Hayley's bridesmaid wore long emerald green dresses and so we decided to keep all the flowers ivory with added foliage for the brides bouquet. Hayley loved this hand-tied design of all ivory roses with ruscus leaves between the flowers and folded aspidistra leaves around the outside. Diamante were added to half the roses for added sparkle. The stems were bound with emerald satin ribbon with a silver thin ribbon overlay.
The three adult bridesmaids each carried a simple bouquet of 3 ivory roses with the stems bound the same as the brides.
The groom wore a double rose buttonhole with the rest of the men wearing a single.
The ladies wore an ivory corsage of an ivory rose, rolled rose petals and ivory alstroemeria.

The Lincoln Golf Centre
Kayleigh's wedding reception was held at The Lincoln Golf Centre at Thorpe-on-the-Hill.
The top table was a long and low design of whites and creams, including lilies, roses, germini,carnations and stallion chysants.
Top table design in situ.
The table centres were small fish bowls with a plain ivory candle standing on a bed of crushed 'ice'. Kayleigh had wanted to make these herself but on being given a quote (for hiring of the vases and ice) it was as cheap to leave it to us. We deliver on the morning of the wedding and set them on the tables, giving the bride more time to get ready.
The top table.
The Lincoln suite all ready to greet the bride and groom.

Please do ask your venue on the suitability of using candles before you decide you definitely want them. Some venues will not allow them to be lit.

The bride wanted a simple hand-tie to include roses and fell in love with this design. White roses with lots of alchemilla mollis filling out the bouquet with a collar of salal leaves. The stems were wrapped in gold ribbon to match the bridesmaids dresses.
The two bridesmaids carried a similar but smaller design.
The three flower girls each carried a gold star wand with a single white rose and sprig of alchemilla mollis and a gold bow.
The men each wore a single white rose buttonhole with alchemilla mollis to match the brides bouquet.

Lisianthus wedding
The table centres Gemma chose were a small fishbowl with 3 purple edged carnations sitting on glass 'ice' with bear grass swirls. She had decided to make her own centrepieces but on us giving a quote she realised it was better to leave it to us.
We also provided all the flowers for the church ladies so everything matched.
Just so you know:
Lisianthus and Eustoma are the same flower, some call it one, some the other.

St Helen's Church at Saxby
Joanne and Graham were married at St Helen's at Saxby. A lovely, unusual church built as a parish church and mausoleum.
The two alcoves, one either side of the main door, were decorated with a fishbowl.
The windowsills were also decorated with a fishbowl each. These contained a delphinium, eustoma, sweetpeas, eryngium, freesia, roses, eucalyptus and bear grass. They were designed as a tall tied arrangement. These were also doubling up as table centres for the reception at The White Hart hotel, so although height was required I couldn't fill them out too much otherwise guests would be unable to see each other.
As the couple had 8 tables and only 6 were needed in church, (4 windows, 2 alcoves) we used the other two bowls either side the Altar area.

The Altar arrangement, which was doubling up as the top table arrangement.

Country style wedding
The wedding flowers of Joanne and Graham from July.
This was a country style wedding in ivory and shades of purple.
Joanne's bouquet was a hand-tied design which trailed at the front. The flowers agreed on were purple eustoma, freesia, September and Gletzer roses with various foliage.
Two of the bridesmaids carried a similar hand-tied bouquet but in a posy shape.
The third bridesmaid wore a matching wrist corsage of a Gletzer rose with purple eustoma and sweet peas on an ivory pearl wristband.
For the hair I provide two combs of eustoma, September and rolled rose petals with fountain grass. Also for the bride a handful of individually wired September flowers for the hairdresser to add to the hairstyle.
The groom's buttonhole was a single Gletzer rose with purple eustoma flowers and buds and asparagus fern and eucalyptus leaves.
The grooms-men wore a single rose buttonhole with asparagus fern.
The ladies wore an ivory corsage of eustoma and rolled rose petals with asparagus fern, fountain grass and eucalyptus leaves.

The Stone Arms Pub, Skellingthorpe
Katerina's wedding reception was held at The Stone Arms pub in Skellingthorpe.
The gerbera theme was continued with fish bowls of mixed germinis and bear grass.
Colourful gerbera wedding
When Katerina first came to see me she knew exactly what flowers she wanted. She brought a picture of a gerbera bouquet in mixed colours and asked if I could reproduce it. Included are yellow, burgundy, red, pink and orange gerberas with palm leaves as a collar.
It was to be a colourful wedding with orange as the main colour.
The two flower girls each had a wrist corsage of an orange germini with rolled orange rose petals and ruscus and bear grass. The smaller one was attached to an ivory organza ribbon as the bracelets are just too large for little wrists.
The older flower girls corsage was attached to an ivory pearl bracelet.
They each carried a small basket decorated with burgundy satin ribbon and bows, filled with rose petals in red, orange and yellow. The petals are placed in a bag for ease of delivery.
Three ladies buttonholes of a burgundy germini with ruscus leaves and bear grass loops.
All the men in the bridal party wore a gorgeous orange germini buttonhole.
