Wedding of Lizzie & Sam 7th August

This Wedding happened back in August but I didn't get any photos of it until one day the photographer walked in with some photos for me - sorted! The photographer was Helen Keast who is based locally in Loughborough & it turns out we have done quite a few of the same Weddings. Check out her website, shes very good & really nice!

Lizzie had a trailing hand-tied bouquet of white Peonies, Freesia, 'Akito' Roses & mixed Greenery with Hosta leaves. The stems were bound with teal coloured ribbon.
The six Bridesmaids carried a hand-tied version of the Brides bouquet.




Buttonholes of white 'Akito' Roses with Ivy leaves for the men & white 'Akito' Roses with white Freesia & Ivy leaves for the ladies.



Lizzie's Flower Girl carried a Wand made using a white 'Akito' Rose with tiny Hosta leaves around the outside & finished with teal coloured ribbon to match the other bouquets.


All the flowers in their delivery box.

Wedding of Kayte & Justin 17th December

Today was our last Wedding of 2010. Even though it was the end to this years Weddings, it was a new colour theme for a Christmas Wedding & a new venue to explore!
I was getting abit worried at the beginning of the week when I kept hearing major snow was forecast but I think Leicestershire & Derbyshire were the only places in the UK that didn't get any!
The Wedding was held at Breadsall Priory near Derby. A beautiful venue with lots of grounds.
Buttonholes of white 'Akito' Roses with Ivy leaves & a sprig of Spruce.

Justin's Buttonhole was a white 'Akito' Rose with blue Thistle, Ivy leaves & Spruce.


Kayte's hand-tied bouquet of white Akito' Roses with dyed blue Roses, blue Thistle & Spruce (as it was the week before Christmas!). I added a few pearls amongst the flowers to make her bouquet more special than the others.



Bride & Bridesmaid bouquets.

The three Bridesmaids carried smaller versions of Kayte's bouquet & didn't have the pearls.

The stems were bound with a dark blue ribbon to match the colour of the Bridesmaids dresses.


I've never really been a huge fan of the blue Rose & I'm always abit wary when Brides mention them but I think they look great with the white Roses, Thistles & Spruce.

Top Table/Ceremony Table arrangement of Spruce, Ivy, white & blue Roses with blue Thistles.

On the guest tables, Kayte wanted a Goldfish Bowl filled with Holly, Ivy, blue Roses & Thistles with a chunky Church candle in the centre.

The table runner & crackers matched the blue theme.



The sunshine was beaming in through the windows & had a lovely affect on the Vases.

The view from out of the reception room window over the Hotels grounds, it didn't actually snow but the frost looks like it did!

Huge congratulations to Kayte & Justin & I hope they had a fab day.
