Are you all white?

Well, what can I say.... it's been a while. I have really let my blog down lately but I am back now and will endeavour to catch up with a lot of the wedding work we have done since the last blog.

Sometimes the flowers just take over.....

I thought I would sort the last few months out in colour order, otherwise I would never get them all on.  

So, nice whites and ivories to start with...


Handtied bouquet with Avalanche Roses, Spray Roses, Freesia and Gypsophelia.


Matching wand for the flowergirl.....
 

Shower bouquet with Calla Lillies, Avalanche roses, and ivory flowers with pearl detail..


Handited bouquet of Avlanche Roses with spray roses and full of diamante and glitter, this bouquet was delicious to look at in real life.


Bridesmaid bouquet of Avalanche Roses with foliage and gypsophelia.

Well I hope you found some inspiration from these bouquets, more colours to follow but for now....

Take Care

The lovely bride Julie

How it all happened.....

Julie and her mum wandered into our shop one day, right in the middle of two bridal consultations.  We started chatting and we had one of the quickest consultations I have ever done in my life.. 


And after a second (proper) consultation, we had sorted the bridal bouquet and matching bridesmaid wand, grooms buttonhole and matching groomsmen and all the table centres and top table designs.  Julie also had a church full of flowers which unfortunately we did not manage to snap a good picture of...

Anyway, onto the designs.

Julie had a bridal bouquet of ivory roses with burgandy spray roses... wrapped in ivory satin ribbon.


and a close up of the actual flowers..... that's what it is all about for us.



To match Julie's bouquet, but not take over it, we did an adult wand with long stems and a smaller head.  The same flowers were used. 


The red rose buttonhole...


and the ivory buttonhole for the groomsmen...


And for the Mum, a corsage with spray roses and diamante.


And for the tables Julie chose our martini glasses with Avalanche roses and a splash of burgandy spray carnation.



Julie chose, from our wide range of scatters, Burgandy silk petals and clear diamantes.

Julie and Mathew, all the very best for the future.  Thank you so much for letting us be part of your day and let all your problems be little ones..... ;)

Julie and Natasha

For Julie and Natasha, they wanted Purple...

Nothing to big, just some nice roses to compliment her dress and some table centres to make the room look nice.  Unfortunately, we could not get a picture of the final room as they had their civil ceremony in the same room... but you can get an idea for the bridal designs..

Natasha's adult wand that had Ocean Song Lilac Roses, Purple Veronica and Purple Lisianthus and was wrapped with a deep purple satin ribbon.


For the bridesmaids, an Avalanche Rose Adult Wand, with Purple Lisianthus and Purple Veronica.


Natasha's buttonhole (sorry about the really naff picture)


And, the chair covers that we did for their civil room.

 
We hope you have a long and happy life together and thanks very much for choosing us to do your flowers for your big day.... lots of love Paula xx

The wedding at Chester Zoo..

Joanna and Paul got married at Chester Zoo, and to compliment her dress, Joanna wanted a Red Rose shower bouquet.  Here is what we made her.


Grand Prix Roses with Burgandy Spray Roses, Ivory Spray Roses and Veronica.




And for the bridesmaids, an adult wand with Avalanche Roses and Burgandy Spray Roses.  The stems decorated with a sheer Burgandy ribbon and bow.


And, for the groom, a Grand Prix Rose complimented with Orchids and Spray Roses.

Joanna, it was lovely to deal with you, you have such a quirky character.  Hope you both happy forever... lots of love Paula x


Your're all heart....

This wedding had a totally romantic feel to it, and the bridal bouquet set the tone in the shape of a heart.  The bride had a really good idea of what she wanted and with a couple of tweeks here and there, this is what we came up with.

I was told she was delighted with it when she received it.  Hope the day was as truly romantic. as this design.


A display of the chosen flowers.  Dolimitri Roses, with Lisianthus, Spray Roses and Gypsophelia.



And here is the design in full, edged with a diamante and beaded collar.


An adult wand for the bridesmaids complimented the theme..



And, I just bet that the bridesmaid looked cute carrying this heart shaped design with a spray of fresh blooms inside.

And out of all the florists, she chose us.  I hope our designs helped to make Laura's day extra special.

With lots of flowerfilled love Paula xx

White Rose Wedding

Helena and Mark just look gorgeous in these pictures don’t you think? 
We really want to say a big thanks to Helena as she has been so public about thanking us that it really makes us feel proud.  Our business is reliant on people telling others about us so from the whole team Helena, thanks…. love ya!!
Helena had a handtied bouquet of White Avalanche Roses edged with Ivy.


Helena's bridesmaids had a design that we created, the adult wand.  These particular wands are made with Avalanche Roses and are a great match to the bridal bouquet.
