Pink Calla Lily Brides Bouquet

The wedding flowers of Kelly from October 9th.

Kelly chose a pretty pink calla lily on mass for her bridal bouquet. With a few bear grass loops threaded with beads to catch the light and bound together with matching pink satin ribbon.
Kelly's bridesmaid carried an overarm bouquet with matching pink calla lilies, bear grass and beads.
One of two wine glass displays for either end of the top table. Pink oriental lilies, white roses and freesia.

We also created a long and low display for the middle of the top table and 5 black lily vases with a stem of pink lily in each with bear grass. Unfortunately we were hoping to take photos at The Pride of Lincoln but they hadn't set the tables when we arrived.
The grooms calla lily buttonhole. Created to match the brides bouquet, it incorporated bear grass loops and beads, with ruscus leaves.
The ladies of the bridal party wore single white rose buttonholes with a small sprig of gyp.

The men wore a single white rose buttonhole each.

De Vere Belton Woods Hotel

Nicola's wedding reception was held in the Hawthorn Suite at De Vere Belton Woods Hotel. A lovely light room with large windows overlooking the golf course.

The top table is a huge oval table and as such needs a large display to fill the space. Glacier roses, white eustoma, dahlias, alstroemaria, bouvardia, carnations and button chrysants were used with palm and aspidistra leaves and other foliage.
As it is such a large table we decided it could take a wine glass arrangement at either end in matching flowers. These were used as thank you's after the speeches.

Nicola liked the fish bowl arrangements for her guest tables. These had three glacier roses floating on water each having a diamante pin in the centre. Bear grass was swirled around the inside of the bowls.
We placed each bowl on a round mirror enabling the light to be reflected back through the glass.

Washingborough Hall

Shelley's minimalist theme continued in the venue arrangements. Originally going to make these herself it was decided that on reflection it would be easier and less stressful for me to do them. On receiving a quote Shelley was surprised to find there wasn't much difference in the price. I must point out all the glassware was hired.

Fish bowls with 3 calla lilies and bear grass with a few glass rocks in the base were the table centres.
For the registrars table an unusual piece was chosen. A large wine goblet with white akito roses, lilies,blue agapanthus and royal blue feathers. Bear grass loops tie in with the fish bowls.

We hire out our bay trees dressed in your wedding colours. As it was such a lovely sunny day we positioned them on the steps to greet the bride on her arrival.
The glorious gardens at Washingbough Hall.

A gorgeous venue throughout with friendly owners and staff.

This is probably our most popular venue this year. Watch out for more photos coming soon.

Argos

After the Bank Holiday weekend we decided to replace our display at Argos, but it seems we needn't have done as it was still looking OK. We did leave this one though, so currently there are 2 small displays on the jewelery counter from us.

This is another stunning yet simple display in an oversized wine glass. Pretty pink dewdrops form the base and a single sweet avalanche rose is placed on top. A diamante pin is added to the rose for some sparkle, and a pale pink butterfly and bow are added to the stem.

This could be used on small tables as a centre piece, added to a top table at either end or for your cake table. The possibilities are endless.

Gorse Lodge

A wonderfully large marquee at Gorse Lodge near Newark, which we organised flowers for Ruth and Nicks wedding.

We arranged stargazer lilies in tall vases for the tables, a top table centre piece and 2 smaller arrangements for the ends.
