Did anyone see the first in the new series of Celebrity Wedding Planner on Channel Five last week? If so, you'll have seen some of our flowers!! John and Nina were the celebrities planning a Kent wedding and the bride and groom went to Frasers Barn to look at what would have been their perfect wedding venue. As is the case on these kind of shows, the celebrities chose somewhere else for the big day, but the happy couple were able to see what a fab venue Frasers Barn at Coldharbour is, and how it would have been perfect for them.
To show it off to it's best, we dressed the marquee, ceremony barn and bar with loads of lovely flowers. We didn't konw the bride and groom loved black and white, so we decided to go for pale pinks, blues, greens and lemons to show how summery it can all look even on a less than sunny winters day.
For the marquee, we used tall elegant candelabra interspersed with low mixed vintage style vases. We added crystals to the candelabra and to the tables and it looked gorgeous. We also added low candelabras to the side tables. All were finished with the gentle flicker of battery operated candles.
We added a wishing tree to an occasional table, a floral cake plate in the entrance, and vases on the coffee table. We even welcomed the happy couple with baytrees dressed with organza ribbons and fairy lights.
We followed the vintage theme through to the ceremony barn, using a bird cage and teacups for the celebrant table.
For the trendy bar area, we decided to work with orchids and crystal globe candles for a slightly more contemporary style. Frasers Barn is such a flexible venue and lends itself to both contemporary and vintage styles...not many places you can say that about.
It was great to see our flowers featured during the Frasers section and it made the long day worthwhile (who would believe how long it takes to film less than two minutes air time!). Hopefully you all loved the venue and the flowers and we'll be able to create our own "celebrity wedding " for you.
