Today it's time to bring you Carly and Dave's lovely wedding at Rowhill Grange. Whilst we love all the soft, pale English style flowers we are using at the moment, it is so nice to take a step back sometimes and use more contemporary flowers in a striking colour palette. Back in the days when we had the shop, there was never an order of flowers into the shop that didn't contain calla lilies or anthuriums...our logo is even a stylistic set of anthuriums, but we don't get to use them much these days. We were therefore thrilled with the stylish requirements of Carly and Dave whose colour scheme was aubergine, white and lime green. Fab.
Carly looked absolutely stunning (great hair and make-up and fab dress). She decided that she wanted a shower bouquet, but in the European style which tends to be more stylised. We used Schwarzwalder and Picasso Calla lilies, whtie anthuriums, Greentrick and Black Tie leaves with China and Bear Grass. So contemporary and stylish.
For the bridesmaids, we designed hand-tied bouquets of Picasso Calla Lilies along with Greentrick and Black Tie Leaves with grasses and then scaled this down for the junior bridesmaids.
The boys wore Calla lilies buttonholes, with Dave wearing the Schwarzwalder Calla with Greetrick, Black tie and grasses and the rest of the Groom's Party wearing Picasso Calla buttonholes with Black Tie and grasses. We used mini calla lilies for the Mums with crystals and details to match outfits, and also provided one for Samantha.
For the celebrant table (to go in the gazebo), and then for the top table, we provided a long and low arrangement of calla lilies, anthuriums, celosia, greentrick and shamrock blooms along with palms, leaves and grasses.
We then decided to use mirrored cubes for the guest tables placed on mirrors. In each of the cubes we used Calla lilies, Anthuriums, Celosia, Shamrocks, Kermit and foliage to match the day. We hand-tied each of them and wrapped them in an aqua pack which we hid inside the cubes. This kept them fresh all day, and then ideal to give to selected guests, whose names were hidden on tags attached. We added the really cool tablenames to each arrangement. We then added a variety of sprinkles provided by Carly and Dave to finish the table. Beautiful.
And finally for the lovely cake made by Carly's Mum. Beautifully made and finished with a simple yet structural topper of flowers....and a lego couple! A fantastic wedding for a fabulous couple and their lovely families....would love to do it all over again.
