Seriously Sensational Summer Wedding For Rachel & Alex Featuring Some Stunning Images From Liam Crawley

This is one of my all time favourite weddings, I love the colour it's so sensational, this wedding was in the most vibrant shades, I love people and these folks were amazing, I love late summer sunshine, I love wheat fields and Marquees, I love beautifully kept and much loved country Churches, Beautiful Brides, Handsome Grooms and this wedding day had it all in bucket loads, but, and this is the thing, because you don't always get this, they had an amazing photographer the uber brilliant and talented Liam Crawley of CG Weddings by The Crawley's fame who has so generously provided many of the images throughout this posting, (I will, though I suspect it isn't necessary point out to you which images are his) our fabulous Ruby has taken all of the rest which are pretty good for a florist!!!!

Ruby presented the Bridal Bouquets and Bridal Bouquet carrying lesson, these gorgeous girls were absolute naturals
The Bridal bouquets were created in a myriad of shades, I used meadow, hedgerow and country garden blooms, I wanted the bouquets to have a hand gathered vibe...
The little Flower Girl had her Teddy Bear dressed with fresh flowers
The following few images are by Liam...
A Palette of fresh hair flowers, each one individually wired and taped ready to be placed in the Bridesmaids hair "Do's"
Each Bridesmaid had a unique combination of flowers in her hair
A beautiful Boutonniere of shell pink roses
The Bridal Bouquet's were finished off with a semi naked lace and jute handle
The Bridesmaid's Bouquets were vibrant and lush each one was different and unique

Back to our Ruby's images...
St Hilda's Church in Bilsborrow, one of the most beautiful and well kept Churches, we'd dressed the arch
The Church Gate was dressed with an exquisite floral heart
Our Mike was busy lighting all of the candles in the lanterns lining the aisle


We'd been to visit this Church a couple of weeks earlier so I'd been lucky enough to see the fabulous flower beds surrounding and leading up to the Church as a consequence we'd chosen flowers and colours to match creating a truly organic look

This is a full and voluptuous Church Door Arch, we included Hydrangeas, Roses, Peonies, Alliums, Sweet Peas, Craspedia and trailing Amaranthus
Some more amazing images from Liam Crawley....
Ruby & Mike pinned on all of the Boutonnieres 







Inside The Church we'd dressed with windowsills and ledges with jam jars filled with posies of fresh flowers in a all shapes and sizes
The Pew ends had gorgeous little Jam jars filled with fresh fragrant flowers and herbs hanging from ribbons



Back to our pictures....
The Bride Groom's rather special Boutonniere designed to compliment his Bride's Bouquet

A fabulously wild and vibrant design dominated by Eremurus, Delphiniums and Alliums sat on the Font at the back of Church and welcomed the guests as they entered this lovely building


 
On either side of the Altar two fabulous pedestals framed the space perfectly
Jam Jars of flowers dressed the Pulpit


The pedestal designs had a naturally wild and random feel to them

The Celebrations moved on to the wonderful surroundings of our Bride's family home where Marquees had been erected in the middle of wheat fields
The heart of fresh flowers had been transferred to the garden gate
Pew end posies hung on fence poles around the garden

Inside the magnificent Marquee we used a combination of high and low table designs
The beautiful Wedding cake was topped by a beautiful little posy of fresh flowers


The slate on the top table had been collected by the Bride Groom and was the perfect medium for the glass vases filled with vibrant posies of garden flowers to sit on 


Our spectacularly tall and vibrant Crystal Candlestick designs

The little posies that were all around Church were used all around the marquees and gardens
