The Blackpool Themed Wedding in Haydock

When Katie came to see me and told me she had a blackpool theme, I thought oh my god, how can we do that with flowers.  But then, when she told me her colours, I have never been so excited. 

Katie described the the love story behind the blackpool theme as "a bit embarrasing", I call it romance encaptulated..... a true fairytale, the perfect idea.

Mixing up certain colour pallets really can provide you with such a wonderful impact on your wedding day.

And, I am not the only one who liked it, Katie's wedding is going to be featured in a well known wedding magazine....  watch this space!

GREEN - PURPLE - BROWN - PINK

This is what we came up with......  Congratulations Katie and thanks for letting us be part of this journey with you.

A shower bouquet with a mixture of Amnesia Roses, Lisisanthus and Spray Roses.

I am sure you all had fun, how could you not.

Purple and Pink flowers for Lisa and Paul

Lisa and Paul, a couple from Widnes chose us to do their wedding stationery, wedding flowers and venue decoration.  Judging by their comment on our facebook page, I think they were pretty happy with what they did. 

"Hi Paula, Just wanted to leave you and all your staff a message to say thank you so much for all that you did for our wedding! The room looked amazing, the flowers were perfect, the invites, the post box, the chair covers! wow the list goes on. It all came together so well and was just fantastic! You really did help to make our day perfect. Thank you so much Love Lisa and Paul xxxx"

Anyway, we will let their cerise and purple flowers speak for themselves....  the pictures were took in a light that does not show their colour perfect, but you get the general idea dont you!!

The bridal bouquet consisted of cerise roses, purple gladiolus, pink bouvardia and purple lisianthus.  Not to mention a splash of purple and cerise pink dendrobian orchids.

Similar flowers were used throughout the designs...

Three of the bridesmaids had pink....

Three of the bridesmaids had purple....

The groom had a bit of both.

Colours were mixed in the venue decoration and we think it had great impact.

Lisa and Paul chose two different types of table centre.  They had six of these gerbera designs with black birch and skeleton leaves.

And six of these fishbowls with cerise gerbera floating in them.

And, to top it off.... they had a purple and pink top table design that was used in their civil room first and then put on their top table.  We always encourage dual use of flowers..

Thanks for choosing us guys, we appreciate it so much. 

Lots of love Paula xxx

My Lovely Lillian and Norman.....

If you ever have the pleasure to meet this couple you would fall in love with them immediately.... and I really mean that.  They found each other later in life and I swear you can tell they are so madly in love, it's untrue!!

Lillian and Norman....  what a couple.  Every time they came into the shop I got a lovely kiss goodbye from her and a really warm smile from him.  I was really priviledged to do their wedding and that comes from the bottom of my heart.

Silly old me actually forgot my camera for the silk bouquets we did (waiting for them to come in and give me pics though).

But we did get some lovely shots from The Birchfield Club in Widnes and I just thought I would share them for any future brides.  Spoke to Tony as well and if the smell of the food from the kitchen was anything to go by, the food was certainly set to please a few people.

Lillian and Norman.... love ya!!

Hope you had a lovely day and hope you have a lovely life together.  You truly deserve it. :)

The Top Table consisted of three posy designs with ivory and purple flowers.

Wedding Flowers and The Hillcrest Hotel, Widnes

Clare and Alan put 100% into organising their wedding.   From their chair covers to table centres to table swagging and bridal bouquets, they trusted us with it all.  Clare chose an aubergine colour that we complimented with white calla lily, purple lisianthus, freesia and orchids.

Check out the flower decoration in The Hillcrest Hotel, Widnes.  We think we did ok... do you?

A selection of purple lisianthus, white freesia, white avalanche and orchids.

And the bridal bouquet with all of the flowers chosen.

An adult wand for the bridesmaids to compliment the brides bouquet.

The centrepiece, one of our many vases we have for hire, the large martini glass with a fresh floral design inside.



The Bride and Groom also made some other great choices, these ice sculptures were fab!!

The top table was swagged with organza and roses.



And we wouldn't want to leave the cake table out.  We decorated both the flower stand and table to match the other designs.

Yum Yum....Vanda Orchids

Rebecca chose some beautiful orchids for her bouquet.... a very hot day meant that I designed this piece at the last minute and gave it plenty of loving care.

Purple Vanda Orchids, White Dendrobian Orchids and White Avlanche Roses form this shower bouquet.  The colour from the Vanda really enhanced this bouquet.



Handtied bouquet with Purple Lisianthus, White Avalanche Roses and Lilac Freesia.  Edged in an ivy structure.

Rebecca chose a "Dendrobian Whirl" for her centrepieces.  

Pink Gerbera and Purple Freesia



Well Eve chose some really bright and outgoing colours to go together and they really suited her personality as she is such a bubbly person.  I think it is important that a wedding scheme should reflect a bride’s personality, dont you??  Actually, I always remember every time Eve came in for her consults, she wore these colours… I just love that!!
