Bouquets, buttonholes and table decoration inspiration
We just love helping our brides to decide on styles, colours and seasonal flowers to work perfectly with their theme, dress and the vision they have for their wedding day. Every Bride we meet is different and so every bridal bouquet and co-ordinating wedding flowers we design is unique - it is made with love, care and experience which results in you getting the flowers you've always wanted.You'll recognise our design style, though, it's soft, delicate, pretty, romantic and always beautiful. We work with the seasons, not against them, and buy British wherever possible. To help you choose your favourite designs we regularly put together our very own style guide Inspire - why not download our latest issue?
In the meantime, we update our portfolio regularly - here are some of the designs we've created for our happy Brides very recently ...
Bouquets
This is me, on my wedding day! I made my bouquet of fresh whites, creams and greens using hydrangea, sweet peas, peonies, 2 kinds of roses, freesia, trachelium, pittosporum and dripping with pearls!

Buttonholes
My buttonholes tend to be quite unisex as I'm finding that more and more Brides are asking for a ladies buttonhole, rather than a corsage - here's a few recent designs:
Yellow rose with fun co-ordinating striped blue and yellow ribbon, forysthia and eucalyptus
A pretty pink rose, and spray rose ladies' buttonhole finished on the natural stem and bound with organza ribbon
A sweet little aster buttonhole - this has proved really popular on my facebook page!
Bluebells, cornflower, lilac and grasses finished with a grey raffia bow
Blue hydrangea
A tiny replica of the Bride's bouquet
White rose with lavender for the men and bluebells, tiny white roses and lavender for the Ladies
White lilac and pussy willow
White lisianthus, jasmine, clematis seed pod bound in a criss-cross with satin ribbon
Pansies and lavender
A vintage-inspired red rose
Thistle and eucalyptus with bright blue ribbon
A creamy Vendella rose with ivy
Table Decorations
Table decorations can come in all kinds of shapes and sizes - and so they should as they need be styled to suit not only your theme, and colours but also the setting or venue you've chosen for your wedding day.
Here are just a few of my most recent designs:
A really sumptuous design of pastel roses - suitable for a ceremony table or top table
A very pretty, natural jug design of blues and violets - featuring gorgeous delphiniums
A cute little vintage-inspired bowl of roses, astrantia and viburnum opulus
A lovely seasonal arrangement of dark lilacs and pale lilac roses - this would look great somewhere high up like a mantel piece
