Chloe and Ian's recent wedding at Eastwell Manor featured ever popular old English style flowers in dusky pinks and ivories.  They wanted a vintage accent to the wedding, but instead of mismatched vases it was "time for tea" all round with tiered cake stands being the order of the day.  In the beautiful surroundings of Eastwell Manor, the colours and flowers looked as though they were made for venue and with the stunning gown chosen by Chloe, it really was a wonderful day.

Chloe's gown was a very fitted dress with a fabulous train which suited her figure perfectly.  It had beautiful ivory lace over the top and Chloe finished it with a full length veil from the back of her lush dark hair.  We have been lucky enough to be given some photos to use by their photographer Darryl Curcher and hence you can see how gorgeous Chloe looked (and not forgetting the dapper Ian).

As Chloe and Ian wanted a vintage feel to their wedding we chose fabulous Cezanne, Amnesia and Vendella roses along with bouvardia and trachellium.  We decided on a hand-tied bouquet for Chloe and wrapped the stems in a vintage doily finished with varying sized pearl headed pins.





For her bridesmaids, we also provided hand-tied bouquets of Vendella and Cezanne roses along with trachellium and bouvardia.  They all looked so glamorous!  The Flower Girl carried a single Cezanne rose surrounded with bouvardia and trachellium wrapped in organza and finished with a bow.  Very pretty and soft.

For the boys we provided rose buttonholes with clusters of trachellium, with Ian wearing an Amnesia rose to tie in with Chloe's bouquet and the remainder wearing the Vendella rose.  Mums wore pretty lapel corsages of freesias and spray roses and were given thank-you bouquets.





For the reception, Chloe and her family provided a range of two and three tier cake stands which we then dressed with a soft and full arrangement of flowers including roses, freesias, astrantia, trachellium, hydrangeas and soft foliage.













For the top table, we provided a range of vintage vases and containers all with flowers to tone with the guest tables. 










We also dressed the mantelpiece in a similar way which looked great with Chloe and Ian's Mr and Mrs sign. 



To give a hint of the wedding style, guests were greeted at the Rose Garden room door with a tableplan arranged on a wire mannequin.  Table names were tied on with ribbon and we dressed the mannequin with pretty clusters of flowers.  So eye-catching and unusual.





All in all you can see what a pretty wedding Chloe and Ian planned.  They looked stunning, and were so relaxed and happy.  We're so pleased we could be involved in their special day and wish them all the very very best in the future.  Thanks again to Darryl Curcher photography for the "people related" photos...we never normally get to see our brides in their beautiful gowns, so it is much appreciated.
