Alliums and Amethyst.

On Saturday 18th of June was the Weding of Caroline and Mark at the beautiful Bradbourne House. The colour scheme was a lovely soft mink/amethyst colour. Caroline wanted sleek and elegant flowers which would match up to the colour and reflect the look of her dress and venue.





Caroline wore a slim line ivory dress with crystal details and ruffled skirt. She held a stunning hand tied bouquet of calla lilies and roses softened with eucalyptus and bear grass. I had studded the grass with crystals to match everything up. The end result was gorgeous.



The Bridesmaids wore satin amethyst gowns and held hand tied bouquets of roses, and alliums- a favourite flower of Caroline's and only in season for a few weeks...they were just the perfect colour.


The ceremony took place in the splendid ballroom. Caroline was lead down the aisle by her son, who looked so proud!



Pefect colour match!




The cake was stunning, I loved the simple design but was so pretty.




I swagged the front porch with amethyst coloured chiffon to welcome the guests, and just inside the house I lined a simple display of alliums along the mantlepiece.




The breakfast was also in the ballroom and the tables were set after the ceremony. I had arranged simple, yet effective domes of flowers, including scented stocks, calla lilies, roses, alliums and hydrangeas.






The domes were sparkled up with crystal droplets hanging from the foliages, which glistened against the glass. This picture shows how well the colours all worked together, the linen and chair sashes were a perfect match.







The ceremony and top table had a bowl arrangement of flowers from the theme which smelt lovely from the stocks.



Congratulations to you both, you looked so amazing! Best wishes to you as Mr and Mrs. x



"Hi Nicola, I just wanted to say a big thank you for the wonderful job you did with the flowers. They were beautiful and I adored my bouquet. Thanks once again Caroline xx"

Midnight Blue with Wild Ivy

Friday 30th July, I had the pleasure of arranging the bridal flowers for Jo Everett.
Jo wanted a wild garden look for her bouquet, with white flowers whilst incorporating the beautiful midnight blue that her bridesmaids were wearing.


I used a combination of white garden flowers including lizzy, roses, and freesia. Jo wanted calla lilies as this was a favourite of hers, but somehow it really worked in well with the garden flowers. Running through all of these was the stunning blue delphinium called "ocean angel" it was almost electric and looked superb.

The ivy theme that Jo wanted run through all of the bouquets and I looped it loosely around the edge of the posy for a wild look.

The Bridesmaids wore stunning dresses in deep blue and they held white posies of wild flowers and foliage.

I used deep blue thistles for depth of colour which stood out beautifully. The Groom had a matching button hole of white rose and blue delph.


The flower Girls held a cute posy version of the bridesmaids flowers with a dinky blue bow- so pretty!





Jo arranged her own reception flowers at the venue but I provided the centrepiece for the ceremony/ top table.
