Carmen & Adam's Perfectly Vintage Wedding at Plum Park

I'm thrilled to be able to show images from this beautiful wedding at Plum Park Hotel in Potterspury, near Towcester.
Carmen and Adam opted for a perfectly vintage theme, lace, pearls, bunting, blush pinks and creams and soft foliages.

Carmen carried a teardrop bouquet, with trails of Ivy and Thlespi, focussing on blousy blooms of Sweet Avalanche and Vendella Roses, champagne Eustoma and garden style flowers such as Ammi.
The bridesmaids wore pale/mint green full length dresses and carried posies of blush pink and cream Roses.

The tables were decorated with vintage style pots, filled with Roses, Hydrangea, Eustoma and foliages.
Carmen and Adam's Top Table displayed vintage jars, vases, tea pots and cups, with small clusters of flowers, to compliment the overall theme of the day.

The photography has a distinctly vintage finish too - beautifully taken by the talented Victoria Kate of Tawny Photography.

Nichola & Rich, Notley Abbey Romance

A gorgeous day for Nichola and Richard, back in April.
The colour of the day was purple but to keep things light and airy, the main flowers were ivory, with hints of purple to tie in the theme.
The heart on the main door was one of the things Nichola had her heart set on (excuse the pun) and rightly so, as it really did get noticed as the guests arrived.
The table centres complimented the beautiful barn at Notley and gave interest across the room.

Thank you to Mike Garrard photography for the beautiful images!

Nichola's bouquet was made up of Anemones, Ranunculus, Tulips, Gelder Rose and purple Eustoma.
The bridesmaids carried posies of white Tulips for a perfect contrast against the bright dresses.

Enjoy.

Wedding shoots with Aspire Photography Training and Kate Hopewell-Smith

Blogging seems to have taken a backseat recently, but rest assured I'll be back with some fabulous pics of weddings on the next few months.

But just to share a little something...here are some images from recent shoots I've been involved in.

Kate Hopewell-Smith is, in mine and many others opinion, just about as good as it gets, when it comes to photography.
I was lucky enough to meet Kate when I was in the early stages of planning our wedding, I promptly booked her, pretty much the day after we met, as I was completely blown away by her work. 
Kate also trains photographers for Aspire Photography Training and I supply the flowers for the wedding shoots. I love being able to create something a little different, especially when it comes to buttonholes.

Here are a few images from shoots over the past year...

Louise & David's Sunflower Spectacular at Ashridge House

Louise and David asked me to be there florist and broke the news that they were to wed at the stunning Ashridge House. I was over the moon as Ashridge is a firm favourite of mine, not many venues take my breath away quite like Ashridge.

They opted for a theme of Sunflowers, the bridesmaids wore lilac dresses, so to bring this into the flowers we subtly added clusters of Lavender to the bouquets.

The staircase was dressed for the ceremony and silver candelabras on the table centres were the feature for the reception dinner.
