Clare's Vintage Style Wedding Flowers, Botley Park

A lovely vintage styled wedding from late August, yes - I am starting the great catch up !
 I won't get them all posted but hope to share some lovely late summer- autumn schemes over the next few weeks.


Clare's gorgeous vintage styled bouquet in soft dusky pinks and blush with a hint of ivory and silver. I have used Sweet Avalanche and Upper Secret roses, spray roses, astilbe and asclepia with a little eucalyptus to create the look. The stems are finished with a vintage lace for the perfect finishing touch.


Vintage styled dusky pink - blush bouquet of mixed roses, spray roses, asclepia and astilbe with lace wrap to finish.


Gorgeous but simple vintage styled buttonhole of Upper Secret rose with eucalyptus berry


Tiny posy of rose, spray rose, asclepia and eucalyptus with lace wrap for the flower girls.


Adult bridesmaids carried a smaller version of the bridal bouquet but without the astilbe. Mixed vintage style roses always look lovely.


Tall centrepiece of mixed pink-blush roses and spray roses on vintage styled cream painted stand.


Cream painted bird cages with a wedding themed design of mixed pink-blush roses and spray roses looked lovely mixed in with the tall table centres.


And finally, Clare's gorgeous 4 tier wedding cake with the space between the tiers packed with dusky pink and blush roses, spray roses and a little eucalyptus berry. 

And that just leaves me to say thank you so much Clare for asking me to design and create your wedding flowers for you. I loved working on this beautiful vintage styled scheme.

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.


Hand tied bouquet of Memory Lane roses, purple singapore orchids and pink freesias for Katherine's bridesmaid.


Simple buttonhole of pink phalaenopsis orchid.


The bouquet in action, the colours look lovely with the bridesmaid's dress


Tiny co-ordinating single rose posy for the flower girls.


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


Simple but striking top table design of loose purple gladioli flowers and candles.

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.
