Hypnose Rose Country Bouquets

Here are a few pictures of one set of wedding bouquets from last week.
A lovely informal mix of countrystyle flowers and foliages, perfect for the rustic barn setting of the wedding.
We used hypnose roses within these bouquets, which are the browny/pink shade roses. i have heard on the grapevine that these roses may be phased out later this year, as the grower doesnt want to produce them anymore. Really hope that this isnt true Mr Hypnose rose grower!

Wedding Flowers for Vintage and Cake

A few weeks ago another one of my lovely friends got married. Some of you may already know Julie who runs her cake and china hire business Vintage and Cake ( she may even have provided you with your wedding cake!)... well it was Julies turn to be the bride and what an amazing wedding it was.
Every little detail had been thought of, and the whole day was so personal to them, at the vows we all were blubbering !
Anyway i thought i woud share with you all of the lovely little details that made this wedding special


The beautiful bride, carrying a lovely bouquet that we made ,a mixture of 'meadow' style flowers...

In Julies bouquet, we used lots of small pretty informal flowers, such as lily of the valley, lavender, stocks, scabiosa, and combining them with beautiful garden roses. As a finishing detail we bound it with string to maintain the more rustic and informal feel of the wedding theme

Pretty basket that we filled with flowers for the entrance doorway...

Lovely wristcorsages, with lace for the bridesmaids....

The mens buttonholes were an informal cluster of astrantia and lavender which we bound with string for a more rustic feel...

Pretty marquee....

Lots of lovely bottles that Julie and Ben had collected , that we then filled with a mixture of informal flowers for the centrepieces...

Lots of lovely jamjars, tied with string were the finishing touch around the venue, including using as chair ends for the cermony.

Thankyou to Julie and Ben for asking us to be part of your wedding, both as a guest and florist -it was a fantastic day xx

Rustic Weddings

I thought i would show these images of a recent wedding that we did. More and more couples are looking for a rustic, infomal feel to their wedding flowers which we personally love.

Trailing bouquets dont have to be fixed, rigid, and dated - they can be flowing, handpicked, and also handtied like the one above, and who wants a wired traditional buttonhole anymore? Not us! we love these little tied clusters

Thanks to our lovely clients Gemma and Andy for the images & congratulations xx

A quick turnaround.....

The story.... bride lives in australia, bride is not returning home until the week of the wedding, florist has one week to interpret theme & select dream wedding flowers.

The brief.... flowers to compliment bridesmaids dress colour of russett (a lovely but tricky colour pinky/coral/brown), flowers must appear rustic, yellow to be brought into centrepieces to tie in with places names and other table decoration.

Hope you liked what we came up with
