Rebecca's Renewal of Vows and Wooden Anniversary Flowers, Jolly Sailor, Hamble

Yes, I do flowers for parties and events other than weddings and here is a lovely little one you might like to see.
Rebecca called me last week to see if I could help with some flowers for her Renewal of Vows ceremony and reception at the Jolly Sailor in Hamble. It was their wooden wedding anniversary too so could I incorporate an element to reflect that, also she would like to give the flowers to guests afterwards so could I do a design that would allow that.  Time was short- very short in fact - so I was thrilled to find these little wooden containers which also suited the natural, country look flowers Rebecca likes too. 


Rustic table flowers of double purple lisianthus, lilac freesias, spirea and rosemary.  
Now for anyone that doesn't know it, the Jolly Sailor is a lovely little pub sitting on the banks of the River Hamble perfectly suited to a natural and nautical theme. The little wooden chests were perfect for it. 


Purple table flowers in a natural, country style that also suited the nautical setting of the pub.

The tables were arranged in a long length so the designs are dotted along the length. 


The ceremony table set out with the flowers and a couple of gorgeous shells. It looked really  lovely which is more than can be said for my photo but hopefully it's enough for you to get the idea. 

That just leaves me to say thank you so much Rebecca for asking me to create the flowers for your  special day, I really enjoyed putting this look together for you. I hope you had a really fabulous day.

Becky's Country Style Wedding Flowers in Purples and Lilacs

Becky called me a little earlier in the year when her original florist let her down to see if I could help with her June wedding. She was looking for a lovely, natural, country look  using a real mix of flowers and foliages in the ever popular purple - lilac colours. Such a lovely lady and such a gorgeous scheme how could I refuse and so here they are - Becky's wedding flowers.

Becky's wedding bouquet of lilac rose, purple stocks, purple lisianthus, lilac freesia, lavender, eucalyptus and a touch of pink gypsophila. A gorgeous mix of scented flowers and foliages, perfect for the relaxed, country look, again - I was sorry to see it go.

These lovely little posies were for the flower girls. 


A slightly larger but still perfectly co-ordinating posy for the slightly older girl.

Bird cage table centre with country style flowers in purples and lilacs for the marquee reception. Becky scattered the table with the petals and the cages were used in a mixed scheme with other tables being decorated with pots of lavender.




Bird cage table centre design in purples and lilacs. To create it we used lilac roses, purple lisianthus with pink gypsophila and mixed foliages including rosemary for that lovely country style look. Flowers and foliages overspill the cage just as they should for this style. 

I hope you like them. 

That just leaves me to say, thank you so much your call Becky, I really loved making up these designs for you - and very many congratulations on your marriage.
