display was a flower ball between the arms allowing for 5 candles and the gorgeous flowers used were roses and carnations in both pale pink and champagne with mixed foliage.


They were sat on large round mirrors.


The low displays were a couple of silver pumpkin vases with pink roses and carnations with champagne roses and wax flower.
These make really cute table centrepieces for your guests.


The top table had a long and low design


filled with scrumptious flowers as the bride's bouquet (here) such as roses, wax flower, spray roses and eustoma.


Unfortunately we arrived at the same time as the lovely ladies from the chair cover company and didn't get to see the room completely dressed.



Thank you hand ties were also provided for presentation during the speeches.



If anyone has any doubts about the way we transport flowers to the venues I took these shots on loading the van up for this wedding.
I may get odd looks from having such a large van BUT on occasions such as this wedding it is so easy to load, transport and unload with flowers in order of need.


Church flowers at the front, bridal designs next with buttonholes and reception flowers at the rear and plenty of room left for a larger set up.


On this occasion I had a helper and after the whole set up was complete we stopped off for a coffee and gingerbread man, a small treat after a busy morning.


If you are getting married at The Mount Pleasant Hotel or love any of the designs above do get in touch to see how we can transform your venue with flowers.

All the candelabras and vases were hired from us and part of our care and service is to collect all of these items the next day, working with the hotel, so you don't have to worry. All sorted, generally, before breakfast.

I look forward to hearing from you

Winter wedding at Washingborough Hall

The ceremony and reception of yesterday's wedding were held at the beautiful Washingborough Hall Hotel. If you are looking for an all in venue with beautiful grounds then this has to be on your list. A Georgian manor house that is privately owned and has been lovingly restored makes a perfect venue for you and your guests.
The ceremony takes place in the gorgeous Winston room and Catriona kept the theme of gyp throughout the displays. A long gyp display adorned the ceremony table while large lanterns decorated the aisle.


Pumpkin vases of gyp were also dotted around the windowsills and plinths.



For the wedding breakfast gyp balls were sat on low conical vases allowing guests clear vision across the table allowing the natural flow of conversation.



In case you are wondering the chairs are brought in from the ceremony room while photographs are being taken. The tables are also spread out between the two rooms allowing lots of natural light in.


The top table had the gyp display from the ceremony display plus another section added and then the pumpkin vases were displayed along the rest of the length.

More tomorrow as I show you some of the professional images.

If you are getting married here at Washingborough Hall or any other Manor House venue please give me a call so we can discuss how you may set your flower style.

A vintage inspired reception at Skellingthorpe Community Centre

Sandy's reception was held in the Skellingthorpe Community Centre. The vintage inspired theme looked really lovely in here.
The top table display was two square bird cages ( hired from Simply Charming by Julie) filled with the same flowers as the bridal bouquet: Stocks, Eustoma, Astrantia, Nigella and roses with mixed foliage.
They were to trail towards each other but not be overhanging.

The guest tables had two different ideas on them with flowers on half. The others were vintage books and accessories personal to the bride and groom.
The flowers were my small pastel (pink and blue) pumpkin vases. Three were filled again with an assortment of flowers to compliment the bridal bouquet.

Skellingthorpe Community Centre all ready for the arrival of the happy couple and their guests.

Pumpkin vases and candlesticks

 New for this year.....Small candlesticks and pumpkin vases. The candlesticks are in a pale smokey blue, as above, in three different sizes.
 The soft pink are in two sizes. They look great on there own or mixed in colours/sizes.
 I have matching pumpkin vases in both colours which look fabulous on their own with a night candle or filled with a dainty mix of flowers.
 The pumpkin vases also come in silver.

These are all available to hire with flowers for your wedding or if you prefer you can hire to DIY. Candles are included with each hire. Please note: It is up to the hirer to clear the use of candles with each venue. I accept no liability for any damaged cause.
