Gemma and James' wedding

This weekend we provided some lovely bouquets and buttonholes for Gemma and James' wedding.  They wanted a soft, romantic and instructured feel for their flowers which were all to be ivory and green with hints of black.  Anenomes were featuring in the stationery, and hence had to be included (despite the fact that they didn't want to face the chilly weather!)

Gemma's bouquet was a lovely spriggy and natural bouquet of ranunculus, bouvardia, ornithogalum arabicum, lisianthus, freesia, hypericum, paperwhites, trachellium and eucalyptus.  We wanted to use the stems as part of the design, and hence only lightly tied them with an offcut of Gemma's dress fabric and a piece of lace.  It was such a yummy textured bouquet, that we really didn't want to part with it!

For her bridesmaids, we wanted to follow the spriggy and natural feel but used the anenomes along with hypericum, lisianthus, trachellium and ornithogalum arabicum along with eucalyptus.  We tied these in ivory ribbon with a black bow at the top.

For the buttonholes, we used chincherinchee, ranunculus and eucalyptus for James and then chincherinchee and eucalyptus for everyone else.  Mums' corsages followed the theme using chincherinchee, hypericum, trachellium and eucalyptus.

Gemma was lighting her venue with candelabra for the reception and we think these pretty and slightly wintery flowers will have looked lovely in the candlelight.  Such a pretty wedding and so perfect for Gemma and James.  Probably amongst our recent favourites....but then we could probably say this so many times!!  Hopefully they were firm favourites with Gemma and James.
