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.

Champagne roses and pearl wedding

Natalie's wedding flowers from 24th September.

Themed on champagne roses and pearls to match in with her dress, Natalie carried a hand-tie of talea roses with bear grass loops and salal edging. The stems were bound with cream satin ribbon.
The bridesmaids carried an overarm bouquet of 5 and 3 roses respectively. Pearls threaded onto the bear grass tie in with the brides bouquet.

The grooms buttonhole is a single talea rose with ruscus foliage and bear grass loops with pearls.
The ladies wore a similar design to the groom.
The rest of the men wore a single rose and foliage.

Ivory rose wedding

Nikki's wedding from Saturday.

This was a church wedding and fortunately for the bride and groom it was being held on the open weekend for churches in their area and as such would be decorated with flowers anyway. So all left for me to arrange was the bridal flowers and buttonholes.
Nikki brought in a picture of a bouquet she wanted me to re-create. We chose the gorgeous Maroussia rose as it is large headed and scented. These together with gyp, tree fern and salal tips create a stunning classic bouquet. The stems are entirely bound together with an aspidistra leaf and thin ivory satin ribbon was then wound around this to add detail and interest to the handle.
Her bridesmaid had a similar design but with less roses to make it smaller.
The groom wore a maroussia rose buttonhole with gyp, salal and tree fern.
The men wore a single maroussia rose buttonhole with tree fern and the ladies had similar but with a sprig of gyp.

Thank you bouquets were provided for the reception speeches.

Sam and Jonny's wedding at Branston Hall on 21 August 2009.

The brides bouquet was a simple hand-tie of maroussia roses, alchemilla mollis, sweet william 'green trick' and salal leaves. This was finished off with ivory ribbon around the stems and pinned. The bridesmaids was a smaller version.

For the registrars table we arranged ivory lilies, gerberas, maroussia roses, and spray carnations along with alchemilla mollis, salal, and bupleurum to keep the colour theme of ivory and lime green going.

The tables arrangements at Branston Hall were, per table, a single stem of ivory lily and bear grass in a vase supplied by Sam finished off with apple green sisal to support the stem.

The pictures taken of the reception tables are before Branston Hall had finished setting up and are taken in the bar area as the main part of the Churchill suite was set up for the ceremony.
