We love Frasers Barn at the best of times and Liz and Neil's wedding was always going to look super stylish. Keeping all the flowers white / ivory with hints of silver and grey throughout lent a really elegant look to the day.
Liz's bouquet was a textured but very neat hand-tied bouquet of hydrangeas, large headed roses, freesias, stephanotis and with a light eucalyptus collar. It had sparkles added throughout and was kept to a sensible size as Liz is very petite; we wanted her dress to sparkle through and be accessorised not hidden by her bouquet.
For her bridesmaids, we decided to provide simple and pretty wrist corsages of roses, spray roses, freesias, eryngium thistle (Liz is Scottish and hence it was a natural link) and light foliage, with added sparkle.
For the boys, we kept to large headed ivory roses and eryngium thistle with eucalyptus, then added stephanotis to Neil's to tie it in closely with the bridal bouquet. We also added a beautiful silver plated boutonniere from Assuntina Oliva at www.diamondlovecollections.com Very distinguished indeed. A smaller buttonhole was provided for the Page Boy and a corsage for the Mother of the Bride.
The wedding ceremony was held inside the barn, and we dressed it with silver organza bows and white roses on all the aisle chairs, and then added a selection of vases to the celebrant table. We also added flowers to the table at the back of the room, to the bar and to all the outside tables to fully dress the venue. We then added baytrees finished with lights and silver trailing bows to welcome guests to the marquee.
We love the way that Frasers can configure their tables into a back to back "E" shape...it allows us to create a stunning centre line and then add additional arrangements to each of the guest tables. For Liz and Neil we decided upon the gorgeous crystal globe candleholders with candles through the centreline along with a range of lower arrangements all in glass, silver or mercuried containers. We used a range of flowers including hydrangeas, roses, spray roses, eryngium, stephanotis, bouvardia, dahlia, freesias and hypericum along with mixed silvery foliage. We added votives with long lasting tealights, hydrangea florets and crystal sprinkles along all tables to finish. Even though I say so myself, it looked gorgeous.
We also set up our wishing tree by the bar for Liz and Neil...we added the crystals and flowers and they provided their tags for guests to leave their messages later in the day. We can only imagine that the messages will have been lovely as it really was a wonderful day...when we left Liz was already looking stunning even though not dressed, and I know that all outfits were just so classy and elegant...the photos will have looked amazing I have no doubt, and I do know that both the bride and groom had a wonderful time. Hope you all enjoy it too!
