Anyone for gardening

.

The flower ladies daughter was married last week everything was very exciting.  The venue:  the spectacular and very beautiful Tree House in the grounds of The Alnwick Garden in Northumberland.
It is a magical place it even has fairies which can be seen if you believe.
This was the sight that greeted the guests as they walked from their cars a fragrant wheel barrow filled with herbs and a little ivy.

A little contempory style

A little bit of autumn with rich tones of orange and purple.  Gladioli, beech leaves, bronze Chrysanthemum and Dahlia

Contorted Hazel and little willow just added to finish.

Newton Hall

A new venue for Northumberland once again on the coast with access to the beach Newton Hall with its wood floors and stripped wooden tables has an eclectic mix of styles.  There is a gorgeous Orangery used for the ceremony and the wedding breakfast.

A little mix of summer flowers Freesia, Peony, David Austin roses, Lisianthus and Astilbe.
A mix of tin Jugs, cut glass and decorated jam jars, each table is different

The flower ladies have been a little absent of late.  It has been a rather busy summer.  We have been to some fabulous venues throughout Northumberland and met some amazing couples.

The spectacular Kings Hall in Bamburgh Castle on the unspoilt Northumberland coast. A little arrangement!  Avalanche roses, Hydrangea, Astilbe and bleached wood with trails of ivy.

Brinkburn Priory

The weather has been kind to our brides over the last couple of weeks.  The flower ladies have visited Brinkburn priory twice in the last three weeks.  The Priory is managed by English Heritage and must be visited it is one of the hidden gems of Northumberland and most definately not a ruin.  www.brinkburnpriory.co.uk

Glorious sunshine for Doxford Hall

The flower ladies had an early start again this morning 5am making button holes and corsages for the wedding party today at the prestigeous Doxford Hall

sister Hotel to the gorgeous Eshott Hall.

The theme pale green and pink.  Our table centres were two fold, bird cages on some of the tables and candelabra on others.

The top table is a mix of our signature small vases our vintage style cut glass this time with a large central vase and finished with a tall bird cage at each end.

 

 

The wedding ceremony room decked out with white chair covers and pale green bows.  Bows tied to the side look very sophisticated both down the isle and around a table.  We have added the pale pink Sweet Avalanche and freesia to the ends of the chairs.

 

 

Spring wedding at Eshott

The second wedding of the weekend at the gorgeous Eshott Hall.  Tulips were the choice of our bride and groom.  The in season flower for spring.
Simple tall vases containing pink Tulips,of course every time we came into the room the tulips were doing something different (they do have minds of their own but that's why we love them).

 

Top table was just as simple using our selection of small vases of different heights and sizes all the way olaong the edge of the table.  The central arrangement in two oblong vases using the Tulips, sweet Avalanche and Memory Lane Roses as well as the sweet little pink Wax Flower.
