Sarah and Nathan's Romantic Wedding
Sarah was a bride with a clear vision and knew how she wanted her wedding to look. This is great for us because it gives us a template to work with and to start to bring flowers together to create this look. Everyone is different and when designing wedding flowers this needs to be reflected in the style and variety of flowers used.
The beautiful gallery at Norwood has a high ceiling therefore short or tall arrangements work well. Sarah opted for the candelabra's has her centerpieces, you can see from the image below these look amazing in this room and really were Sarah.
The pedestal arrangements below needed to continue Sarah's style of a soft, romantic and elegant feel. These were placed in the bar area of Norwood so that they greeted the guests as they came for the wedding breakfast.
The cake was delicate and beautifully decorated so all that was need was a simple O'Hara rose with Freesia and Asparagus Fern.

We love the colours for this beautiful wedding, the rusts, oranges and peaches were just gorgeous.
We can't begin to say how beautiful this wedding was and we can't even begin to say how in love this couple was and are. We are just going to show you the photo's and let them speak for themselves. 2020 and 2021 has not been the best for weddings but seeing couples get married, even though it has mean't, in some cases heartache has been touching and made us sit back and realise the meaning of getting married again. This couple was one of those couples that put the meaning back into marriage.

Weddings this year have been different to say the least. 2020 will not be forgotten in a hurry, the wedding industry has adapted more than once this year to cope with the new restrictions that Covid-19 has brought to the country. A wedding take months to plan and sometimes years, we have heard may times over the past few months the words 'it's only a wedding' or 'it's only one day'. For some people this is not just a wedding, it's a day filled with emotion and happiness. It's a new start as man and wife and for families to come together. Some family members may never get another chance to see their loved ones get married. Louisa and Wilson were so lucky their wedding took place just before the new rules of only 15 people being able to attend a wedding. They had to move their wedding from the beginning of the year to September and the thought of having to move again was stressful, not just for Louisa and Wilson but also for their guests and suppliers.......but we did it!!!!! :) It was an amazing day for an amazing couple!!!!!
To compliant Claire's stunning dress we went for a shower bouquet in blush pinks, ivory and white flowers. We just adore this photo xxx
We love colour so when we were approached by Amy and David to create their flowers for their big day and Amy told us the colour scheme we couldn't wait to get started. After looking at Amy's dress, the bridesmaids dresses and David's suits we knew just what to create.
Where do we start? As soon as we met Jess and Joe we knew this wedding was going to contain romance, love, a church and a country house. Right from the start both Jess and Joe were involved in the design of their wedding flowers, they knew what they wanted and they knew the style and look they had in mind. Our job was to take these ideas and turn them into reality, we had to create romance with a soft feel and appearance with their flowers. To create this look we used soft flowers and foliage's that naturally flowed and wasn't hard in appearance, the next was the colours, they needed to be subtle, light and delicate.
When Molly and Elliott first came to see us we could tell they were meant for one another. Elliott would be cracking one line jokes and Molly would be rolling her eyes with a smile. They choose soft pinks with ivory and white flowers and beautiful David Austin roses with soft asparagus fern and Arena Lizzy. The candlelight added extra romance at their wedding breakfast and the beautiful mantle's were decorated with flowers and foliage's to add more romantic candlelight.
Each wedding is individual and takes on it's own form and with Diana and Martino's they wanted elegance, they wanted soft colours for their flowers to add romance to their beautiful marquee.
When we sit with our clients we always ask lots of questions, this is so important so that we get a feel for their theme and style of wedding. Two most important questions is - 1. Can we see your dress please? and 2. Where are you getting married. These 2 questions are the starting point for us so that we can start to build ideas and from there start to design their floral arrangements. This wedding shows this perfectly, once we discussed ideas with our bride and we knew the venue and we saw the dress we knew rustic was the way to go.
