Maria and Alan

Flowers are important....

For Maria, the flowers and colours of her wedding were a really important part of her day.... Purple, Lilac and a hint of Pink designed in an almost informal fashion but not too loose.

Together, in one of our wedding consultations, we sat and discussed various flower types and colours and the designs below were what we came up with.  Now, forgive me as I did not get as many pictures as I would have liked, which is frustrating but these do give you a flavour of what Maria had.

I think all the memories should still be fresh.... they are waking up today as Mr and Mrs...

Congratulations and as always thanks for choosing About Flowers to be part of your big day.

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

The Thailand bride in Widnes who loved Purple Orchids

When Cholloda and Craig came to me only six weeks ago, they said Deep Purple and Orchids.  They were happy for me to advise on the rest and after a couple of chats this is what we came up with.  They wanted to bring in some oriental influence for their Widnes Wedding.

In the Bridge Suite in The Stobbart Stadium, Widnes, Cholloda and Craig held their wedding reception.  We hope you liked your bridal flowers and your venue decoration.....

The Bridal Bouquet, designed with Purple Dendrobian Orchids, Avalanche Roses and tropical foliage.

The Table Centre, filled with Purple Dendrobrian, Fatsia, and Aspidistra..... lovely Thai influence.

The Bridge Suite, Stobbart Stadium Widnes.  It really does scrub up well....  and the staff, we have to say are amongst some of the nicest and most professional we deal with..

Thanks for choosing us guys, we hope we did you pride.  Congratulations and all the best...
