TIMELESS ELEGANT WEDDING AT SHUSTOKE FARM BARNS – WHITE & GREEN BRIDAL PARTY BOUQUETS

White and green is forever elegant and always stunning for bridal party bouquets. The hand-tied bridal bouquet with a natural mix of roses, foliage and a mix of textured flowers including veronica with the stems bound in ivory ribbon created an elegant look to suit Laura’s dress. The young flower girl carried a whimsical posy of spray roses and the bridesmaids an elegant mix of green foliage and roses.

WEDDING CEREMONY – CEREMONY TABLE GARLAND AND OVERSIZED HANGING FOLIAGE RINGS

For the wedding ceremony Laura and Simon knew they wanted a natural look with a garland of foliage and flowers from their day, elegant cylinder vases with candles and definitely some over-sized hanging rings to bring the barn to life.

BRONZE, GOLD, GLASS & GREEN CENTREPIECES & VENUE STYLING

The eucalyptus theme continued into the beautiful signs and stationery Laura had designed. The overall look for the day was an elegant bronze, gold and green scheme with lots of detail and candlelight. We love working with our couples in the styling of the day and offering them the wedding look they love.

EUCALYPTUS FOLIAGE PLACE SETTINGS

A sprig of scented eucalyptus added to the place setting is an elegant and thoughtful touch for each guest.

BRASS FRAMES TO CREATE WEDDING SIGNAGE & TABLE NAMES

Laura chose brass frames from our collection of props to which we added her table names. It is all in the detail and this wedding was simple, elegant and with everything styled together.

WEDDING CAKE FLOWERS TO NAKED WEDDING CAKE

Spray roses and snippets of eucalyptus were added to the cake from Butter Cream and Dreams.

Thank you Laura and Simon for sharing your wedding photos and your kind words

“Just wanted to say a massive thank you for doing the flowers for our wedding. It was PERFECT and you’ve been super helpful from start to finish!

We had the best day ever and everyone commented on how beautiful the venue looked so honestly thank you so much! “

That is why we love what we do to here at Passion for Flowers.

Epic Barn Wedding with Lanterns, Candlelight & Organic Natural Flowers

November 8, 2018

Barn wedding ceremony lots of candles lanterns - wedding florist Passion for Flowers

We love travelling around the country to create weddings with stylish couples and jumped at the chance to decorate an epic barn for the wedding of Tiffany and Kris in September. A site visit is essential if we have not worked at a venue before, visiting together with Tiffany and her mum gave us the chance to see how we could bring this barn to life.

Tiiffany had clear ideas and was looking for a boho style wedding celebration with white, green, gold, blue and grey colours with a Cinderella look. As the barn is quite dark she was thinking of lots of candles, twinkling lights and white flowers to add light wherever possible. Well take a look a see how this was achieved.

Final morning preparations for button holes and corsages is always a calming task to carry out before the buzz of the wedding day.

BARN CEREMONY WITH CANDLELIGHT & ORGANIC FLORAL DESIGNS FULL OF FOLIAGE

A set up like this needs access the day before for the lighting to go up and the decor to be started. Organic foliage and floral designs decorated the beams and the ceremony tables to form a romantic backdrop to the ceremony.

BRIDESMAIDS BOUQUETS

The bridesmaids carried bountiful bouquets of foliage and flowers.

CEREMONY TABLE AND STAGE FLOWERS

The large stage was dressed with statement decoration including a mix of large lanterns, cylinder vases, rustic wooden tables, and cascading garlands of foliage and flowers.

ELEGANT WRIST CORSAGES

Tiffany’s Mum wore her elegant wrist corsage so well which kept her hands free for her reading.

LANTERN WEDDING CENTREPIECES

Candlelight was central to this wedding and we designed a mix of centrepeices all with a bronze gold look. These elegant lanterns were accented with delicate bronze glass bud vases with a mix of flowers and foliage from the day.

GOLD CANDELABRA WEDDING CENTREPEICES

Tall gold candelabra decorated other guest tables with a generous mix of foliage and flowers.

FULL-LENGTH TOP TABLE GARLANDS

The top table is key to any wedding celebration and is the focus of much of the day. For Tiffany and Kris we created full length top table garlands full of scented eucalyptus foliage, the softest blue hydrangea, spray roses and other blooms and textures from the day. A mix of glass cylinders and bronze gold lanterns were added to light the table and foliage chair backs to complete the look.

THE WEDDING CAKE DECORATIONS – HANGING RING & LANTERNS

So every wedding cake deserves to be centrestage and so we created a hanging ring to be suspended over the wedding cake surrounded by a masse of candles. This was the most romantic setting for Tiffany and Kris to cut their cake in front of family and friends.

Thank you so much Tiffany and Kris for allowing us to be part of your amazing wedding day. The photos captured by Ed Godden are simply stunning.

