The Williams-Lumb Wedding - March 2013

Carlie's bridal bouquet was a striking mix of deep purple and ivory calla lilies with pink and light purple tulips. The two-tone calla lilies and tulips looked lovely in the bridesmaids bouquets.

Preparing the calla lily and tulip buttonholes was a pleasure; 

I enjoy working with a mix of colours and love the gentle scent of the tulips.

The vibrant mix of colours and navy satin ribbon looked beautiful against the antique gold of Carlie's dress.

   

The tulips looked beautiful lining the aisle in The Great Tythe Barn and arranged into vases around this stunning space.

The martini vase centrepieces looked striking filled with water crystals, tulips and calla lilies twisted through. 

The lights in each vase reflected through the water crystals and glowed in the evening.

The Wilkinson-Rose Wedding (September 2012)

 

 Leah and Andy planned a wedding with a 1950's swing theme and beautiful purple accent colours. Leah chose four different shades of purple to tone with the stunning bridesmaid dresses. She was keen to have a mix of real and silk roses particularly as her maiden name is Rose. The combination of real ivory roses and dupion silk roses in the different shades of purple looked stunning.

 

Each bridesmaid wore a silk dupion rose wrist corsage and a purple cultured pearl bracelet and earring set. The flower-girls looked precious with their matching silk rose pomanders. 

 

The Mother-of-the Bride looked resplendent in her outfit finished with a silk rose corsage in purple tones. The buttonholes were real ivory roses finished with different coloured strips of the purple silks. 

Leah's bridal bouquet was remade into a keepsake bouquet using ivory silk dupion roses following the wedding and the real roses dried as a memento of this beautiful day.

The table centrepieces were designed to work with Andy and Leah's theme to suggest giant Martini cocktails with silk roses and crystals instead of olives.
