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.

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.

Jen's December Wedding Flowers, Rhinefield House

An early December wedding at Rhinefield House, a soft but seasonal look for the flowers and bridesmaids in plum . Here are Jen and Matt's wedding flowers.

Winter themed bouquet in vintage colours using Memory Lane, Amnesia and Metalina roses with green skimmia, mini pine cones, blue pine and paperwhites for our bride. Gorgeous for this December wedding with it's Christmassy theme.

Winter buttonhole of Metalina rose, mini pine cones and blue pine. Perfect for the

 Christmas look.

December bridesmaids' bouquets in antique shades using Amnesia and Metalina roses with green skimmia, paperwhites and pine. Really lovely with their deep plum dresses.

Wintery posy for the flower girls using a Memory Lane rose with skimmia, paperwhites and pine.

Modern table centre in antique/vintage shades with candles surrounded by roses, skimmia, pine, mistletoe and moss. Each table centre had 9 candles of differing heights, Rhinefield must have looked amazing with all those candles lit. 

A linear version makes a lovely, modern and wintery design for the top table which was dressed with 3 of these along the length.

Modern top table wedding flowers for a December wedding at Rhinefield. Either side of the top table are 2 "floral" trees. I also created a pair for the entrance to the Kings room.

My wintery floral tree - a close up. A gorgeous mix of roses, skimmia, pine and mistletoe. 

Alcove flowers in the Great Hall at Rhinefield. A candle in a storm lantern with a design of pine, roses and mistletoe at the base.

Another great idea for a December wedding with a christmas theme. A Christmas tree used as a table plan. Just add some pretty fairy lights ( bride's own) and some bauble shaped cards ( supplied by the bride)

I love a winter wedding ! The day was perfect, dry and bright and I absolutely loved working on this very seasonal theme for Jen and Matt. A big thank you to them for choosing me to design and create their wedding flowers and very many congratulations on their marriage.
