Wedding of Helen Cross 6th December 2009

Today was the Wedding of Helen, I had been looking forward to doing her Wedding for a long time as the coloured combination & the choice of flowers were fab!
The Church ceremony was at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in Thorpe Hill, I didn't even know this Church was there, just tucked away behind some trees.
The Reception was then at Quorn Country Hotel so we had the job of moving Pedestals from the Church to the Hotel after the Ceremony.

The Groom's Buttonhole of a champagne coloured Rose with a Scabious Seed Head, Rosemary, Sprue & varigated Ivy leaves.

The Bridesmaid's Bouquets of champagne coloured Roses with Spruce & Rosemary running through the Roses. The stems were bound with silver coloured ribbon.

Helen's Bouquet of Champagne & Lilac coloured Roses, white Hellebores, Anemones, Scaboius Seed Heads & herbs. I also used Spruce for the Greenery as it was December.

Pedestals of white Amaryllis, Anemones, Hellebores, Roses, Mollucella & Greenery.

The lady at the Church who arranges the flowers had put an Amaryllis at the top of the steps & it matched perfectly with the flowers in the Pedestals - good guess there!

The Bride & Groom looking fab! Can't really see the flowers very clearly but I couldn't get any closer.

Wedding of Jenny & Dale 31st July 2009

Today was the Wedding of Jenny & Dale, they met a few years back when they both came to Loughborough University. When they decided to tie the knot they wanted to do it back where it first started. There Venue was the beautiful Prestwold Church & Hall for the Reception afterwards.

The Groom, Dales Buttonhole of a Champagne coloured Rose, white Freesia & looped Grass the match the other Bouquets.

Jenny's Hand-tied Bouquet of Mini white & cerise Gerbera, champagne coloured spray Roses, 'Poison' Roses, white Freesia & looped Grass around the outside. Her Bouquet was finished with white ribbon.

The Bridesmaids Bouquets of Mini cerise Gerbera, champagne coloured spray Roses with looped grass around the outside. I also managed to find some ribbon that matched the Bridesmaids dresses.

The Pedestal in the Church. In this I used white Delphiniums, cream Stocks, cerise Mini Gerbera, 'Poison' Roses, Champagne coloured Roses & spray Roses & Greenery.

The inside of Prestwold Church is really beautiful. It's a lovely little Church.

The Window Ledges were decorated with chunky Church candles, Mini white Gerbera & Ivy.

I did a large all round arrangement that sat on top of the font. I used white Delphiniums, cream Stocks, cerise Mini Gerbera, 'Poison' Roses, Champagne coloured Roses & spray Roses & Greenery.

Two of my artificial Bay Trees were placed outside the entrance to the Church & decorated with fresh flowers & ribbon to match.

The view from the Church of the countryside, it was a lovely day even though the sky doesn't look it!

The Bay Trees were decorated with white Mini Gerberas & Champagne coloured Roses & finished with the teal coloured ribbon which didn't want to stay as a bow!

I loved their cake, the card at the bottom says 'To Kenya' as this is where they went on their Honeymoon.

More photographs of the table centres!

The Tables were named after Halls at Loughborough University as this is where they met.

These next photographs are the professional ones that Jenny & Dale had. Their photographer was Danny Green, take a look at his website when you get a chance. There are some amazing photographs of nature that he has taken.
