Comment   

Nicole was recommended to me by a lovely friend of mine. She just wanted bridal bouquets and a few buttonholes in corals and ivory. 

This is such a pretty colour scheme and one you should consider if you are still trying to decide for a summer wedding.

The bridal bouquet was a mix of ivory hydrangea with coral calla lily, Miss Piggy roses, apricot eustoma, alstroemeria and carnations with a little Pistachio foliage through the flowers.

The two adult bridesmaids carried a bouquet of ivory hydrangea, Miss Piggy roses, cream eustoma and apricot alstroemeria with foliage.

The 3 bouquets all together. The bridesmaids are more ivory as they were wearing coral dresses.

The lovely flower girl carried a basket of flowers from the bridal bouquet.

Baskets are a great option for your little ones to carry, sturdy enough to withstand a little ones energy but light enough for them to carry.

The groom wore a double buttonhole of an ivory carnation and Miss Piggy rose with pistachio foliage.

The other groomsmen wore single rose buttonholes.

Comment   

Stoke Rockford Hall was the setting for Emily and her groom's wedding.

The ceremony was in the gorgeous orangery, with its full length windows, it is such a light space and with views across the gardens it makes for a fantastic summer venue.

The ceremony table design was a long and low mix of coral and ivory gerbera with the lovely Miss Piggy and ivory roses, gyp and mixed foliage.

This was later transferred to the top table for the wedding breakfast.

C/o Mark Pugh 

The wedding breakfast was held in the library. 

On the guest tables Emily had chosen the small candelabras. Ivory candles were set amongst a mix of gerbera and roses in coral and ivory with gyp.

This really is a superb venue. There is so much going on around the room that these small displays work well and are not fighting with the room.

The chairs were to be transferred to the library from the ceremony whilst the photos were being taken.

If you are looking at Stoke Rockford Hall as your wedding venue or are getting wed at another grand venue along these line please get in touch to see how we could style your day.

These candelabras can be hired with or without flowers (candles provided) and can be delivered straight to your venue and collected the next morning or you can collect from The Studio and hire for 3 days and then return them. T&C's apply.

Gerbera wedding flowers

Comment   

When I first met Emily we talked through what she might like in her bouquet and we went through photos of what she described to me. However on looking through she kept picking out images with gerberas in, these were not in her brief, at all. On further discussion it transpired that other florists had warned her off gerbera as not suitable for weddings and in particular bouquets!! I hear this a lot...... I am here to tell you they work fine. Yes they are not the longest lasting flower out of water (neither are some of the other popular wedding flowers) but treated well (a florist should know) they will last the day out. 

They are probably my second biggest ask after roses and I feel they work perfectly well for all your wedding designs.

Emily's bouquet was therefore her favourite flower, gerbera. We did struggle to match the colour, coral can be difficult as there are not the same amount of varieties as say pink but we got there in the end and these were gorgeous blooms.

To support the heads they were given a collar of salal and the heads each had a diamante pin to add sparkle.

The three bridesmaids who wore full length coral dresses carried a mix of ivory and coral gerberas.

All bouquets together

The flower girls carried a single coral gerbera with ivory ribbon trails and with the stems completely wrapped for little hands.

The groomsmen each wore a germini buttonhole with a salal leaf

and the ladies wore a buttonhole of a germane, gyp and mixed foliage.

All our buttonholes are delivered on a board and may be labelled if required. This helps the venue staff when dishing them out to guests.

These photos were kindly given by Emily's photographer Mark Pugh. To see more of his work click here

If you love gerbera and would like them for your wedding flowers please get in touch today to book a consultation. We are always happy to use this gorgeous bloom either on it's own or with others.

The ceremony and reception flowers will be here tomorrow.
