Jessi and Jamie asked us to create a  ‘Secret Garden’ look and feel to the English part of their wedding celebrations. We loved coming up with ideas and working with this lovely couple to create their wedding look. It is so wonderful when our couples have confidence in us and give us comments like this:

“Thank you so much Karen! We trust you completely so  whatever you think would make the feel of it come alive works for us! “

THE BOUQUETS

Jessi carried a romantic white peony bouquet and for her maids a bunch of scented lavender keep the look natural and so so English.

HAMPTON MANOR WEDDING CEREMONY

CYLINDER VASE LANTERNS, BRONZE FLORAL STANDS & A DOG

Well we loved creating this look for this romantic look with cylinder vases down the aisle, bronze stands with natural arrangements including English Margaret Merrill roses, ferns, trailing foliage and clematis with simple bunches of English lavender to the chairs. Most of all we loved their beloved dog Oreo who stole the show in his bespoke waistcoat.

SECRET GARDEN INSPIRED WEDDING CENTREPIECES – MOSS, BOOKS & FERNS

So when your couple love books and especially the Secret Garden that gives plenty of scope for the most beautiful set up in Hampton Manor. Moss runners and books, delicate ferns in china tea cups and the most beautiful blooms created a gorgeous look and feel to the room. Jamie is one romantic groom and there was not a dry eye in the room when he surprised his bride with an interruption to the speeches when an amateur dramatic group began renditions from Les Miserables, her favourite musical. This was performed in front of her eyes and was one incredible surprise.

CHEESE WEDDING CAKE AND CAKE TABLE FLOWERS

The cake table was decorated with English lavender bunches, a mix of moss covered books and blooms from the day. Crystal decanters with scented peonies and grasses kept the look soft and romantic.

 EVENING TABLE CENTREPIECES WITH CANDLES

As the guests headed back to the room for the evening celebrations they were greeted by a change of scene with candlelit tables.

We are eternally thankful for the lovely couples who chose us for their wedding flowers and styling and to the venues we dress and of course the photographers who capture their days so beautifully.

Thank you Jamie and Jessi and all our good wishes for the next stage of this romantic story.

Karen xx
