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.

Longhirst Hall

Thursday at Lonhirst Hall table centres on a short raised vase give a little impact to the table without being too tall for the guests to see over the top enableing them to chat to other guests on their table.  Flowers included ivory Freesia, pink double Lisiathus and ivy.  The table centres placed on a mirror polished of course.

A shower bouquet using white Calla Lily, Sweet Avalanche roses, ivory Freesia and pearls.  Sweet avalanche is a large headed rose pale pink with a faded outer green petal.  A bouquet of this style suits an a line skirt or a fuller skirt the bouquet needs to be a compliment to the dress and not overpower it.  We apologise for the side ways view.

TheTreeHouse.

 Our table centres in the Tree House at the Alnwick Garden.  The brides mother covered jam jars with string and pieces of ivory and white lace.  The flower ladies filled the jars with pink Astrantia, ivory spray Rose, white Lisianthus and white wax Flower for a garden look. The jars were all different sizes, some tables had groups together some individual depending upon the size of the table. 

 The stunning Tree House from the car park it is pretty impressive.  At night it is magical.

Just a couple of jars covered with lace.  A little green bells attached to this one.

The flower ladies assistant just testing out the rope bridges!  Its pretty chilly up there. 

Spring weddings

Another gorgeous spring wedding at the picturesque Longhirst Hall.  Wild flower looking bouquets of white Daisy, Feverfew, Veronica tails and Rosemary for the bride.  A matching tiny posy with a long grass stem for the little flower girl.













Our tables were decorated with jam jars and tins decorated with seed heads, brown paper and raffia.  Loose daisy heads and mini eggs decorated the table too.
The flowers were transferred to the evening reception where they were placed on mirrors and complimented with candle light.
 The guests were then able to take the flowers home at the end of the evening a card on each table invited them to do so. 





Bridesmaids posy using Green Bells, Feverfew, white Daisy, pink Phlox and purple Veronica tails. All tied quite informally with white raffia.
