Roses

Long considered a symbol of beauty and love, roses figure into many myths and fairy tales. Romantic writers and poets have used the flower as a metaphor for emotion, beauty, passion and true love. An all-star in the world of weddings, the rose is far from boring, particularly when it comes to color—roses are available in solid hues and bicolor varieties—there are even striped and tipped roses as well. 



More than 3,000 varieties of roses are grown commercially, and many are available year-round and are surprisingly affordable. And though roses are associated with luxurious fragrance, not every rose is scented. Three main types of roses are most popular for wedding flowers: hybrid tea roses (the classic, uniformly shaped commercial roses generally seen at your local florist), spray roses (a rose with five to ten small heads on each stem and a "natural, garden-grown" look) and garden roses (expensive, old-fashioned varieties with bushy, open heads and delicious scents).

Pretty pink and champagne wedding flowers

Today we take a look at this gorgeous wedding of the lovely A and O from a few weeks ago in April.
The colour scheme was pink and champagne with roses, peony, wax flower and carnations.


We used a combination of roses, bombastic spray, garden and standard and along with the peony and wax flower the scent was divine.


The 4 bridesmaids carried smaller versions of the brides with more pink to stand out from their champagne dresses.


The stems were tied with blush organza.





The groomsmen wore a classic style buttonhole of a champagne rose with asparagus fern.
(This was the page boys mounted on to a safety pin)


The buttonholes and corsages on their presentation boards all ready for delivery.



The ladies wore a traditional style corsage in a mix of flowers from the bridal bouquet


All boxed up and ready for presentation to the bride.

Pink weddings are always a popular choice and peonies in particular are very popular. (Their season is from April to July)
If you love this style and would like to talk flowers then please get in touch in the first instance with your wedding date to check availability.
