2012-01-28T14:48:00.000Z

Fresh Flowers adorned the magnificent gates that welcomed the guests as they arrived for this magnificent wedding at Knowsley Hall

We had dressed the steps that lead up to the main entrance at Knowsley

Fabulous topiaries of Buxus & Bay trees were arranged up the steps along with spectacular Nephrelepis Ferns and trailing variegated ivies

As you walk into the entrance hall the first design on the fireplace of Raspberry Anthuriums, Stocks, Viburnum Opulus, Roses & Calla Lilies looked so majestic and complimented the design of the carpet perfectly.

Just to the right a huge and elegant column shaped pedestal was home to this glorious design of South African Proteas (Used to remind the Bride Groom of living in South Africa), Gloriosa Rothschild, Gerberas and Meyerii Ferns.

At the foot of this exquisite staircase stood a tall elegant vase of Arum Lilies, Raspberry Peonies and Pendulum Heliconias

As the guests walked through the series of rooms leading to the Ball Room where the ceremony was to take place, small but perfectly placed floral designs made them feel welcome.

A tall elegant lily vase with white Arum Lilies Formium, Gerberas and Umbrella Fern arranged to compliment both the curtains and wallpaper in the room

The main hall leading directly to the Ceremony Room was dressed with this huge central design of Lilies, Proteas, Roses and Anthuriums and breathtaking foliages

The Ceremony Room looked heavenly, we arranged silver Champagne Buckets filled with Black Ostrich Feather Trees, garlanded together with Sperengerii and Smilax attached with bunches of Black Grapes designed to mirror the garlands on walls and fireplace.

The Ceremony space really had a Champagne vibe with the gorgeous Champagne buckets lining the aisle and these huge giant Champagne Glasses framing the ceremony.

We used an elegant array of white blooms and Black Ostrich Feathers sat on top giant Champagne Glasses filled with Hot Pink "Kir Royale" cocktails ('ish)

We used glorious Arums, White Peonies, Lilies and Viburnum Opulus within these sculptural designs

The Registrars table design included to Champagne flutes intertwined with grape vine pouring out exquisite white Peonies on to the table

The Bridesmaids looked fabulous with bouquets of Hot Pink Roses surrounded by black marabou feathers

The hot pink roses in heir bouquets co-ordinated perfectly with the hot pink roses on the backs of their gowns

The two little Flower Girls carried Magic Wands dressed with Lily of the Valley & Hot Pink Sweet Peas & Roses

The Two Maids of Honour Carried Ostrich Feather and Protea Petal Fans instead of regular bouquets

The Bridal Bouquet was a fusion of all things English & South African; Fresh fragrant Lily of the Valley, Arum Lilies, Peonies, Roses & Sweet Peas and from South Africa Ostrich Feathers, Proteas, Albiflora and Typha Grass

Christmas Vintage Wedding at The West Tower, Aughton of Alison Barrow & Adam Rudd

2012-01-19T11:00:00.000Z

This wedding seemed such a long time in coming, Ali's attended our annual Christmas Wreath Making Workshop, she's visited wedding open days and we'd been to West Tower for a walk through, we'd had a few creative appointments at FD HQ culminating in the creation of Ali's trial wedding bouquet a few weeks prior to the "Big Day" so all in all the foundation work for this splendid day had been pretty thorough, no stone was left unturned.

I've loved helping Alison with the planning and design of her wedding flowers, Ali has the very best taste; subtle romantic shades with just enough of a hint of Christmas to make it truly a memorable festive wedding day!

Thankfully the beautiful Bride was moved to tears by her glorious wedding bouquet, honestly those are tears of joy!!!

And this reaction to the mention of fresh Peonies in the Registrars table design, I mean Peonies in December, who would have thought it!!!!

The Bridesmaid's bouquets were a smaller version of the bridal bouquet created using a collection of pale vintage shaded Roses including Faith, Vendella, Metalina & Snow Flake, lovely seasonal Ranunculas, Bouvardia and Tulips

The Bridal Bouquet was such a delight to create, delicate shades of antique pinks, creams and ivories with high lights in the Eucalyptus Green greys through to silver a perfect compliment to the green Bridesmaids gowns

The fabulous venue for the ceremony and celebrations was the West Tower at Aughton

To welcome Alison & Adam's guests a huge bell created from grape vine and covered in fresh Mistletoe hung over the entrance porch and encouraged a great deal of kissing!

