Hannah and Tim's wedding was to be an elegant and stylish wedding with deep purple and ivory as the main colour scheme, which always looks gorgeous but when we had the opportunity to incorporate stunning seasonal deep purple sweet peas, it was always going to be lovely. It's also always lovely for us to work close to our home and hence providing pedestal flowers for our lovely Hadlow Church was really nice.
The flower choice other than sweet peas including Alliums, Picasso Calla Lilies, Vendella roses, bi-coloured Lisianthus along with eucalyptus and grasses. A very striking mix of flowers, with plenty of seasonal elements.
Hannah wanted a hand-tied bouquet to compliment her dress. We used a mix of roses, calla lilies, and sweet peas with foliage and although we are obvioulsy biased, we thought it looked lovely. Bridesmaids carried rose and sweet pea bouquets and the younger flower girls carried simple "wands" of calla lilies and sweet peas. Buttonholes and corsages toned and were very elegant. Mini calla lilies were added to the ladies' corsages, which looked lovely.
Both Hannah and Tim wanted the flowers to be striking, but not too over the top for their wedding. This held true for tablecentres and venue flowers as well and whilst wanting to dress the large theatre at Salomons appropriately, we didn't want to "overdo" it. We used tall lily vases for guest tables, and mini ones for the top table and added a single Vendella rose to the stems for guest tables for a touch of floral interest once seated, and then added full, yet not too large top level arrangements on each. Each sat on a simple mirror and was sprinkled with purple based crystals just to finish,
We heard the bells in Hadlow, but didn't have a chance to get a photo of Hannah and her bridal party, so are itching to see what we think will be stunning photos of a lovely wedding.
