Red and white rose wedding

The flowers from Bryony's wedding on 9th October.
Bryony's flower of choice was the rose, her colour scheme was red, white and blue. Having looked through our portfolio she chose this hand-tie design of red freedom and white akito roses with asparagus fern. To add in a touch of blue we bound the stems with baby blue satin ribbon.
For her 4 maids a simple yet effective single red freedom rose was chosen to stand out against their dresses. To add some movement a few strands of bear grass were added and the stems were again bound with blue satin ribbon.

The two flower girls carried a single passion rose with looped strands of bear grass (for safety) again with blue ribboned stems.
The ladies wore an assortment of rose corsages.
This one is a passion rose with red spray roses, ruscus foliage and bear grass.
A white akito rose with white spray roses, ruscus foliage and bear grass.
An akito rose with white and peach spray roses, ruscus foliage and bear grass.
This wedding was to be collected and as such were placed on a presentation box.

Red, White and Ivory roses

This is Kelly's wedding from Jocastas on Friday. We were recommended to her by one of our previous brides.
For the brides bouquet Kelly had found a picture on the internet of a bouquet she particularly liked and asked me to recreate, although not entirely of the same flowers the style is the same. She chose crystal blush calla lily, akito, maroussia and freedom roses with no foliage. It is a hand-tie design but slightly different to the domed effect I usually create, so you can see more of individual blooms. The stems were covered in ecru satin ribbon to tie in with the bridesmaid dresses.
The three bridesmaids carried a single stem of the gorgeous maroussia rose with a few strands of bear grass. Stems covered in ecru satin ribbon.
Th flower girl carried a single freedom rose with looped strands of bear grass.
The males of the bridal party all wore a single akito rose buttonhole.
The ladies also wore a single akito rose but with a sprig of gyp.

Red and ivory rose wedding

This is the wedding of the lovely Morog who contacted us via the Internet from Guernsey to ask if it was possible to arrange flowers for her wedding at Washingborough Hall Hotel.
She wanted simple but stunning flowers based around red roses.
For the brides bouquet the gorgeous Colombian Freedom red roses matched the colour scheme perfectly. All we were asked to add was diamante pins to the centre of most of the flowers and to bind the stems with ivory satin ribbon and pin with matching red pins.
Her daughter, the bridesmaid, carried a similar style with red, freedom, and ivory, akito, roses. Again with diamante pins and satin ribbon around the stems.
The flower girl carried a silver star wand with a red, freedom, rose with ivory satin bow and trails. The wand handle was also bound in ivory satin ribbon.
The brides mum wore a corsage of a red, freedom, rose and white eustoma with variegated ivy leaves.
All the groomsmen wore a matching freedom rose buttonhole with a single variegated ivy leaf.
