Continuing on the aubergine and purple colour scheme, we provided the flowers for Vivien and Justin at Cooling Castle Barn last week. Whilst the bridesmaids were wearing the aubergine / purple dresses, Vivien and Justin wanted to keep the flowers largely ivory and keep them simple, elegant and a little more natural for the tables.
We used solely lilies for the wedding, ranging from large white Oriental lilies, through the striking bi-coloured Picasso calla lily, ivory Avalanche calla lilies and even the smaller Crystal Blush calla lilies for some of the bridal party flowers. We added a touch of willow and grasses to the table centres with just a hint of sparkle provided by the crystals on the grasses, and a touch of colour in the ribbon ties.
As Vivien and Justin had a circular top table, we provided a table centre like the remaining guest tables, but added calla lilies in to match the bridal flowers and to give an extra wow for such a special table.
For the bridal flowers, Vivien's bouquet was a contemporary, simple yet oh so striking hand-tied bouquet of Picasso Calla Lilies with just a few sprigs of steel grass, whilst her bridesmaids carried Avalanche calla lily hand-tied bouquets, again with a few sprigs of steel grass.
The bridal party flowers echoed the flowers used elsewhere with Justin matching Vivien with a Picasso Calla Lily and the remainder of the groom's party following the bridesmaids' flowers and wearing Avalanche Calla Lily buttonholes. The overall feel was clean-lined, elegant, contemporary and very coordinated.
Whilst we only got to see Vivien with her stunning hairslide in place and didn't see the finished look, we had insider information from Bows 2 Belles wedding cars, who told us how beautiful she looked on the day. We hope to see the photos at some point in the future.
