Cery's Wedding Flowers- Purple and White

For lovers of purple and white - Cery's wedding flowers. 

Purple and white bouquet of roses and lisianthus, simple but stunning. The rose is a lovely scented variety called Norma Jean and the lisianthus is a bi coloured white variety with a deep purple edge.

Purple and white lisianthus were the perfect choice for the men's buttonholes

Wrist corsages of purple and white lisianthus with a touch of myrtle on a hand made silver wire mesh bangle. For the bridesmaids but just as lovely for a mum.

That just leaves me to say thank you Cerys for choosing me to design and create your wedding flowers for you. I hope you had a fabulous day. 

Jen's Wedding Flowers, Chilworth Manor

For her late October wedding, Jen chose a colour scheme of dusky pinks, deep greens and whites using a romantic mix of roses, freesias and lisianthus as her flowers. These gorgeous flowers are available all year round so no need to worry about seasonal availability with these. 

Classic bouquet of dusky pink and ivory roses with pink freesias, white lisianthus and a touch of rosemary and myrtle for our bride.

Flower girl posy of Keano rose with pink freesia and myrtle, always a hit with little girls.

Corsage of lisianthus,rosemary and myrtle. The myrtle is berried at this time of year giving the designs a lovely hint of the autumn season.

Ivory birdcages with dusky pink and ivory flowers, rosemary, myrtle and a twirl of ivy make a gorgeous table centre with a hint of the shabby chic.

Each table was named after - a table - love it. Here we have the coffee table with a bird cage design

The other half of the tables were decorated with these gorgeous painted flower pot designs. Each design had a slight variation in the flowers used but the look is kept consistent. Both the pots and the birdcages are ivory and used the same flowers and foliages so the mix works perfectly as a whole. Lovely and natural and just gorgeous for this room overlooking the gardens.

A huge thank you too to Kate for the photos - stunning as ever.

Hampshire Regency Dancers 10th Anniversary Ball Flowers, Old Alresford House

Congratulations To Hampshire Regency Dancers who celebrated their 10th anniversary with a ball at Old Alresford House. I was delighted to be asked to help with some floral designs in the style of the Regency period. The regency period - the age of elegance, of Jane Austin, of dancing cards and flowers were THE fashion. To recreate the look I used old english garden roses ( here we had to bend the rules and have them imported due to the time of year) mixed essentially with flowers and foliages cut from the gardens as they would have been at that time. The gardens I have to say were not mine but those of a rather famous and rather large garden with a huge selection of possible material. A big thank you to them for helping us with this rather special project.
