Lavender and Lilac Roses & Peonies for Sarah & Barry's Beautiful Wedding Day at St Helen's Church Waddington & Eaves Hall
We have had the most lovely time planning the flowers for this beautiful wedding, we've enjoyed some brilliant appointments with Sarah & her lovely Mum Julie, we learned about their plans for a super stylish wedding day over at St Helen's Church, Waddington with one of my all time favourite Vicars Reverend John Brocklehurst and with the wedding reception at magnificent Eaves Hall the day was destined to be a belter, if all of that wasn't enough there was the most stunning gown by Augusta Jones from Elizabeth & Camilla at Mears Ghyll Bridal Rooms, Jo and Cass were doing the hair and Harley the make up, they had the legendary photographer Brett Harkness capturing all of the magic and they had the most wonderful fresh flowers...
We'd met up to go through this beautiful mood board, we talked about all of the plans in great detail, we couldn't wait to see the beautiful cake that Bride's Mum Julie was making
We met up again a few weeks before the wedding to present a set of sample designs, we'd made a sample Bridal bouquet which included a heavenly collection of Lavender and Lilac Roses with fresh Scabious, Peonies,Astrantia, Astilbe, Wax Flower and fresh Herbs and foliages
We tried the bouquet against the Bridesmaids dress
We made a sample tall table design for them to see
Posies of fresh flowers were designed to dress the Pew Ends

On the big day Lily, Tom & I headed off to Eaves Hall to present our Bride and her Bridesmaids with their Bridal Bouquets
I unveiled the box much to the delight of our Bride and her Bridesmaids

We'd surrounded Julie's cake with a plethora of fresh fragrant Rose Petals
Our work here was done but we still had to clear away and leave places exactly as we found them so we returned to Church to remove the arch garland and at 2am we were back at Eaves Hall where we dismantled the table designs, we watered all of the designs and left them all on the porch for the Bridal party to take home, it's all part of our services.
Huge thanks to Sarah & Barry and both of their gorgeous families for choosing Flower Design Events to create their wedding flowers for them
