Michelle and Graham's wedding at Cooling Castle Barn

One of our weddings last week was Michelle and Graham's at Cooling Castle Barn. Despite the weather everywhere being misty, dull and damp, the skies were bright up at Cooling promising a lovely day. Michelle loves calla lilies and wanted them wherever possible, but decided wisely that we should use oriental lilies for the table centres to manage the budget better.

We used the lovely chocolatey Black Tie leaves throughout and I ended up spending hours removing the spines, splitting and rolling them....for some reason our other florists don't like doing this!! The Snowblossom orchids were also lovely, despite the fact that the first batch sent weren't Snowblossom at all!!! Just a little hiccup that was easily sorted before the big day.

Having had lots of exotic and structural flowers for this wedding, most of the weddings we have over the Easter weekend are focusing on spring flowers, with lots of iris, narcissi and tulips, so have a look back next week for a very different look.
