Country style wedding

The wedding flowers of Joanne and Graham from July.
This was a country style wedding in ivory and shades of purple.
Joanne's bouquet was a hand-tied design which trailed at the front. The flowers agreed on were purple eustoma, freesia, September and Gletzer roses with various foliage.
Two of the bridesmaids carried a similar hand-tied bouquet but in a posy shape.
The third bridesmaid wore a matching wrist corsage of a Gletzer rose with purple eustoma and sweet peas on an ivory pearl wristband.
For the hair I provide two combs of eustoma, September and rolled rose petals with fountain grass. Also for the bride a handful of individually wired September flowers for the hairdresser to add to the hairstyle.
The groom's buttonhole was a single Gletzer rose with purple eustoma flowers and buds and asparagus fern and eucalyptus leaves.
The grooms-men wore a single rose buttonhole with asparagus fern.
The ladies wore an ivory corsage of eustoma and rolled rose petals with asparagus fern, fountain grass and eucalyptus leaves.

White rose and pink veronica wedding flowers



The flowers from Maria and Andy's wedding on September 30th 2010.
The colour scheme was white and dusky pink and simple non fussy bouquets were specified. Maria carried a hand-tied design of small akito roses and pink veronica with fountain grass through the flowers. A collar of salal leaves gave the design definition. The stems were bound with satin ribbon.
The 4 bridesmaids carried a smaller version of the brides design.
The wedding party, 15 of them, all wore matching buttonholes of a single akito rose, a stem of pink veronica with a sprig of fountain grass finished off with a galax leaf.

Tea-pot Table Arrangements



















Here we have quirky teapots brought in by a customer to see if we could utilise them in flower arrangements. They were to be used as table centres for a family party at Washingborough Hall Hotel.

After a discussion with the customer it was decided to keep in with the brown and green colours of most of the tea pots and use orange roses, orange celosia and various foliage, fountain grass and rosemary, and to add some colour blue iris and statice.

If you have any odd or quirky containers you would like us to use, be it a single item for a gift or multiples for table settings, please get in touch and where possible bring them in to the shop and we will give you a quote.