The outdoor area leading to the front door was decorated with candle lit lanterns and posies of fresh seasonal flowers

We selected flowers to use outside that would enjoy a crisper climate so frilly edged Tulips, Ranunculas and thistles were enlisted to create a lovely floral walk way

The front door looked resplendent dressed with this magnificent seasonal welcome ring of fragrant Evergreens, Classic Hydrangeas, Sweet Avalanche & Vendella Roses, Wax Flower Blossom and fragrant Eucalyptus Globes

As soon as you stepped through the door into the cosy warm and welcoming hall way guests were greeted by a delightful vase of towering Pussy Willow, Roses and Classic Hydrangeas

A magical world of Bridal loveliness awaited the guests, even the elegant staircase was treated to a garland of fresh fragrant herbs and luscious Roses swathed in ivory satin Ribbon

Take a left directly into the Ceremony suite where the scene was set for a truly romantic afternoon

The decor at the West Tower is just perfect, a blank canvas on which to paint your own personal wedding picture, I love the details though, fabulous chandeliers and superb lighting, even I managed some half decent images!

At the top of the small staircase we'd arranged elegant arrangements on top of fabric covered pedestals (these matched the chair covers perfectly) and then placed candle lit candelabras extending the aisle

Once down the stairs Hurricane lamps lined the aisle and fresh fragrant posies were placed on the back of alternate chairs lining the aisle

Sweet Avalanche Rose surrounded by bundles of fragrant cinnamon, frosted branches creating a wintery landscape for the Roses to nestle in.

A Faith Rose

The cream carpet and chair covers were provided by the excellent team at Creative Cover Hire

The posies on the backs of the ceremony chairs included Ranunculas, silver Eryngium Thistles, Sweet Avalanche Roses, Frilly white Tulips, Thalaspi, Wax Flower, Eucalyptus and Classic Hydrangeas

The Registrars table design was a heavenly concoction of Roses, Peonies, Euphorbia Fulgens, Wax Flower Blossom and a collection of fragrant evergreens all illuminated by two Chapel Candles

The smaller Registrars table to the left of the main table had a smaller design of White Lilac, Roses & Sarah Bernhardt Peonies

Pale Pink Sarah Bernhardt Peonies in December

Whilst the guests were enjoying drinks in the bar the ceremony room was transformed into a magnificent banqueting suite, our pedestal designs were transferred on to giant Martini glasses and placed in the centre of dining tables where they looked stupendous

The "Top Table" was a round table in the centre of the dining room, we arranged a low silver fruit bowl in the centre complete with fresh Peonies and a candle

All of the details were exquisite including the stationery, the tables were named after the Twelve Days of Christmas

Floral Candleabras graced some of the dining tables and helped to create a magical atmosphere

Each couple was presented by a hand inscribed glass bauble to place on their own Christmas Tree

The guests were provided with one of our "Enchanted Trees" on which they could hang their baubles

The tree was dressed with fresh Ranunculas, Blue Spruce and hanging crystals

The seating plan was fantastic you just had to locate the first letter of your Christian name from the table of letters and then the label attached told you where you were seated.

This really was a fabulous wedding day, huge thanks to Alison and Adam for choosing to use Flower Design Events to create their wedding flowers! and many thanks to Adele & Phil for pointing them in the right direction!!!!!

A Rustic Christmas Wedding at The Inn at Whitewell

2012-01-17T20:42:00.001Z

I loved the flowers at this wonderful wedding, Sarah's & Brendon's flowers really were the epitome of a rustic Christmas, marrying the scenery with the festive season.

The Inn at Whitewell is set in the most idyllic countryside, with well stocked hedgerows stretching for miles and luscious forestry, we really wanted to be sympathetic to this glorious landscape whilst creating a warm, cosy, romantic atmosphere for this very special wedding day.

Jason tracked down our beautiful Bride Sarah with her Bridesmaids in one of the stunning bedrooms at The Inn at Whitewell, the all important FD Events wedding bouquet holding lesson ensued and as ever he managed to achieve their undivided attention (I just don't know how he does it!!)

I included some truly sensational rustic ingredients to this Christmas Wedding Bouquet it smelled absolutely delicious

The guests were all seated at one very sumptuous table

Candelabras dressed with garlands of fresh flowers and foliages these were placed down the centre of the table

In between the candelabras intricately decorated festive vases of fresh flowers were placed among fairy lights to create a really romantic Christmas dining table

Huge mounds of fragrant Cinnamon, Preserved Clementines, delicious Cranberries, Crab Apples and Pomegranites were at the base of each of the candelabras

As the light dimmed outside the atmosphere around the table became more magical, the candles reflected in the windows and the fairy lights glowed

Each of the guests were given home made chutneys and jams at their place setting

The Inn at Whitewell is such a special venue with bags of character and atmosphere

