Garden roses

Are you looking for scented flowers for your wedding? Do you love roses?

Then these gorgeous garden roses may be what you are looking for. There are many varieties and colours available (watch out for another post on these). This variety is called O'hara and it is a lovely pale pink which opens up into a huge rose, getting paler as it opens.
A brides bouquet made entirely of O'hara roses, the scent is fabulous. There are galax leaves at the base of the roses to cover the bear stems.
Detail is added on the stems by wrapping them in satin ribbon and then adding small pale pink butterflies.
A matching groom's buttonhole. A single O'hara rose with galax foliage and lily grass loops with a small butterfly centre.
A single O'hara buttonhole suitable for a guest.

Oriental lily and rose wedding

Katie and Jamie's wedding from May.

The bride wanted to incorporate oriental lilies into her bouquet, but wanted to keep it quite neat. The bouquet I designed had the lilies as the focal flower with white roses used to add length and shape to the design. Baby blue eucalyptus also added shape and interest. The scent of this bouquet was gorgeous.
Katie's four bridesmaids all carried a simple design of 3 lily heads wired together with baby blue eucalyptus. The stems were covered with ivory satin ribbon.
The grooms men all wore buttonholes of a single white rose with baby blue eucalyptus.
The two mums wore corsages of white roses and freesia.
