Christmas wedding

And finally our last wedding of 2011 was Michelle's, who organised it all in about 6 weeks. Keeping it all local by getting married in the village church and the reception in the village pub just after Christmas, meant it was a very relaxed day. The colour scheme was in keeping with the time of year, red and white with foliage and berries. The brides bouquet was red and white roses, hypericum berries and tree fern and salal foliage. The stems were wrapped in a large leaf with thin ivory ribbon criss crossing around it.The bridesmaid carried a similar design with just white roses.
We also provided buttonholes for the wedding party and a top table design for the reception.

Ivory, red and orange wedding flowers

These are Polly and Chris' flowers from their wedding back in November. The bridal bouquets were to be kept neutral with a hint of autumn.

Polly's hand-tied bouquet included ivory roses with dark red hypericum berries with bupleurum and salal leaves. The stems were part bound with ivory satin ribbon.
The two bridesmaids both carried a hand-tied bouquet of ivory roses, bupleurum and salal leaves.
The flower girl carried a miniature version.
The grooms buttonhole matched his brides flowers, being a single ivory rose with a few hypericum berries, bupleurum and salal leaves.
The mums each wore a rose and freesia corsage.
The rest of the bridal party were given a single ivory rose buttonhole to wear.
The table centres were a lovely vibrant mix of seasonal flowers in autumnal colours. They were arranged in a glass cylinder, available to hire, and included orange gerberas, red hypericum berries, carnations, ranunculus, deep red English chrysants, bupleurum and cotinus foliage.
Polly had asked for two of these for the top table, one at either end.

The reception was held at The Dovecote, near Swinderby.

This is the marquee set up and ready for the arrival of the bride and groom.
Polly and Chris were kind enough to send the following a week or so after their wedding.

Valentines Dinner

A Valentines Dinner.

The Right Worshipful The Mayor of Lincoln, Civic dinner.

We were asked to provide table centres on a Valentines theme for the above function on 12 February 2010 at the Chapter House, Lincoln Cathedral.

As is getting popular the 'Top Table' was a round table and this was designed to be slightly different from the 8 guest tables.

We used clear glass cubes, with a black tie leaf to hide the foam, as the base. Small red roses, hypericum, leucadendron, red tulips and pitto foliage made up the displays with black feathers and red midelino sticks to finish.

The small displays that were placed around the venue to add colour to the bare stone consisted of similar flowers and had a covering of red satin material around the base.

We also provided white cymbidium orchid buttonholes for all the ladies.

Small modern arrangement

A small but modern arrangement we delivered for a get well present.

Alstromeria gives some height to the display while gerberas, carnations and hypericum fill out the base. All arranged in a complimentary pink pot. Cordyline foliage and pink pins add a modern twist.
