White Calla lilies and Gerberas

 Back we go to the start of the wedding season. Our first bride was on Mothering Sunday, not a day we generally agree to do weddings but Hayley wanted simple designs for her and her maids with a few buttonholes so we agreed.
Hayley's bouquet was a mass of white calla lilies with aspidistra leaves curled around them with the stems bound with another leaf and pinned with pearl headed pins.

 The five bridesmaids each carried an overarm bouquet of six white gerberas with aspidistra leaves, to tie in with the brides flowers, and bear grass. The stems were bound with white satin ribbon.

The groom wore a white calla lily buttonhole with curled aspidistra strips and bear grass while the grooms-men each wore a single white germini buttonhole.

Calla lilies and Gerberas

 These are the wedding flowers of David and Katie who were married back in July. David has been a customer of ours for some time and so it was a delight to finally meet Katie in person.
Their colour scheme was purple and white and Katie loves gerberas, with David liking the calla lilies and there we had the flowers sorted! The brides bouquet was white gerberas, picasso and schwartzwalder callas with salal foliage. The stems were bound in ribbon matching the bridesmaid dresses.

As a surprise for Katie, David asked us to make a replica of the bouquet in silk as Katie had already said she wanted to lay the fresh bouquet on a family grave and would be disappointed to leave it.

 The adult bridesmaid carried a similar bouquet but with just the white gerberas and picasso callas.

 The two flower girls both carried a crystal bead wand with a picasso calla and ribbon.

 The groom and best man each wore a picasso calla lily buttonhole with bear grass and foliage loops. These then had purple wire wrapped around the stems.

The rest of the grooms-men wore a similar calla lily buttonhole.

 The ladies each wore a calla lily buttonhole with lavender flowers and foliage loops.

We also provided a calla lily wrist corsage with lavender flowers and various foliage.

Thank you to David and Katie for choosing us to create the flowers for your wedding day.

As turquoise was the colour chosen for the bridesmaids dresses, it was decided to keep the flowers white. Sam chose calla lilies for her bouquet with roses to tie in with the bridesmaids. Turquoise feathers were added to add a splash of colour and 'lift' the bouquet against her dress. White satin ribbon was bound around the stems with turquoise pins.
Her two maids carried a white rose hand-tie again with turquoise feathers.

A Classic White Wedding

A classic white wedding theme was chosen by Louise for her wedding on Saturday.
After much thought a traditional tear-drop design was chosen for the bridal bouquet with white avalanche roses, white crystal blush calla lily and ivory Asiatic lily. Soft ruscus and tree fern provided a dark green background for the flowers.The butterflies were provided by the bride to be included in her bouquet as they were being used throughout the wedding.
The Maid of Honour had a hand-tie posy of 3 avalanche roses and 3 heads of ivory oriental lily with a few sprigs of tree fern. All bound together with ivory satin ribbon finished off with a small bow.
The two other bridesmaids carried a simple posy of 3 avalanche roses with sprigs of tree fern. Finished off as above.
The two Mothers had a very simple yet elegant spray of freesia with silver ting ting and a silver bow to complement their outfits.
