Nicola & Paul Lundy's Exquisite Wedding Day at All Saints Church, Higher Walton & Mitton Hall

Gary & I started our Saturday bright and early, we headed off to Higher Walton to decorate All Saints Church, preparations were already under way when we arrived, the grass was being cut, the church sparkled and Simon the lovely Vicar was organising everything.

Jason had left even earlier to set up all of the table designs at Mitton Hall, we all merged later on but it's all about team work and we have the very best events team.





We opted for decorating the inner arch as the light was lovely in the porch and we decided there would be more protection from the elements.

I arranged little nosegays of fragrant Muscari, Lily of the Valley, Roses and other lovely garden gathered flowers in the porch area.

Some gorgeous David Austin roses were amongst the bevvy of beauty.

Once the church was ready to recieve visitors we moved on further up the road to the brides family home, I love the "The Big Reveal" I always get so nervous, heart pounding and all that...

Nicola is such a beautiful bride and it really was a great honour to create her flowers

The Bridesmaids were equally as beautiful and thankfully equally as thrilled with their bouquets

The very "Blooming Lovely Jane" from Pure Beauty in St Annes, to be fair these girls were so gorgeous Jane didn't really have her work cut out, but that said the make up was sensational, the colours, the application and finish were simply perfect.

Then back to All Saints

Pew End dressings with fragrant Jasmine, Sweet Peas & Avalanche Roses.


The Urns were filled with Spirea, Delphiniums, David Austin Roses Rosalind & Emily, Hydrangeas & Orchids.

This really is a beautiful Church

Nicola's Grandparents arrived and we pinned on their Avalanche Rose Boutonierres.

My favourite Choir in the world started to arrive "One Voice" they are totally amazing worth every penny, if you're having a Church wedding I honestly can't reccommend them highly enough.

The Uber-Handsome Groom Paul

wearing an Avalanche Rose, fresh Lily of the Valley.

Can this day get any better? Steve Ashton exceptional wedding photographer too! working with a career photographer is an utterly different experience, we do meet with lots of different photographers but the "proper" ones whose full time profession is photography really are head and shoulders above the rest. Ashton Photography epitomise professionalism.

Jamie the Best Man wore a slightly more special Rose Bouttoniere than the Ushers.

Wrist Corsage White Calla & White Rose

"One Voice" in full voice truly brilliant, the entire congregation was swaying and singing along, they raised the roof and everyone was so excited including the brilliant vicar Simon.

Groom's Mum Ellie looking far too young and beautiful, we made a lovely Hand Bag corsage for her, for Paul's Grandma a simple Avalanche Rose with Diamante detail.

Is this the cheekiest and most excited flower girl ever? The Bridesmaid's arrived, the flower girls are carrying bouquets of simple innocent, fragrant Sweet Peas.

The adult Bridesmaid bouquets were created from a collection of English Garden Flowers like Blue Bells, Clematis, Muscari, Sweet Peas & David Austin Roses. Angela the most glamarous Bride's Mum, her handbag corsage of Muscari, rolled rose petals & Hydrangea was a perfect match.

The bridal bouquet we created for Nicola was in a “Flower Design” hand tied garden gathered style I used a lovely combination of seasonal white and ivory together with some early summer fresh green shades, I included white Peonies, David Austin Patience Roses, Marousia Roses, Sweet Peas, Lily of the Valley, Lissianthus in pale green and Alchemilla Mollis.

Massive Congratulations to Nicola & Paul

Olivia looked adorable

Even the vicar was taking pictures...

Next Stop Magnificent Mitton Hall...
We arranged flowers and rose petals on the low tables in the orangery where the guests rellaxed and sipped Champagne.

These are the posies of delight that graced the top table, lots of lovely blooms including David Austin Roses

The Dining Room had been laid out perfectly Barry, Rachel & the team at Mitton Hall had done their usual sublime job.

The terraced area beyond the orangery leads down to the river and is simply idyllic

The guests were entertained by a superb violinist.

The canapes looked quite fabulous and the lovely young lady that handed them out did so with a serious amount of panache.

We designed some beautiful candelabra table centres to compliment the grape and ivory colour combination

The Chairs were covered by our old friends Creative Cover Hire

The pew end posies decorated the windowsills.

Hand tied posies with fresh Clematis, sweet Peas, Blue Bells and David Austin roses completed the table centrepieces.

Broughton Wedding Cars were looking mighty fine

Nicola & Paul had the most perfect day and all the team at Flower Design are really delighted to have been part of such a magnificent wedding day, thank you for choosing us.

The very last words on this posting belong to Nicola & Paul "The perfect flowers you made for our wedding were so beautiful and beyond our imagination, you have a fabulous service which we would recommend time after time, wish we could do it all again..."
