Alannah and Lance flew over from Canada for their wedding at Rhinefield House, luckily the english weather held up for the day - despite being a bank holiday ! Alannah choose purple as her colour scheme and a stunning look that was beautifully elegant with some gorgeous contemporary elements. And so here they are - Alannah's wedding flowers. 


Modern buttonhole of calla lily with lilac freesia and grass for the groom.


Alannah's stunning, modern wedding bouquet of ivory calla lilies with lilac freesia, purple lisianthus, loops of grass and a touch of sparkle


Contemporary buttonhole of rose with looped grass and a band of purple ribbon for the remaining men.


Corsage of ivory rose with hand made black wire mesh leaf and black diamante for the bride's mum.


For the groom's mum I made this wedding themed ivory and lilac corsage with rose, lisianthus  and grass.


Bouquet of ivory rose with purple lisianthus, lilac freesia and mixed foliages for the bridesmaids.


Simple but stunning fresh flower hair decorations of grouped purple lisianthus and single ivory rose, mounted on a wire for gripping into the hair. 


Ceremony table decorated with silver pots of purple lisianthus, ivory rose petals and tea lights, simple but stunning.


Cocktail vase arrangement of ivory roses, lilac freesias and purple lisianthus, I placed one either side of the ceremony table for the wedding ceremony.  


Rhinefield House, candelabra flowers in purple, lilac and white all ready for Alannah's wedding reception. I kept the foliages pale and fresh to show the purple lisianthus off to it's best and also so the designs really stood out against the deep wood panelling.


Silver and purple candelabra flowers using ivory roses, lilac freesia, purple lisianthus, silver eucalyptus and mixed fresh green foliages


The Great Hall at Rhinefield House decorated for Alannah's wedding breakfast in her gorgeous silver and purple theme. The height of these designs are just perfect for this venue. 

That just leaves me to say thank you so much Alannah for choosing me to design and create your wedding flowers for you, I loved working on this stunning scheme and very many congratulations on your marriage.

Hollie's Classic green and white wedding flowers-Rhinefield House

For her  late summer wedding at Rhinefield House, Hollie choose a beautiful pale green and white colour scheme and a look that manages to be both modern and classic and absolutely full of flower, I loved it. To create it I used roses,hydrangeas, freesias, stocks, and double lisianthus with a little foliage and hypericum berry. And so here they are - Hollie's wedding flowers.


Classic buttonhole of Akito rose and double leaf for the men.


Bouquet of rose,freesia,lisianthus,hypericum berry and a touch of myrtle for Hollie. The lovely pale green lisianthus mixed with the white freesias and the Akito rose give it a gorgeous fresh look 


Pale green and white wedding bouquet with hypericum berries


Modern corsage of double white lisianthus and grass for the mums.


Ceremony and top table flowers in greens and whites using roses, hydrangeas,stocks and lisianthus. The design is long and low and I placed it on the ceremony table for Hollie's wedding and after the ceremony moved it so it could enjoy pride of place on the top table. 


Wedding flowers at Rhinefield House. Tall table centres of roses,hydrangeas,stocks and lisianthus in lovely fresh greens and whites with the top table behind. The base of the design and the length of the top table is decorated with scattered green lisianthus flowers and white rose petals for a lovely decadent touch that's just a little different.


Tall table centres at Rhinefield House, I kept all foliage pale and fresh green so they really stand out against the dark wood panelling. I also used 2 of these designs either side of the ceremony table on low tables for the wedding itself.



Top table flowers in greens and whites.


The remaining length of the top table was decorated with these little vases ( lined with leaf) of white hydrangea and looped grass ( which later doubled as gifts )and scattered lisianthus flowers in pale green  with ivory rose petals. 

That just leaves me to say thank you so much Hollie and Richard for choosing me to design and create your wedding flowers for you, I really loved putting this look together for you - And very many congratulations on your marriage.

Hannah's Wedding Flowers, red roses-modern country style

For her wedding flowers, Hannah chose the stunningly beautiful Grand Prix rose and was anxious to give it a slight country look that would compliment her reception venue in the heart of the New Forest. And so here they are - Hannah's wedding flowers - red roses slightly country style


Buttonhole of Grand Prix rose and ivy leaves for the men.


Hannah's gorgeous wedding bouquet of Grand Prix roses, spray roses, ivy leaves with sprigs of myrtle


Bouquet of red Grand Prix roses, spray roses, ivy and myrtle


Corsages of double ivory rose with ivy leaves and myrtle for the mums.


The banqueting tables at the Bramble Hill Hotel, New Forest set out with mixed vases of red roses and foliage all ready for Hannah's wedding reception. The tables do not leave alot of room for flowers so the use of lots of small designs with a sprinkling of petals works really well


Table centre of Grand Prix roses, slight country style



Top table flowers - little vases of rose, berry and foliage, a sprinkling of fresh rose petals and a vase waiting for Hannah's bouquet.


Thank you bouquets for the mums, to carry on the country look I used these gorgeous oak leaves mixed with lilies, red roses, berries and deep red alstroemeria. 

That just leaves me to say, thank you so much Hannah for choosing me to design and create your wedding flowers for you, I hope you had a fabulous day and very many congratulations on your marriage.

