Splendidly Floral Wedding Day of Jo & Will as Captured by Christian Allen Photography at The Grand Hotel St Annes
This was a very special wedding day way back in September, our Bride & Groom were tying the knot at St Mary's Church in Alsager and then celebrating afterwards at The Grand here on the coast.
~
The plan was for our Bride to collect her bouquets & Boutonnieres from us the evening before and we would decorate The Grand in time for their arrival the following day, a heat wave ensued and our plans were dashed.
~
Saving the day, their wonderful photographers Christian & Rhona Allen offered to collect them from us before breakfast, thankfully Rhona's a dab hand at pinning on Boutonnieres and of course the lovely Christian is pretty brilliant at photography, what a joy it is to share their superb images of such a stunning wedding day!!!!

We loved and adored Jo's beautiful Bridal Bouquet we'd included a plethora of late summer blooms in soft hazy hues of Heather, Lavender and Lilac with some delicate pink shades warming the colour palette perfectly
This Beautiful Bridal Bouquet was created from a collection of vintage toned Roses; Memory Lane, Cool Water, Amnesia and Metalina, Hydrangeas, fresh Herbs Oregano, Mint, Lavender and Rosemary, fresh Phlox, Astrantia, Dancing Grasses and the last of the Summer's Peonies and Sweet Peas, the handle of the bouquet was bound in lace and clasped with a vintage brooch
The Adult Bridesmaid's Posies included more ivory shades to ensure contrast against their lavender gowns, we'd bound their handles with the same fabric as the dresses with a lace band and a vintage brooch
The super glam Groom's Mum was wearing Blue we'd created a corsage to tone. And for this lovely collection of Flower Girls as their dresses were ivory the more lavender shades predominated in their heavenly bouquets
The lovely Flower Girl's Posies were miniature versions of the Bride's Bouquet
The Bridal party arrived looking breathtaking
Inside Church Jo's handsome Bride Groom William along with his Best Man were waiting patiently, their boutonnieres matched the bridal bouquets perfectly
So gorgeous!!!!xxx
