Leanne and Jason's wedding at The Grangemoor Hotel, Maidstone

We've been so looking forward to Leanne's wedding.  She had a lovely elegant theme of midnight blue and ivory, with hints of dusky pink.  This colour scheme works so well in the Grangemoor and matched in with Leanne's bridesmaids' dresses.  Being a hairdresser, we expected Leanne's hair to look good...but it was absolutely gorgeous!  Charlotte at Urban Hair and Beauty in Maidstone had styled Leanne's hair and it was gorgeous.  We didn't notice she was still in her jeans when we took the flowers to her as the hair was so good.  Can't wait to see the finished look as I know the whole bridal party was going to look great. 

For Leanne, we provided a hand-tied bouquet of Vendella roses, with some Amnesia roses added to bring in the pinky colour and with eryngium thistle added througout.  We kept foliage to just loops of bear grass and added a midnight blue bow to the ivory wrapped stems to bring in the colour of the bridesmaids dresses.



For the bridal party, we used an Amnesia rose and eryngium thistle for Jason's buttonhole so that he matched Leanne.  We then used the Vendella rose for the remaining buttonholes and designed ivory and black corsages for Mums with slightly smaller all ivory corsages for Nan.






The Grangemoor looked lovely and elegant with the chair bows and all the butterfly detailing on tables.  As ever, everything was ready for us well in advance at the Grangemoor and it was looking immaculate...we were even given china cups and a teapot for tea when setting up.....not many places we get treated so well.  Leanne and Jason had paid a great deal of attention to detail with butterfly names on glasses, butterfly names for tables and butterfly chocolate favours.  Jason was even checking everything was perfect on the morning of the wedding before getting ready for his big day!  We kept flowers very minimal on the tables which worked really well with everything else....we used fishbowls with blue gel pearls and floated Vendella roses and eryngium thistles around a pink floralyte.






For the top table, we added a long and low trailing arrangement using all the flowers used elsewhere along with mixed foliage.



Finally, we dressed the cake with a topper of roses, thistles and grasses and added a further wired section of flowers to the bottom tier to balance the whole look.


We know Leanne and Jason will have had a brilliant day and we look forward to hearing more about it in due course.  In the meantime, hope you all like the photos.
