Ciara's Vintage Cream and Burgundy Wedding Flowers, Rhinefield House

For her wedding in Valentine's week, Ciara chose a colour scheme of burgundy and gold and a very soft,romantic vintage look for her flowers. Now we  all know what happens to the price of red/burgundy flowers in Valentines week and here is a lovely idea for introducing a touch of the colour whilst still keeping the look soft and romantic. Skimmia, a lovely little shrub with pale burgundy berry like buds that are absolutely perfect for this look.


Vintage,bouquet in creams, golds and burgundy with a touch of green.Perfect for a winter wedding, Ciara's was in February. I've used Vendela roses, skimmia, lisianthus, paperwhites (for a touch of spring and the scent) with mixed foliages. A gorgeous compliment for an all over vintage styled lace dress.


Burgundy and cream vintage styled bouquet, perfect for the bridesmaids who wore burgundy. Again, it is a mix of roses, skimmia, lisianthus and paperwhites with mixed foliages.


Winter bridesmaid's bouquet in creams - pale golds and burgundy. 


A little corsage for Ciara's little girl. Lisianthus ( because it is soft and very lightweight) skimmia, ivy leaves and asparagus fern.

For the mum's a co-ordinating pin on corsage of rose, paperwhites and mixed vintage toned foliages. 


For the remaining men, buttonhole of Vendela rose, burgundy skimmia and foliages.

And that completes the wedding party, next up are the church flowers. 

Sorry it's been a while - but here they are

Louise's Cream and Gold Wedding Flowers, Solent Spa

For her February wedding Louise chose a lovely colour scheme of cream, gold and ivory and a very pretty but classic look.

Wedding Showcase, New Place, Part 3

Last but not least, it's the turn of the Arden Suite. It's January ( or at least it was) and again I have given the flowers a distinctly wintery feel but using the fresh green and white colours of the approaching ( we hope) Spring. 


Ideas for January wedding flowers, the Arden Suite at New Place is decorated with a fresh green and white scheme with lots of candlelight to create a really warm cosy atmosphere for a winter wedding reception. 


Winter wedding flowers at New Place. Here I have combined tall table centres of roses, ranunculus, paperwhites and winter foliages with low designs of a co-ordinating wreath around a candle within a storm lantern and a generous top table design in sections with candles in storm lanterns in between. The mix of high and low designs helps bring colour and flower at every level for extra impact. 


Tall, wintery table centre in a cocktail vase using large ivory roses, ranunculus and paperwhites with pine and a trail of ivy wound round the vase for a contemporary touch.

The Arden Suite at New Place, all set up for a wedding. It's January and hopefully this post, and the 2 before it have helped show what a lovely time of year it can be for wedding flowers. No need to be overly Christmassy, there is a huge choice of early Spring flowers available now in readiness for the change in seasons. .

A huge thank you again to Sally Johnson for her very beautiful photos.

Wedding Showcase, New Place, Part 2

Part two of the flowers I did for the wedding showcase at New Place in January and it's the turn of the gorgeous Bristol room all set out as it would be for a wedding ceremony.


The Bristol room at New Place all set out for a wedding ceremony. To compliment all that beautiful plaster and stonework, I chose a scheme of antique pinks.


Vintage pinks and a distinctly wintery look for these stand designs for the fireplace at New Place. The rose is called Sahara and it's a beauty. Here I've combined it with viburnum, freesia and pine, a stunning combination for a January wedding.


Co-ordinating mantlepiece design in antique pinks and vintage winter style


Vintage winter wedding flowers at New Place, the Bristol room. Stand designs are perfect for either side of the fireplace and they can be moved to the Arden Suite after the ceremony for the wedding breakfast.


The beautiful rose, Sahara is perfect for this look, I love the way the golden light of the late afternoon sun is reflecting on the stonework here, love too the ivy trail shadow on the stonework.

Many thanks as ever to Sally Johnson for these gorgeous photos

Hopefully too, I've helped show  that January wedding flowers need not be problematical, it is in fact a gorgeous time of year for flowers and for weddings.

Wedding Showcase, New Place, Shirrell Heath

Here at last, some of the photos from the January Wedding Showcase at New Place. A chance to see just how beautiful this venue can look when all set out ready for a wedding. We gave this one a distinctly winter theme to show couples what a lovely time of year this can be to get married.
