Hydrangea table centres

Following on from plants in tea cups for favours, hydrangea plants dressed up for table centres. These can then be either taken home by the happy couple and planted in your garden or equally given as thank you's to any special helpers as a lovely reminder of your wedding day.

Vintage style favours

Bored of the same old favours? Give your guests something to take home they will actually keep. Any small plant could be used, but I have chosen two of my favourites; Polyanthus and Bellis perenis.
The small daisy like flower comes in shades of pinks and whites and will continue flowering long after your guests arrive home. The ever popular Polyanthus. Comes in many colours including red, pink, purple, yellow and white. Again this little plant will continue flowering for many weeks and can then be transplanted to a garden, where with any luck it will grow again the following year.
Each of these are presented in vintage style tea cups which are included in the price.

Candelabras and roses

A few photos from the Lincoln wedding fair. I supplied these flowers for Bernadette from Lincolnshire Lanterns for her display at The Old Palace. Apparently the day went well with plenty of brides attending. A tulip and rose display in one of Lincolnshre Lanterns vintage style glass vases. These are available to hire.
A close up of the flowers in the candelabras. I chose pale pink tulips with Heaven roses and ming fern, with white Genista to add some fragrance.

The candelabras complete with candles can be hired through Lincolnshire Lanterns. If flowers are required please get in touch with me for a full quote.


Displayed on a table at The Old Palace, Lincoln. Most items shown can be hired through Lincolnshire Lanterns.

A Cornish Wedding

Back in October Sue and Daren got married in Cornwall. I spent most of the week surrounded by flowers, in their garage. Here are some of the official photos to prove it was well worth it.
The happy couple, outside St Gluvias Church. The bouquet looked stunning against the scarlet dress, with a few red roses placed off centre, and red lipped cymbidium orchids adding just a touch of colour.
One of the bridesmaids posies. Gold and white roses, veronica, and assorted foliage.


The brides hand-tied shower bouquet of cymbidium orchids, red roses, white lilies, hypericum, stephanotis, skimmia and an assortment of foliages.









The stephanotis and lilies gave the most luxurious scent.
