Autumn Rustic Barn Wedding – Blackwell Grange Wedding Florist

September 12, 2018

As the days are turning cooler I thought we would share more images of this beautiful wedding at Blackwell Grange. Last September Danielle and Lorance entrusted us to create their flowers and decor and we loved bringing everything together on the day.

BRIDAL BOUQUET – ORGANIC STYLE AUTUMN COLOURS

Rich autumn colours were added into the bridal bouquet design for this organic style bouquet with touches of astilbe, dahlia, roses and eucalyptus.

BRIDESMAIDS BOUQUETS – DEEP RED BURGUNDY & FOLIAGE

Plenty of foliage and deep burgundy red dahlias carried through into the bridesmaids bouquets.

The ceremony barn is a lovely setting for a wedding ceremony nestled into the countryside.

CEREMONY FLOWERS & DECORATIONS – BLACKWELL GRANGE BARN VENUE

Ceremony decorations included a mix of lanterns, stylish chair flowers and a fireplace decorated in colours of the day.

The top table is where all eyes are focused for a large part of the wedding breakfast to a long garland of lush foliage with flowers was a great choice. The backdrop was created especially for the couple with a romantic ring of flowers and Dani’s favourite sparkling lights and foliage added in.

FLOWERS FOR THE WEDDING CAKE TABLE

Ask your florist for vases for the bouquets so they can be added to the cake table display. I love the axe for cutting the rustic cake.

Danielle and Lorance, thank you for your lovely words.

‘We just wanted to a massive thank you for everything you did for us! The wedding looked spectacular and almost all of that was down to you! We loved absolutely everything it was perfect! You have been so amazingly helpful and are full of fantastic ideas! Continue to make people’s wedding days so perfect because you really have done something special for us!’

Outdoor wedding ceremony Birtsmorton Court Passion for Flowers Midlands

Amy and Alex were married at the lovely Birtsmorton Court and were so lucky to have their ceremony in the White Garden. This was a dream come true for them, Amy was really keen on using the garden setting, as we arrived to set up it wasn’t looking good but as we were creating the arch we just kept her dream in mind and all the guests joined them for this most romantic wedding.

This romantic bridal bouquet was scented and so soft with touches of jasmine, dusty miller and oddles of scented roses. The bride had the most amazing train ad veil which is captured in some many of these beautiful images.

Alex and the boys sported rose button holes to tie in with the bride and her maids.

Rustic Woodland Top Table Styling – Birtsmorton Court

September 10, 2018

rustic top table wedding birtsmorton court

The garden marquee at Birtsmorton Court can be styled for your wedding, as a regular Birtsmorton Court wedding florist we have decorated this marquee many times but this was one of our favourites. When your couple asks you for a rustic woodland top table we get excited, we have lots of woodland props and vases available for styling and loved creating this rustic setting for a spring wedding. Tree slices along the top table, terracotta pots and glass jars/bottles with blooms including roses, ranunculus, broom with ivy gave a soft and calming look to the room. Dotted along the table were various rustic wooden tea light holders and the table numbers were held up by tiny tree stump card holders.