Longbourn Barn Kineton Wedding – Epic Summer Wedding & Lush Flowers

October 16, 2018

So we always love an epic wedding and thought you would love to see more of this amazing wedding at Longbourn Barn Kineton, one of our favourite’s of the year.

Longbourn Barn Kineton Wedding

We were thankful when Meg and her Mum came to meet us to ask us to create the florals for this gorgeous flower filled wedding. We visited Longbourn Barn together and fell in love with the setting. It offers a space where couples can stamp their mark on it for their wedding day set in the most amazing Warwickshire countryside.

Wedding Ceremony

Meg and Tom started their wedding day with a church ceremony with their beautiful daughter taking centre stage. The couple remained radiant and happy throughout their day and all the joy in their lives came together for all to see. We created a bountiful and full bouquet for Meg to carry.

Longbourn Barn Kineton Organ Room

Longbourn Barn has plenty of unexpected features, here the Organ Room is perfect for displaying the bouquets, in addition to her bridal bouquet we created bouquets for Meg’s 6 stylish bridesmaids. Pillar candles added to the romance perfect for this setting.

Wedding Gin Barn, Longbourn Barn

At our first site meeting we heard that Meg and her Mum were looking to create their own bar and had found an old pink van which they were going to transform into an amazing gin bar. Little did we know at the time how epic this transformation was and that it would be be featured on George Clarke’s Amazing Spaces. We were delighted to add some finishing touches to the look with the personalised sign we commissioned.

Longbourne Barn Kineton, Wedding Reception

In the run up to the wedding Meg, Tom and the assembled team of helpers worked tirelessly to ensure nothing was left undone. We just loved creating the florals for inside the barn including the table designs. The large barn could carry off large statement florals set on high rose gold risers. Elegant candle light was added to the tables and the round tables were set with lush florals around an elegant rose gold hurricane vase. Meg had collected so many gorgeous pieces and the geometric marble chargers were a great look for the tables.

This epic wedding was full of surprises and we knew of one little secret that the bride and her mum had kept from everyone. Meg had not one but two stunning wedding gowns and totally rocked the world when she surprised everyone when she walked down from the hay loft in her second amazing dress. This brought tears of joy to everyone’s eye and the party started in earnest.

Acrylic Wedding Seating Plan

The acrylic wedding seating plan was set as a welcome for guests once inside the barn and enabled everyone to find their seat with ease and style.

Meg and Tom

It was a pleasure to create the flowers for your wedding at Longbourn Barn, you rocked your day and are the most beautiful couple.

Love Karen xx

Blackwell Grange Summer Wedding – Passion for Flowers

October 1, 2018

Sacha and Stu planned a relaxing day for family and friends at Blackwell Grange. The bride wore an elegant gown with her maids in charcoal grey and vintage rose dresses. Stu looked splendid in this kilt and we introduced thistles into the bouquets and button holes as a nod to the tartan.

BLOOMS

The bouquets were loose foliage inspired bouquets with thistle, lisianthus,roses, veronica and wax flower for different textures and tones.

BUTTON HOLES

The button holes were a relaxed mix of blooms from the day with twine to finish.

ENTRANCE GATE FLOWERS – BLACKWELL GRANGE

Touches of eucalyptus were tied to the entrance gates to continue the relaxed, laid back look.

CEREMONY DECORATIONS – THATCH BARN, BLACKWELL GRANGE

The Thatch Barn at Blackwell Grange is a great place to tie the knot with its stone walls and wooden beams. The Barn suits very natural flowers and foliage and we designed relaxed arrangements in tall bronze vases to frame the ceremony and foliage garlands to drape the table.

EXTRA LARGE MILK CHURN ENTRANCE FLOWERS

Keeping to a very natural relaxed look large arrangements greeted guests at the entrance set in rustic milk churns.

CENTREPIECES – BLACKWELL GRANGE

The tables were dressed with a mix of centrepieces with natural foliage and flowers in bronze gold containers.

We loved creating the flowers for Sacha and Stu and being part of their wedding day.

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.

Niamh and Alex were a dream couple to work with throughout the build up to their wedding. They booked Oldberrow House in Warwickshire for a tipi wedding reception and laid back festival style celebration with family and friends. We knew we were in for a treat with their list of hand picked suppliers.

Foliage was key to the day and we decorated everywhere we could with a relaxed mix of foliage.

WEDDING CAR GARLAND – A MUST FOR SUMMER WEDDINGS

Gemma and I always jump at a chance to add flowers to a wedding car and the Fiat 500 was a joy to flower. The garland had to fit the festival look and feel of the wedding and be able to withstand the heat of the day and the trip from Oldberrow House over to the ceremony venue. I have to say it was one of our favourite parts of this amazing wedding and still brings tears to my eyes.

