It was a full-on Christmas wedding for Ruth and Eddie, complete with Christmas trees, lots of lights, a spectacular red dress and actual snow! What more can you ask for for a Christmas wedding.
Having provided wedding flowers for Emma and Martin, friends of Ruth's bridesmaid Colette earlier in the year, we were delighted Colette contacted us to be involved in Ruth and Eddie's magical Christmas wedding. The theme for the wedding was Christmas, Christmas and more Christmas. Ruth's dress was truly spectacular....a fabulous red fairytale dress with applique and sparkle. It really is gorgeous and Ruth will have lit up the room when she walked in. Colette's dress was pewter and the lovely Flower Girls were wearing ivory with fluffy jackets. The colour scheme was thus set as red, silver and ivory, with plenty of sparkle and an overall festive feel.
For Ruth's bouquet, we designed a hand-tied heart shaped bouquet of large headed Avalanche roses, glittered ivy, hypericum berries, berried ivy, silvered birch, skimmia, holly and festive foliage. This would be perfectly offset against Ruth's dress, without covering too much of the detail.
For Colette, we provided a hand-tied regular shaped posy of Grand Prix roses, silvered birch, red hypericum berries, skimmia and silvered berried ivy with glittered ivy, with stems wrapped in pewter ribbon.
For the cute little flower girls, we provided a "wand" of Grand Prix roses, festive foliage, ivory fluffy feathers and crystals. And for Eddie, we provided an Avalanche rose buttonhole with berries and ivy, with the remainder of the Groom's party wearing Grand Prix rose buttonholes with berries and ivy. Eddie's Mum wore a corsage of spray roses and foliage with fuschia pink ribbon loops to match her outfit.
In the Village Hall at Kent Life, the arch was entwined with ivy and a few flowers and Ruth, Colette and Eddie put up Christmas trees to frame them taking their vows. The celebrant table was dressed with a large festive arrangement of roses, berries, gerberas, skimmia, pussy willow, ivy, ilex berries, holly and other festive foliage,all with a scattering of glitter and snow. Church candles were added to give a lovely golden glow. Ivy was draped along the chairs and the entrance hall had a festive candle arrangement.
Within the Wagon Store, the tables were beautifully dressed with sparkles, reindeer place names and a central festive arrangement of gerberas, roses, skimmia, silvered birch, pussy willow and mixed festive foliage. A further Christmas tree had been provided and the top table had been garlanded with red fabric and we twisted ivy along the top; the large table arrangement from the Village Store was to be moved to the centre of the table after the ceremony.
With snow gently blanketing everything outside, the perfect Christmas scene was set for a perfect wedding day for Ruth and Eddie. We hope they have a fantastic day and a wonderful time on their festive honeymoon.
