We love love love setting up wedding flowers at Rivervale Barn. Such a gorgeous venue, with (amongst other things) the most beautiful bridal suite!
Our beautiful Bride and Groom, Lindsay and Craig, also fell in love with Rivervale Barn and kicking off our wedding season in style they chose our favourite colour palette of creams, whites and greens with a big dollop of seasonal zesty green. Spring has definitely sprung with these gorgeous arrangements - I hope your with me on how gorgeous Lindsay's bouquet was!
the wonderful setting and lovely staff at Rivervale Barn and
we were lucky enough to be involved with their wedding flowers.
Filled with tons of seasonal ranunculus, gorgeous succulents, Akito roses and (another!) one of our favourite's ... guelder rose! The bridal bouquet was bound in a lime green ribbon to tie in with the bridesmaids dresses. Such a perfect mix, blending rustic elements with an elegant wedding.
Succulents we're definitely the star of the show! These little posies sat along the top table between vases to hold the bridal and bridesmaids bouquets. Its one of my top tips if you've opted for a long top table, use the whole length and if you can re-use your bridal and bridesmaids bouquets here with a few smaller vases scattered between. Its a perfect way to create those full looking tablescapes that you see on so many wedding blogs at half the price.
Rivervale Barn has gorgeous almond shaped tables, making it really easy for your guests to converse across the tables. Lindsay and Craig chose a central table centre designed to tie in with the bridal party flowers using lots of the super zesty guelder rose, white hydrangeas, white Akito roses, clusters of (ahem!) carnations and ranunculus. I love the clean lines of the cylinder vases for weddings, and you can give the arrangements away as gifts to your guests afterwards!
We received this wonderful testimonial from Lindsay just a few days after her big day. We loved arranging their gorgeous wedding flowers and can't wait to see the team at Rivervale Barn soon!
Today we are bringing you some vintage wedding flower loveliness from Louise and Andrews big day at The Mill House Hotel, Swallowfield.
You can't get much more vintage than these gorgeous Amnesia roses, complimented with ivory Majolika spray roses, scented eucalyptus, hints of lisianthus and scented eucalyptus. Louise really wanted the old Hollywood vibe to her day, and subtle pearls, wound throughout the flowers provided the finishing touches to her romantic rose filled bouquet. I love the subtle colours, they make the most perfect wedding flowers.
Louise (and family!) got to work crafting lots of jam jars for table centres, wrapped with pretty lace and adorned with a few pieces of jewelry. I love these little home-made touches and I have to say the attention to detail on these little jars were second to none. The jars were filled with flowers designed to compliment Louise's wedding bouquet, with vintage Amnesia roses, lisianthus, veronica, ivory Majolika spray roses and scented eucalyptus. I think you'll agree they looked perfect on the tables.
Congratulations to Louise and Andrew - we had such a ball making all your flowers!
