Individual and unusual Bridal flowers are a speciality. Here we incorporated a fun loving personality and a wish for informality into bright and natural sheaf's of flowers and foliage.

Beautiful Wedding Flowers . . . . . how are you going to have yours?

Flowers for the Bride........

A more formal teardrop bouquet for a traditional look. Lilies and roses in ivory and terra-cotta match the Bridesmaids colours exactly. The cascading greenery gives a lighter look.

And for the Bridesmaids...

Adult and childrens flowers to enhance the chosen colours. A more formal scene for a picturesque English Wedding.

The Church......

A pedestal arrangement of silk and fresh flowers. Designed in gold and ivory mixed flowers and foliage, this arrangement was moved after the Ceremony to the ballroom where the guests could enjoy it all day.

The Reception.....

A more set piece reception of top table and round guest tables. This is our most popular range of designs for reception decor. The ribbon garland across the front of the top table brings together the three chosen colours in a subtle way.

And the Marquee.

Marquees always take a little longer to complete, but are well worth the effort. This type of venue provides a blank canvas with which to work. As a Bride you are free to give a modern or historical feel by the clever use of different flowers and foliage types. Above you will see a very small selection of a floral design area which is expanding rapidly. Marquees as a venue for receptions, continue to become more popular every year, perhaps this is because it suites the more relaxed style of the modern wedding.

Top Tip
TOP TIP ONE: One of your first considerations is how much of any floral work will be fresh, and what might be better suited in an artificial medium. A great deal of effort goes into sourcing realistic and natural looking man-made and natural plant material. The result are wonderful life like ranges of flowers that are now available to our florist. The longevity factor is the most obvious plus point with these mediums. They are more robust (those darling little bridesmaids come to mind!), and give the flexibility of being able to plan and view the exact colour & composition of the pieces, in advance of the wedding day.

This staircase arrangement is completely artificial. In this area of this Wedding Reception venue it was important to produce arrangements which could experience' wear and tear' and still look good all day. This is the result.

Top Tip
TOP TIP TWO: is you must decide which areas do you wish to act as the focus in your overall floral decor? Church, Reception, or Personal flowers? Top table, marquee poles, doorways or pedestals?
Is it important to you to have the understated elegance of a carefully crafted personal bouquet? or a floral symphony of colour and multiple flower types in a reception marquee? The choice is yours, and the impression it creates is all part of a memorable wedding day.

Top Tip
TOP TIP THREE: remember a few lovely arrangements that really show the Brides style, enhance the venue and work in with the Bridal bouquets ,cake flowers etc, are much more effective visually than many small and often overlooked pieces scattered here and there. This is usually also the most cost effective way of decorating a venue.

Marriage Ceremonies at Licensed Venues

Wedding in the Priory barn, IoW.

Modern Medieval type civil ceremony in a thatched barn. This type of new venue now offers possibilities to theme your wedding if you wish. This particular example shows a barn with large ivy garlands attached to roof beams, decorated candlesticks, two pedestals of roses ,daisies and greenery and candle arrangements to scatter throughout the venue. The mullion windows were also filled with candles. After the ceremony the arrangements were moved into new sites for the wedding celebration. The aim here is to be both in harmony with the venue and create the Brides Wedding ideas within it.
