Country Wedding Flowers - Summer Pastels

These pretty wedding flowers were for our lovely bride Robina who tied the knot at the stunning Repton School Chapel, with the reception held at Repton School . 
The brief was a pretty handpicked look in mostly whites and greens , but bringing in a few pretty pastels to soften , creams , a little bit of pale peach with an occasional blue scabiosa for the bridesmaids and centrepieces. Looks summery but still fresh and pretty . Thanks very much to Robina for sending us the lovely images of on the day , congratulations xx

Autumn Flowers

This time of year is so lovely for florists, there are so many interesting textures and materials to work with . Lovely berries, autumn leaves, wheat, autumn fruits in lots of lovely shades that we only associate with the autumn.
I have recently been sent these images by my dear friend Katie from Annabella Whispers Photography. Last autumn Katie asked if i would be able to make her an autumn flower crown for a photoshoot she was working on .  A year later and look how lovely it still is, now all nicely dried out to save forever ..


And here it is in its original form last autumn .....
I think this is a lovely natural headdress for a bride having an autumn wedding .
