Peacock coloured reception at Charlotte House Hotel

Sarah and Dan's colour scheme was carried on through the reception arrangements.

They provided the zinc buckets which they had painted in blues and lilacs. We were then asked to fill them in a posy style with matching flowers from the bouquets and more peacock feathers.

 Included are:
Blue Delphiniums, purple eustoma and stocks, lilac freesia and rose and pink astilbe.

 The reception was held at Charlotte House Hotel.
The tables were dressed with a mixture of lilac and blue napkins and tea light holders.

 As the wedding ceremony was also held here the chairs would be moved back after it had finished.

The top table was treated to the same designs.

 The ceremony room, not quite ready, had two bay trees either side the registrars table.

With two trees either side the door too. These had ivory roses with lilac ribbon and tulle bases.

A peacock inspired wedding

 Sarah and Dan's wedding was a colourful affair based on the gorgeous jewelled tones of the peacock feather. These HAD to be incorporated into all the designs. The flowers being included were largely left to me to get the best blooms available at the time as long as they stayed in the blue/purple/pink palette
Sarah's bouquet was a mix of purple lisianthus, freesia, stocks, alliums, Ocean song roses, Blue delphiniums and pink astilbe with a good amount of peacock eye feathers in. The stems were bound in purple ribbon and pinned with blue pearl headed pins..

 The two adult bridesmaids carried a very similar but smaller bouquet.

 The smaller bridesmaid carried a smaller still bouquet,

 and the flower girl carried a silver heart wand with purple lisianthus flowers, lilac ribbon and bows with the all important peacock eye feathers.

 The groom's buttonhole was a collection of an Ocean song rose, purple freesia and lisianthus and a peacock feather.

 The rest of the bridal party wore a single Ocean song rose buttonhole with feather.

A lovely wrist corsage with an Ocean song rose, freesia, lisianthus, delphiniums and feathers.
