Argos



This weeks arrangement on Argos jewelery counter.

An 8" clear bowl with clear glass stones in the base. A pretty handtie posy of white Alstroemeria and wax flower with a collar of fatsia leaves. The wax flower has a pretty, light scent that will be noticed but not overpowering. Ideal for a table centre.

Pride of Lincoln


The Pride of Lincoln was the setting for Lyndsey's wedding reception.
Unfortunately the tables were not quite ready when we arrived but it gives an idea of the set up.
A long and low type arrangement was the top table arrangement. Again the theme being pink gerberas. Wax flower, broom and bear grass added movement to a base of mixed foliage.
The guest tables were small clear bowls with clear sones in the base. 3 germini swirled inside along with bear grass strands and a butterfly was attached at the top.








St Peter at Gowts Church






St Peter-at-Gowts Church.

A wonderful church to decorate with plenty of room to display pedestals. Only drawback is they have to be large otherwise you won't see them at the altar from the back.

They consisted mainly of pink gerberas, with pink broom, carnations and misumata branches.

We displayed one pedestal in the porchway for impact when guests arrived and one at the front of the church on the grooms side.
As the budget was getting tight it was agreed that the two front and two back pews had a simple arrangement of 3 pink gerberas and wax flower and the rest had bows alternating down the aisle.
A debate had gone on as to whether we and the bride would be allowed to have flowers in church as it was still in Lent, but the Vicar on this occassion agreed as long as they were moved immediately afterwards. All arrangements were moved down to The Pride of Lincoln for the reception.
