Blue and Ivory wedding at Woodhall Spa Manor

Blue is always popular for May weddings and today's offering is no different.
This wedding was all sorted by email as the bride and groom lived away and I only met them on the wedding morning on delivery!



 The bridal bouquet was a hand tie design of blue hydrangeas, bluebells, muscari, thistle and large and spray ivory roses with eucalyptus foliage.



The bridesmaid bouquet was very similar but smaller.


The buttonholes were a single ivory rose with bluebell spike and muscari heads with eucalyptus



The ceremony and reception was a small gathering and was held at Woodhall Spa Manor 
The ceremony table was decorated with a long and low design in a mixture of the bridal flowers.



This was taken through to the top table for the wedding breakfast.


This was posy was to be used for the round guest table but as we like to give value we chose to display this on the welcoming seat at the back of the ceremony room. The bride and her guests would see this on entering and walking back down the aisle.

Blue and Yellow wedding flowers

 This wedding was one of my favorites from last year. I loved the ideas from the beginning. Always great to have a different colour scheme to work with.
Shower bouquets are getting more popular and work with a variety of styles of wedding dress. This one is so pretty, lots of differing shades of blue with a hint of yellow in a variety of spring/early summer flowers.

We have yellow lilies and tulips with blue iris, nigella, bluebells, forget-me-nots and delphiniums and ivy and fern foliage.


The bridesmaids who wore blue dresses carried yellow hand tie bouquets of lilies, chyrsants, freesia and tulips with asparagus fern.




The flower girls carried a silver heart shaped wand with a yellow tulip, freesia and chrysant flower


The groom wore a lovely buttonhole of an Iris with Nigella, delphinium florets and forget-me-nots.

The groomsmen wore very similar but slightly smaller versions


The mums wore a corsage of yellow and blue, including tulips, freesia, chrysants, nigella, bluebell and delphiniums



While other bridal party guests wore buttonholes of 3 tulips and forget-me-nots


and the page boys wore a single tulip version.


The cake was adorned with fresh flowers of a mixture of the blue varieties 


each expertly added by the lovely Beckie of Bake Your Day


The top table at The Old Palace had its own display, a long and low design of a mixture as the brides bouquet



We also provided some small thank you bouquets in the wedding colours to give out during the speeches.


If you like any of these designs and are getting married in or around Lincolnshire or surrounding counties please give me a call to discuss your own wedding flowers.

Wedding set up at Branston Hall

Following on from yesterday's post, this is the wedding ceremony and reception set up at Branston Hall.
The Churchill suite was dressed in blue and white for the ceremony.


We provided the flowers and bay trees with artificial ivory roses in the 'tree', blue bases and ivory ribbon around the stems. (£10 each to hire) 


The long and low flower display was a mixture from the bridal bouquet


Hydrangeas, tulips, thistle, agapanthus, alstroemeria, roses, veronica and mixed foliage.
This would be transferred to the top table for the wedding breakfast.



The guest tables each had a fish bowl with a central candle and a mix of the same flowers within the bowl.





As Branston Hall turn around the Churchill suite while you are having your photographs taken we set up in the bar area, so not a true idea of the full set up. (no chairs!!)



We were also asked to provide two thank you bouquets in similar colours to the rest of the wedding flowers. These are usually given out within the speeches.



If you like the flowers that I am showcasing and are looking for wedding flowers please get in contact to discuss your requirements.

Blue, white and ivory wedding flowers

This is such a gorgeous colour scheme for May. The flowers are in season, summer is starting but still with a hint of spring varieties.
The bride had chosen powder blue as her main colour and we added in differing shades to give the flowers some depth along with the white and ivory.


Flowers included white tulips and alstroemeria, small ivory roses, blue hydrangea, muscari, thistle, agapanthus and veronica


The stems were bound with satin ribbon


The 4 bridesmaids each carried a similar style bouquet but as they were wearing blue we chose more whites and ivories.


These included tulips, roses, alstroemeria, muscari and thistles.


Stems were bound in the same blue ribbon.


All the groomsmen each wore a buttonhole of a tulip with muscari and hydrangea floret with a curled leaf.



The two mum's wore a wrist corsage of a mix of flowers from the brides bouquet.




Wedding reception flowers at Branston Hall follow on tomorrow.

If you like any of the designs I am showcasing please get in touch to see how I may help you create your dream wedding flowers.

Yellow and white wedding flowers

These are such bright and fresh wedding party flowers. The bride didn't want any foliage at all in the bouquets and I added only minimal to the buttonholes.
The bridal bouquet was a lovely mix of yellow calla lilies, craspedia and avalanche roses.

Bride's bouquet



The matron of honor carried a small bouquet of avalanche roses and craspedia flowers


While the flower girls all carried small bunches of yellow craspedia


The groom's buttonhole matched his bride's bouquet with a yellow calla lily and avalanche rose


While the groomsmen wore and avalanche rose with craspedia flower


and the page boys small buttonholes of two craspedia heads.
