Yellow roses, white freesia and blue agapanthus

These are the wedding flowers from Lynn and Daniels wedding on August bank holiday weekend.
Lynn wanted a traditional shower type bouquet but as she isn't very tall didn't want anything to large. We decided on a small teardrop with roses, freesia and agapanthus and feathery tree fern. This helped to keep the bouquet light and delicate in terms of both weight and visual impact. Lynn was concerned with the yellow roses and so I sent her images and names of several I had in mind and some bolder choices so she could pick the shade she wanted. She eventually chose 'Vanilla sky" which is a lovely pale yellow and tones well with the blue and white.
Lynn had two maids, they both carried a hand-tie posy of yellow freesia and white roses to compliment their blue gowns. The stems were bound with blue satin ribbon.
The groom wore a single white rose buttonhole.
The men of the bridal party each wore a single 'vanilla sky' rose buttonhole.
The two ladies each wore a white freesia corsage.

Dolce Vita Rose and freesias

Dolce Vita, a lovely rose, was the centre of Jen's wedding flowers at the beginning of June.
The bridesmaids dresses were a 3/4 length floaty style dress in blue, but Jen didn't want to have blue flowers as this would have made the overall effect quite cool for a summer wedding. By chance when she called in we had some gorgeous two tone, pink and white roses in that she loved. These were to take centre stage, flower wise.

The brides bouquet, a tear-drop shape, had Dolce Vita roses, white freesia and ruscus.
The three bridesmaids all carried a gorgeous hand-tie posy of Dolce Vita roses and ruscus, tied together with a pink satin bow.
The mums wore a simple corsage of a Dolce vita rose with white freesia flowers.
The groom and his men each wore a single white buttonhole.

White and Royal Blue Wedding

The second of the weekends weddings.
Zoey's mother-in-law (to be) has been a customer of ours for many years, and as she was getting married at St Peter-at-Gowts church, next to us, she naturally came to us for her wedding flowers.
The colour scheme was white and royal blue.
Zoey wanted a traditional brides bouquet but not too large, so we settled on a teardrop style. It is mainly white Akito roses and dark blue agapanthus. Royal blue hex pins add a slight sparkle when the light catches them.
Her two maids carried hand-tie posies of matching flowers to complement their dresses, both have royal blue ribbon around the stems pinned to hold with white pearl headed pins.
The two flower girls held a heart shaped silver wand with a single white akito rose, foliage and dark blue ribbon trails.
All members of the bridal party wore a single white rose buttonhole, with the exception of the Mother of the bride who wore a white corsage. (Unfortunately it was missed in the photos)

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.
The groom wore a single white crystal blush calla lily with ruscus and tree fern to match the bridal bouquet.
The rest of the men from the bridal party wore a single avalanche rose buttonhole with tree fern.

White Wedding Flowers


The second wedding from yesterday, Friday.

A beautiful teardrop bouquet in white freesia and small white roses. Pistachio foliage is added and as it's dark green it brings out the whiteness of the flowers.

The single bridesmaid had a hand-tie posy of the same flowers bound together with a white satin ribbon.

Buttonholes were also delivered along with ribbons and bows to decorate the bridal car.

Red and White Wedding flowers


Denise's red and white wedding from 10th April.
All males in the wedding party were provided a red rose buttonhole to compliment the colour scheme.
The ladies corsages also matched the bridal bouquet. Each had a single red rose with a couple of white freesia and foliage.
The flower girls carried a small hand-tie posy of red roses and white freesia finished off with an ivory satin ribbon around the stems.



Here is the brides teardrop bouquet. Red passion roses with white freesia and soft ruscus for foliage. This is a very popular design being fairly compact but traditional in shape. The flower combination also works extremely well with the freesias being scented and many Mother of the Brides having had them when they walked down the aisle.


The complimentary bridesmaids posy. Again keeping the theme going this is a popular design to go with the teardrop bouquet.



We also sent out some thank you hand-ties for the mums.