TIPI WEDDING RECEPTION – BRIGHT FESTIVAL SUMMER WEDDING

FLOWERS AMONGST THE DESSERTS ON THE DESSERT STATION

We loved receiving this note before Seonaid and Oliver set off on honeymoon.

‘Just a little note to say a HUGE big thank you for all of your hard work yesterday. What can I say……the flowers were simply stunning!

Our breathe was taken away when we had a sneak peak into the restaurant prior to everyone being seated. I know we discussed the brief, but how you interpreted it was totally beyond expectations!

Thanks again for contributing towards making our day simply perfect!’

The barn is a blank canvas, very rustic with a french feel to it as you drive up the driveway.

These are just a taster of the photos by the talented photographers.We cant wait to see the full photos including the epic look inside the barn using rose gold stands with statement blooms and epic top table flowers as well as lots of surprises.

With all our love and huge congratulations to Megan and Tom. xxx

Summer Organic Cascading Bouquet – Inspired by Sabine Darrall

August 7, 2018

‘Artists Days’ or any ‘Day Out’ is good for creatives and for the soul. I have long been an admirer of Sabine Darrall but had not had the opportunity to visit her at Lynne Down Barn in Herefordshire. The drive through the countryside gave me chance to unwind and I was all set for a great day out.

The designs we are often asked for by our brides are natural and cascading and it was lovely to spend a day with a small group of florists to exchange ideas and create some beauty. The cascading bouquets were so light hold and all looked very different. I choose seasonal peony and rose blooms and foliage much of which was locally grown. It is the delicacy of the trailing elements that helped pull the design together jasmine trails, scented honeysuckle, philiadelphus, grasses and ammi are firm favourites for a cascading bouquet. Ribbon trails beautifull finish off the bouquet and Elsie the dog was waiting to get in the photo.

Natural Flowers At The Ashes Wedding Venue – Florist Passion for Flowers

May 10, 2018

Hannah and Rishi were married at The Ashes, the most beautiful countryside venue, a place where you feel relaxed as you arrive and revived when you leave. We were delighted to be asked to work with Hannah and Rishi on their wedding as we had the pleasure of creating flowers for Rishi’s brother’s wedding at Shustoke Barns previously.

BRIDAL BOUQUET

The bridal bouquet was a mix of hydrangea and roses in beautiful tones. The whole look was chosen to remind Hannah of the family garden.

BUTTON HOLES

The boys sported just picked rustic buttonholes and enjoying posing under the photo backdrop with beautiful watercolour tones.

THE ASHES WEDDING CEREMONY

The barn at the Ashes is a warm and inviting ceremony space and we love adding a feature arch for the ceremony. Lashing of eucalyptus foliage, ivy and hanging amaranthus set the scenes with colours being added to tie in with Hannah and Rishi’s colours from the day.

FLORAL ARCH OVER DOORWAY

The floral arch proved popular as a photo backdrop for some fun photos on the day.

THE ASHES WEDDING CENTREPIECES

Hannah and Rishi had collected a lovely selection of antique vases, copper coffee pots and smaller bowls we incorporated into the table decoration with the addition of some crystal glass. Delicate stems of ivy and soft scented flowers were added bringing colour to the tables. I loved the old photos that Hannah had displayed in photo frames for each table.

COUPLE PORTRAIT PHOTOS AT THE ASHES

The couple found some tranquil spots for their portrait shots beautifully captured by Joanne Jacobs.

Thank you, Hannah and Rishi for sharing and for your lovely words. As always weddings and in particular our couples are the reason we love what we do.

“Looking through them reminds me of how beautiful you made our special day. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.”

Hampton Manor Tall Centrepieces – Gold Floral Stands & Tall Rustic Branch Stands

April 26, 2018

Looking for tall wedding centrepice ideas for your Hampton Manor wedding? Hampton Manor suits tall centrepieces. At the spring wedding fair we showed our two newest floral stands both of which would be perfect for Hampton Manor, depending on your style. This rustic branch stands would also suit barn wedding venues, or could be used as floor standing arrangements to frame your ceremony in The Birches and later used on the tables.

TALL GOLD STANDS

Tall gold stands are great for adding height and a WOW factor to a room. Here a lush arrangement with trailing foliage and a mix of scented roses, ranunculus, tuberose and tulips filled the room with scent and romance. The stands can be set out along tables or to form a top table arrangement. Smaller vases and candlesticks along the table finish the look.

TALL RUSTIC CENTREPICES – BRANCH STANDS

Tall bronze branch stands add an element of drama to the room, they suit relaxed mixed foliage displays with highlights of seasonal blooms. Here we added a mix of beautiful English tulips perfect for a spring wedding. These stands can be used floor standing at the entrance to a room, either side of the aisle or ceremony and later for the dinner.

Extra details are always appreciated a single stem to the chair and place setting is a lovely touch.
