Epic Posting Alert!!!!!! Apologies in advance for the number of flower pictures included in this blog posting, my problem (if it is a problem at all) was that there were just so many exquisitely beautiful spring flowers at the most atmospheric venue "Browsholme Hall" with the most fabulous Bride & Groom Leanne & Zac that we just couldn't help ourselves and got a little carried away taking snaps of all the lovely flowers!!

We also had the great pleasure of working alongside some super ace wedding professionals not least the amazing team at Browsholme headed up by Rebecca & Josh, the fabulous Flossy & Leigh were in charge of Hair & Make Up, the exquisite gown was by Jesus Peiro from Lulu Browns, the lovely Jules Fortune Photographer was recording all of the magical moments, Sam Fitton Magician, The Word is Love, the team from With a Twist Catering and Dawn from Creative Cover Hire, all in all a star cast...

We first met up with Leanne and Zac over a year ago and had met them for an initial meeting at our studio, we met up a few times over the year at Browsholme Hall and then again at our studio with their fantabulous Mood Board which included references to Aston Villa Football Club and their gorgeous Bichon Frise Dog Daisy, it included the all essential costume information, a full cast list and all of the scene setting information. We made plans for a final get together to show them their sample designs just a few weeks prior to their big day...
Leanne's gorgeous sample Wedding bouquet included a heavenly collection of deep purple and nude Spring blooms arranged in a relaxed style perfect for a country wedding at Browsholme Hall
I included fresh fragrant Jasmine, Fifth Avenue, Memory Lane Roses, fresh Hellebores, Muscari, Hyacinth, Tulips, Lilac, Daisies (Daisy their pooch), Stocks, Thalaspi, Antirhinnums, Lissianthus, Anemones and a whole host of sweet scented Herbs
We made up some table designs too including a Baroque Candelabra and Top Table suggestions
An idea for some of the guest tables, posies of fresh flowers surrounding an illuminate Hurricane Lantern
At long last the big day arrived and Lily, Tom & I were at Browsholme Hall early so I took a few pics of Leanne's truly exquisite wedding bouquet, I placed it on the wall out in the courtyard at Browsholme Hall
We'd added a few delicious Sweet Peas to the combination of flowers we'd agreed on at the sample appointment
A beautiful Spring Wedding Bouquet in a truly naturally gathered style including a glorious collection of fresh fragrant flowers in shades of purples, Lilacs, Lavenders and greens; Jasmine, Fifth Avenue, Sweet Peas, Alchemilla Mollis, Lissianthus, Hydrangeas, Veronica, Memory Lane Roses, fresh Hellebores, Muscari, Hyacinth, Tulips, Lilac, Daisies (Daisy their pooch), Stocks, Thalaspi, Antirhinnums, Lissianthus, Anemones and a whole host of sweet scented Herbs
In the Bridal cottages Flossy & Leigh ' were doing a fabulous job of making gorgeous faces even more beautiful
We did the big bouquet reveal out in the cottage garden it was such a stunning day
We headed back to the lovely sun lit courtyard and lined up the boutonnieres ready to pin them on the Groom and his party as they arrived
The Boutonnieres included Sweet Peas, Muscari, Fifth Avenue Roses, Thalaspi, Jasmine, Daisies, Lissianthus and Skimmia in shades of Lilacs, Purples and Nudes
We'd created a super special Boutonniere for the Bride Groom Zac to match his Bride's BouquetEach Boutonniere had a special addition an Aston Villa Pin was attached
Chloe had made a rather magnificent wrist corsage for Marge the 'Best Woman', she'd included a collection of fresh Hyacinths, Hydrangeas, Anemones, Lissianthus, Daisies and Sweet Peas
The Leading Man Zac, Leanne's lovely Bride Groom was first to have his boutonniere pinned to his waistcoat
The super glam Best Woman Marge looked fabulous, she did the most amazing job of 'Best Woman' (I think every wedding should have one) she helped me to find all of the Boutonniere and Corsage wearers, they were plentiful!!! I am so grateful Marge xx
Lily & I continued to pin on all of the boutonnieres ensuring each one was positioned perfectly
Browsholme Hall's Tithe Barn looked fabulous bathed in sunshine
Inside the scene was set for the ceremony was set, sound and lighting in place...
The programme/order of service was ready
Our fabulous Baroque style Candelabras framed the start of the aisle and the head of the aisle their gentle candlelight added to the atmospheric shafts of light and the fairy lit sails

Massive Congratulations to Leanne & Zac from all of the team here at Flower Design Events
The guests were entertained by the brilliant Sam Fitton Magician
A transformation, some might say a scene change, had taken place in the Tithe Barn and it was now dressed for a magical wedding reception, the tables were dressed with a combination of high and low candle lit designs
The top table was dressed with a row of mirrors decorated with our miniature Baroque Candelabras and posies of fresh flowers and a collection of tea light votives
Our Baroque Candelabras looked magnificent on the dining tables
The Bouquets for presentation during the speeches were placed just behind the Top Table
Our work here was done it was time to leave the party in full swing, huge thanks to Leanne & Zac for choosing Fower Design Events to make their wedding flowers for them xxxx
