Katherine's Wedding Flowers, Marwell Hotel

Well, it has been an embarrassingly long time since I last posted. A house move is the reason, way too much sorting, packing, more sorting and unpacking for a busy wedding florist ! However all done now and normal service on the blogging front resumes.First up is this lovely late August wedding using orchids and gladioli to give a touch of simple glamour.

Katherine's shower bouquet of pink and purple orchids, pink freesias.

Purple gladioli make tall, simple but striking and quite contemporary centrepieces. They look great here on the tables at the Marwell Hotel.

That just leaves me to say thank you so much Katherine for asking me to design and create your wedding flowers for you and I am so glad you were so happy with them.

Ellie's Yellow and Blue Wedding Flowers, Marwell Hotel

Nothing like a touch of yellow to brighten up a grey autumn day. For Ellie's wedding it's combined with blue and a touch of white for a fresh, young and very pretty look in the country style. Ellie loved daisies, lots of them - being October, I've used Aster but in a way that has exactly the look she was after.

Yellow roses, blue hydrangea, freesias, "daisies" ( Aster) and gypsophila make a gorgeous bouquet for Ellie. Fresh, modern, pretty and slightly country style.
