When we heard about Laura and John's lovely fresh lemon and pale pink theme, we knew this was going to be a lovely wedding. They also loved roses and orchids, so we knew it would look very fresh and special.
Laura had chosen a lovely strapless ivory gown with detail and beading coming across the bodice and down to one side, so we decided upon a hand-tied quite compact bouquet to work with, instead of hide the detail. We chose Sweet Avalanche and Vanilla Sky roses along with lemon ranunculus for the bouquet and finished it with a ruscus collar.
Laura wanted to keep the bouquets for her bridesmaids to just one flower, so we use the Vanilla Sky rose with the ruscus. For her sister we used three of the roses to differentiate and finished the bouquet with ranunculus to keep it more compact rather than open.
For the boys we used a cymbidium orchid for John along with a lemon ranunculus, and a single cymbidium orchid for the rest of the boys. Dendrobrium orchids were use for the Mums' corsages along with spray roses and detailing to match their dresses. We then provided wrist corsages for John's sisters and a smaller corsage for Nan. We also provided thank-you bouquets to match the wedding flowers.
We welcomed guests to the very pretty church of St Margaret by dressing the front gate with a garland interspersed with flowers. We then added a pedestal arrangement inside the church and added roses to the pews. We finished off the interior with an altar arrangement using all the flowers and colours we were using elsewhere. With such a pretty country church in a beautiful location, Laura and John chose the perfect amount of dressing for the church and we thought it looked lovely.
For the wedding breakfast at The Tudor Park Hotel, we provided an additional pedestal arrangement to match the one in the church, as the ushers were going to transport the arrangement back after the service to be placed at the other end of the top table. The focus for the reception was the top table, and we provided a long and low central arrangement and then added a foliage garland interspersed with flowers to bring colour along the table.
We loved the fresh and pretty colour scheme and all the choices Laura and John made for their special day. We hope it was a perfect day for them.