Andrea's Cath Kidston /Vintage Tea Party inspired wedding in Pinks and Yellows, Norman Court School

For her wedding, Andrea chose a slightly unusual colour combination of yellows and pinks and a vintage tea party / Cath Kidston inspired look. I loved working on it and I loved all the gorgeous little touches Andrea put in to make it extra special, no detail was overlooked and it showed. I thought the end result was stunning but see what you think. And so here they are - Andrea's wedding flowers 


Buttonholes of Cezanne roses, the perfect combination of colours for Andrea's wedding in one flower.


Wrist corsage of pale pink lisianthus and bouvardia for the bride's mum.


Bridal bouquet vintage style in yellows and pinks. The beautiful buttermilk yellow roses are Artemis which combine perfectly with the bi coloured Cezanne and the ever popular Mimi Eden. A deep pink lisianthus, white freesia and a gorgeous ivory rose called Dolomiti complete the look. The flowers are soft and frilly and perfect for this look. 


Yellow, pink and white bridal bouquet vintage / Cath Kidston inspired.


Bridesmaids' bouquets of roses, stocks, freesias and lisianthus in buttermilk yellows, pinks and whites. All boxed and ready to go. The bridesmaids were in a strong pink so I used a higher proportion of the buttermilk stocks and roses and slightly less of the pinks so the bouquets looked amazing against the pink of the dresses.


Vintage style tall table centre in soft yellows and pinks using hydrangeas, roses and stocks. The reception was in the lovely Norman Court School in West Tytherley with it's tall ceilings, pillars and elegant stair case so these taller designs worked really well.


Vintage tea party and Cath Kidston  inspired wedding table, I loved these table name and menu cards and the little easel the menu sat on.


Top table flowers with candles, a lovely long and low design of hydrangeas, mixed roses and lisianthus in buttermilk yellows, ivory and mixed pinks. I decorated the remaining length of the table with scattered individual flowers from the hydrangeas and stocks, a gorgeous and more unusual alternative to rose petals. Tea lights completed it.


Wedding flowers at the Norman Court School in West Tytherley, the bride's view from her place at the top table.


Tall vintage inspired table centres in yellows and pinks.


I loved the vintage tea cups and saucers tied with the guests name tag, even the cutlery was vintage and hired in from the lovely ladies at The Tea Party in Southsea


Top table flowers with mantle flowers and candles behind. 

That just leaves me to say thank you so much Andrea for choosing me to design and create your wedding flowers for you, I really loved working on your gorgeous Cath Kidston / vintage tea party theme and with all those beautiful flowers. And very many congratulations on your marriage. 

Nikki's Classic Green, White and Pink Wedding Flowers, Norton Park Hotel, Sutton Scotney

For her wedding at the Norton Park Hotel, Nikki chose a beautifully classic look for her  wedding flowers in a gorgeous combination of pale pistachio green and ivory with a touch of pale pink. Pretty but elegant was the brief and so here they are, Nikki's wedding flowers.


A buttonhole of ivory rose with bouvardia and ivy leaves for the groom.


Bouquet in pale green, pink and white for Nikki using Avalanche and Sweet Avalanche roses, pale green lisianthus and bouvardia with variegated pittosporum. A beautifully classic look that manages to be very soft and romantic and yet elegant too. I loved it.


Classic bridal bouquet of ivory and pink roses, green lisianthus,bouvardia and foliage.


Co-ordinating bouquets in green,white and pink for Nikki's bridesmaids.


Classic pedestal design in green and white with a touch of pink for the ceremony at the Norton Park Hotel. The ceremony took place in the barn and I placed one of these designs either side of the ceremony table fro maximum impact. The effect was stunning.

Emma's green and white wedding flowers, Burley Manor

A very soft and pretty wedding in whites and greens, the look is both natural and modern too using gypsophila, roses and freesias with a touch of sparkle. 


Buttonhole of white rose, rosemary and gypsophila for the men.


Wedding bouquet of roses,freesias and gypsophila with rosemary, myrtle and diamante for our bride


Emma's wedding bouquet in whites and greens using avalanche roses, freesias, gypsophila,  a touch of fine foliage and diamante sprays to compliment the detail on her wedding gown.


Buttonholes of Akito rose with gypsophila and rosemary, boxed and ready to go.


Corsages of Akito rose with silver wire and crystal for the ladies and a buttonhole of lisianthus with rosemary and gypsophila for the children. Lisianthus are great flowers for this being smaller and lighter than your average rose but still blending in beautifully.


Chair backs of tied gypsophila for the wedding ceremony at the Burley Manor Hotel in the New Forest


The back row of the aisle decorated with tied designs of gypsophila with tulle on alternate chairs, all ready for Gary and Emma's wedding.



Modern tablecentres of gypsophila, rose and freesia with scattered leaves and table crystals for the wedding reception.



Fresh leaf place cards, a lovely finishing touch for Gary and Emma's natural wedding theme.


Fresh leaves and table crystals were also scattered along the length of the tables as a lovely and slightly more unusual finishing touch. Whilst this was a summer wedding the scattered leaves in autumnal colours look absolutely terrific for autumnal themed weddings.


For the top and ceremony table I created a beautiful long and low design of roses, freesias, lisianthus, gypsophila with rosemary and mixed foliages but unfortunately I could not get a photo, I finished the top table with these little mini designs which are proving extremely popular, scattered leaves and table crystals for a beautifully co-ordinated look. I have been promised some more photos and when they come in I will update this entry.

Meanwhile, that just leaves me to say thank you so much Gary and Emma for choosing me to design and create your wedding flowers for you, I loved working on this fresh and pretty scheme for you. Very many congratulations on your marriage and I hope you have a fabulous trip, it sounded amazing.