Vintage Spring Wedding Bouquet & Table Centrepiece

2012-01-11T15:23:00.000Z

Vintage wedding bouquet in shades of Antique pink

This Bridal Bouquet is in a clustered, textured style, it's extremely spherical reminiscent of "Topiaries" I created the design using a vast array of vintage Roses including "Bombastic", "Memory Lane", "Amnesia" and "Vendella" & an exquisite selection of Floribunda Roses, Spring Ranunculas, Skimmia Berries, Bouvardia, Classic Hydrangeas, Dianthus "Antique" and Wax Flower Blossom

The vintage table design created to accompany the wedding bouquet follows the same silhouette, a spherical design enhanced by the use of round forms, such as Roses, Dianthus and Hydrangeas, delicate foliages such as Thalaspi and Eucalyptus "Baby Blue" just breaking the edges creating the illusion of a larger fuller design, I love the tall silver candlestick adding to the "Vintage" vibe.

These two are such a fabulous couple, their mood board was one of the best ever with really clear information, painting a picture of how they wanted their day to look.... Lots of sparkle, frosty branches, Pearls & Diamantes, Classic white and Ivory seasonal flowers.

Louisa's Winter Frost wedding bouquet of Phalaenopsis Orchids, Lily of the Valley, White Nerines, Christmas Roses and fragrant winter evergreens, the additional detail of silver Birch, strands of Pearls and diamantes created a truly magical Winter Wedding Bouquet.

At Louisa's home we presented her bridal bouquet whilst her brilliant Mum was fastening up her glorious gown.

Then we were off to the brilliant venue The Great Hall at Mains to meet up with Louisa's lovely Groom David and to pin on his very special Groom's Boutonniere, it did include a Blue thistle in honour of Manchester City

The Bride's Brother chose to wear a tangerine Rose in honour of Blackpool Football Club

The ceremony space looked magical with tall vases filled with fairy lit jelly topped with a collection of silver branches and snow covered branches all with twinkling lights, fabulous plumes of Phalaenopsis Orchids and strands of jewels completed the designs

On either side of the fireplace stood two pedestal stands topped with two of the tall frosted fairy lit vases

The Registrars table design was dominated by two Pillar candles and two plumes of white Phalaenopsis Orchids, lots of lovely Avalanche Roses and elegant Euphorbia Fulgens all trailing over the front of the table creating a perfect centrepiece

The Groom's Mum was wearing a delicate corsage of ivory Rosebuds on her epaulette and a beautiful Avalanche Rose in her hair

The adorable little flower girl carried a magic wand surrounded by Orchids, Roses and Bouvardia

The Bridesmaids looked absolutely stunning in their Pewter gowns carrying bouquets that matched the Bride's bouquet perfectly

Each Bridesmaid's Bouquet was a collection of Phalaenopsis Orchids, Arabicum Chincherinchee, Silver Grey Albiflora, Eryngium, Bouvardia, Roses and a collection of silver grey foliages

Maxine Molin Rose sounded exquisite on the harp

The Great Hall at Mains looked as magical as ever!

We had loads of fun planning the flowers for this wedding, Zoe and her gorgeous Mum & I enjoyed some great meetings, we even lit candles and planned evening appointments in order to create the right atmosphere for this twilight wedding day, I will, I know, miss these two lovely ladies, but for now lets enjoy a very beautiful wedding day, seen through the lens of a florists camera!

Zoe's Vintage Christmas wedding bouquet, a sumptuous collection of fragrant blooms (It was going to be dark so the flowers needed to be scented rather than seen) deliciously perfumed Lily of the Valley, the Spring scent of Paper Whites, Fragranced Norma Jean Roses, Christmas Roses, Amnesia & Snowflake Roses, Classic Hydrangeas, Skimmia, Eucalyptus, Thalaspi, and Stephanotis were gathered together in a natural yet elegantly voluptuous posy of seasonal floral fragrance.

We headed off to one of my all time favourite venues the spectacular The Great Hall at Mains, the outside light was beginning to dim and a warm, cosy candlelit wedding ceremony was getting ever closer, we put the finishing touches to our designs and illuminated all of the candles

The Registrars table was draped in a garland of fragrant herbs, sweet scented blooms and illuminated by crystal candlesticks, the perfect spot for signing the register

Two silver candelabras surrounded by a garland of fresh flowers were stood on stone columns framing the fireplace where a huge fire blazed enhancing the cosiness and welcome that greeted the guests

The aisle was lined with candlelit hurricane lamps and fresh fragrant Rose Petals

Each alternate chair lining the aisle had an exquisite little posy of fresh Roses, Bouvardia, Thistles, Hydrangeas and Wax Flower Blossom attached to the Chair Dressings provided by the great folks at Creative Cover Hire
