Gemma and Kevin's wedding at East Malling Church

Well it was tears all around this weekend when I delivered the flowers to Gemma...had me going too!  Gemma was so excited about seeing her flowers and it was such a striking bouquet, that it had everyone exclaiming over it.  Gemma is a tall lady and was to wear a stunning full dress, hence we couldn't provide a small hand-tied bouquet could we.....no, it was a 2.5 foot long shower bouquet instead.  We used a wide range of soft, romantic, English country garden type flowers in shades of ivory, purple and with a hint of strong pink to match the bridesmaids' sashes on their dresses. 

Gemma's lovely bouquet included Gletsjer and Dolce Vita roses, spray roses, lisianthus, flowering mint, campanula, larkspur, chincherinchee, freesias, peonies, bridal gladioli, ivy and asparagus fern.  We designed the bouquet to have a lot of movement and Gemma loved it....we're so pleased.  It will look so much better in Gemma's hands against her dress, but in the meanwhile, here are some of our photos.



Her bridesmaids' bouquets were mainly ivory with a hint of strong pink which we brought in using the bi-coloured Dolce Vita rose and via the organza ribbon used to tie the bouquets.  We also provided a floral circlet for the flower girl to wear using spray roses (Snowflake and Mimi Eden), freesias, chincherinchee and foliage).


Kevin's buttonhole was the Dolce Vita rose along with asparagus fern and ivy, and the remainder of the main bridal party wore ivory roses with ivy, with the exception of the two gentlemen wearing kilts, for whom we provided buttonholes of chincherinchee and thistle.


A range of corsages were provided using orchids for the Mums along with spray roses.  For Grandma, we used spray roses and freesias, for the Aunties we used spray roses, and for others we provided chincherinchee corsages along with fern.  We also provided thank-you bouquets (no photos - sorry!) for the Mums and a birthday bouquet for Grandma....what a way to celebrate your birthday!


All in all a lovely wedding for a lovely family and we hope they had the very best day.
