Charlotte's Autumn Wedding Flowers - East Horton Golf Club

For her October wedding, Charlotte choose a lovely mix of pale roses, freesias and foliages to give a beautifully soft, classic but natural look to her flowers. The designs also had hints of vintage and hints of autumn and very beautiful they were too.  And so here they are - Charlotte's wedding flowers.

Buttonholes of rose, eucalyptus and ivory hypericum berry for the men.

Charlotte's autumn bouquet of roses, freesias and berries with trails of ivy. To create it I used Avalanche and Vendela roses with freesias and hypericum berry mixed with variegated pittosporum, asparagus fern and eucalyptus.

Posy of rose, berry, mixed foliages and a butterfly, 1 each for the 2 little flower girls.

Wrist corsage of rose with eucalyptus leaf, asparagus fern and diamante for Charlotte's mum.

Candelabra flowers in whites,creams and silvers using roses, freesias and berries with mixed foliages and trails of ivy at the East Horton Golf Club. I used the ivory hypericum berry and berried eucalyptus to give the lovely, natural, autumn vintage feel to the designs.

Alison's Autumn Wedding Flowers, Rownhams House

Alison had set her wedding for the 1st October and  was looking for a strong autumnal look to her flowers to reflect the changing season. Inspired by her love of the stunning autumnal leaves and colours we devised a beautifully seasonal floral scheme using red oak leaves, berries, roses and freesias in gorgeous autumnal colours. Naturally, the english weather had other ideas, it was 80 degrees in the shade !

Continuing the autumn theme, I scattered red oak leaves around the guest book as an extra little touch.

Thank you too to Sally Johnson for these gorgeous photos.

Sarah's Wedding Flowers, Warsash Church & The Alverbank Hotel

Sarah chose a lovely, soft and pretty, dusky pink and cream scheme for her wedding flowers. She loved a country style bouquet I had done last year and so we used that as a basis but adapted the look to better suit her truly gorgeous, elegant, all over lace wedding dress. A couple of relatively small changes and we had a look that was all her own - and so here they are Sarah's wedding flowers.

Buttonhole of Vendela Rose and myrtle for the men.

Bouquet of cream and pink roses, stocks, freesias and lisianthus with myrtle and asparagus fern for Sarah. The look is classic with vintage hints. It was a hit.

Warsash church wedding flowers - a pedestal design with candles of cream and pink roses, stocks, lisianthus and gypsophila. I placed one either side of the top of the aisle for Sarah's wedding ceremony.

Co-ordinating table flowers in cube vase of roses, stocks, lisianthus, freesia and gypsophila and a tie of cream ribbon to finish for the reception at The Alverbank Hotel.

For the top table, I created these mini designs of rose, lisianthus and gypsophila and alternated them with tea lights, the bridal bouquet had pride of place in the centre. The pedestals were moved from the church and place at either end.
