Wedding flowers at The Coach House Doddington Hall

Wedding flowers at The Coach House Doddington Hall

Comment   

Continuing our feature on local venues we take a closer look at our flower designs at the beautiful coach house at Doddington Hall.

The wedding ceremony that we dressed and styles was held in the coach house. The ceremony table was styled with a long garland style design to cover the front of the table.

It was filled with a beautiful array of pastel blooms including gerbera, roses, bouvardia, spray roses and lovely foliage.

This would later be transferred to the top table.

The beautiful chivari chairs on the aisle were dressed with our small hurricane vases filled with posies of daisies, hung with gorgeous satin ribbon which was tied with a bow.

For a more formal style wedding reception, on half the tables we styled glass cubes with calla lily, oriental lilies and curcumas,

and on the other half the low cylinder vases had a lovely display of oriental lilies and bear grass.

Not forgetting the coffee tables, with their own smaller take on the displays.

These are perfect as gifts for the significant members of your party.

If you prefer taller designs this pale pink and blue wedding was oh so pretty.

Our tall candelabras styled with taper candles, blue hydrangea and pink and white roses certainly add height to the designs

While on the other tables pretty flower balls stood atop our tall conical vases.

For a simpler style, jam jars with a single delphinium  and gyp may be more your look. 

Beautifully simple yet very effective.

Back to the country style, zinc jugs filled with beautiful mix of pastel blooms.

To jazz up a door way or corner we have bay trees to hire

or perhaps something more flowery and a pedestal filled with white and cream blooms.

Having welcome boards that just need a flowery touch? we can accommodate with a few blooms and lots of trailing foliage

Also make sure the sweet cart doesn't miss out.

The coach house is a beautiful space perfectly decorated so you can add your own style.

Are you getting married here, or at another similar location? We would love to hear your wedding plans and in particular your flowery dreams. Let us help you create your perfect displays - 

book a consultation and start the ball rolling today.

Happy planning

Comment   

The second venue I am featuring is the Gorgeous Dower House Hotel at Woodall Spa. Another venue that goes above and beyond to help suppliers and it is always a pleasure to visit Ann and her staff. A gem of a venue, it may be a busy hotel but you would never know when holding your wedding here as it is so peaceful.

For starters the gardens are glorious in the summer and should you want an outdoor ceremony you can say your vows under this stunning arbour. Let us dress this for you with a garland either of foliage like this all eucalyptus design

or with a mix of flowers and foliage. Here we have stunning hydrangeas, roses and peony with mixed foliage.

Set under the lovely weeping willow certainly gives it a fairytale setting.

Relax straight after your vows at these gorgeous tables and adorn them with jars of blooms from your reception designs.

Add in a flowery entrance display to lead your guests to their seats

Once inside there is a lovely bar area with comfy seats for those wishing a quiet space especially later on in the day. Again adorn these with displays such as bird cages

jam jars

or posies giving a glimpse of what are to be the main displays for your reception.

Make full use of these and give to special guests as a moment of your wedding.

Whether you are bringing pedestals from your church service or wanting to add taller displays around the room, there are plenty of spaces available.

The top table has many options. From the popular long and low design, complimenting your bouquet

to foliage runner for a sweetheart table

or mixed jars of special blooms the full length of a traditional top table.

Whatever your style we can advise and inspire you to the right displays.

Pew ends can be brought and hung on chair backs

Then on to the guest tables. Although the room has a certain style, I have set up lots of colours and designs and all work well within the room.

The best type of style is country garden, it features so easily within the hotels setting. These jars of seasonal country blooms from a May wedding in mixed pastels along with log slices and moss numbers bring the outside in.

Another May wedding of pinks, jam jars of seasonal flowers and candle.

Purple bird cages

Glass cubes of lots of foliage with orchids and peonies add a touch of glamour to the room.

Or the most elegant setting I have created at this venue. The beautiful stunning crystal chimney candelabra with a mass of purple, lilac and ivory flowers.

The room looked brilliantly elegant when all the candles are lit and flowers placed.

The top table joined in with a low candelabra at each end

The Dower House looking simply stunning, one of my favourite ever set ups.
