Chloe and Andrew's Middleton Lodge Wedding - Flowers everywhere, from kissing gates to fireplace

Hi all,

Chloe and Andrew tied the knot at Middleton Lodge in June this year.  Chloe absolutely loved the Lodge so it was a no brainer when choosing the location for her wedding day.  Middleton Lodge also holds a special place my heart as this was the location of the first Wedding Industry Awards that I attended as a fully fledged Campbell's employee, great night!  Anyway, back to Chloe and Andrew, the couple wanted a fun, informal and relaxed day which definitely reflected in the loose styling of the flowers.

For her bouquet Chloe wanted quite a wild, asymmetric design with plenty of texture and pretty trails.  The flowers chosen were green lisianthus, green bell, eucalyptus pods, hydrangea, lilac campanula, lilac freesia, spray roses, bloom roses and tanacetum. 

The bridesmaids had more of a posy design but with some some small foliage trails.  The buttonholes were somewhere in between a focal and sprig style which looked stunning and featured flowers from the brides bouquet.

The venue flowers were such a joy to design with plenty of incredible blooms everywhere from the fireplace to decorating a kissing gate, you name it and we put flowers on it!  So on that note I would say sit back, scroll down and enjoy!

Massive thanks to Hayley Baxter Photography for the gorgeous images.

Helen and Lex's Sheffield Town Hall Wedding - Bouquets and buttonholes

Hi all,

So T has been wearing her thinking cap again as we wouldn't want to miss out on gorgeous couple's like Helen and Lex who were only after a bridal bouquet and buttonholes. We have decided to go with a Friday collection service for smaller weddings.  This will be specifically for couples who want our gorgeous T's designs (I mean, why wouldn't you!) but don't want the whole works!  More details of this new service we be out soon but in the meantime please enjoy the gorgeous Helen and Lex's wedding.

For her bouquet Helen wanted a very meadowy, 'just picked' feel using a selection of smaller and larger blooms to create texture.  Helen gave T full creative licence one which is always great as it shows a real trust in T's ability to create something amazing!

This stunning day was also featured on Festival Brides blog which you can check out by following this link.

Huge thanks to Magda K Photography for the gorgeous piccies!

Hi all,

Next week I will be posting all of our Christmas Collection, what's available and how to get hold of it so keep an eye out for that one!

Again a huge thanks to all our followers and fans and a big shout out to Danni from Maytree Photography for not only coming out to show her support but for taking some pretty awesome photos too.  

Jen and Stephen's Dronfield Hall Barn Wedding - Friends, florals and rustic vibes.

Hi all,

Don't get us wrong, google has it's place and has brought us plenty of business but it is always great to meet our brides through word of mouth.  Our couples often find us through having done a friends or sisters wedding but we got introduced to Jen and Stephen by Jackie who is a regular attendee of our workshops which was really great as we have known her for ages, so it was really great to be a part of her son's big day last June at Dronfield Hall Barn.

The colour pallet was creams and blushes with a romantic, soft and pretty feel throughout all the designs.  For her bouquet Jen wanted the shape to be quite elongated so it pointed downwards when she held it.  The flowers included were peonies, lisianthus, astrantia roma, waxflower, lavender, spray roses, carnations, rosemary and eucalyptus.

The bridesmaids had similar flowers but in more of a posy style with the super cute flower girl sporting a dainty waxflower crown complete with her very own wand.  Buttonholes were kept to a rustic sprig style.

The venue was made complete with a really stunning flower curtain which you will see was lovingly put up by Izzy and T.  They are so cool to do and look incredible.

Massive thanks to Eve Photography for the gorgeous pics, we love them.

Ben and Lorelle's Millennium Gallery Wedding - Inner City Sheffield Chic meets Tuscany

Hi all,

Lorelle and Ben were married in April this year in an awesome Sheffield city centre ceremony at the Millennium Galleries followed by a reception at Trafalgar Warehouse.  These guys have already appeared on Love My Dress blog but we couldn't resist popping them up on our blog too as the couple and the flowers were just to die for!

Tuscany has a special place in Lorelle and Ben's hearts so therefore played a massive part in their day from the food (supplied by Silversmiths) to of course the flowers.  For her bouquet Lorelle wanted something very wild with lots of texture, for the design T and Lorelle chose red amaranthus (one of Lorelle's favourite flowers), olive foliage (in keeping with the Tuscan vibe), eucalyptus nicholii, two tone wax flower, berries, white/cream lisianthus, green bell and broom.  Lorelle also had a gorgeous hair comb which when T designed looked huge but sat so amazingly in the brides stunning hair.  The hair comb included flowers and foliage from Lorelle's bouquet so they complemented each other brilliantly.

For the buttonholes T used a sprig of olive and eucalyptus binding it together with twine.  Foliage is definitely a popular choice for buttonholes this year, especially given Pantone's colour of the year, and they look great.  The bridesmaids bouquets were a elegant design of broom, wax flower and a little foliage which matched the chair ends in the Millennium Galleries.

Massive thanks to Inner City Weddings and Events for introducing us to such a great couple and of course big thank you to Fiona Oliver Photography for the amazing images.  Scroll down and enjoy!

Charlie and Andrew's Cressbrook Hall Wedding - Stunningly simple with heaps of scent.

Hi all,

Charlie and Andrew got married this April at Cressbrook Hall in the ever stunning Peak District, how lucky we are to live and work so close to such amazing surroundings.

Charlie and Andrew were a super relaxed couple and had a really cool attitude to their day.  Charlie isn't really a fan of things matching too much so T really did have free reign on the floral designs however Charlie was really keen on having a bouquet with an incredible scent so the flowers and foliage chosen were a selection of spring flowers (seasonality is always important!), scented white narcissus, lily of the valley, freesia, tulips and ranunculus.

Bridesmaids were more of a posy style design with similar flowers to the bride.  The buttonholes were just the cutest, a small selection of narcissus with a little dash of foliage.

Massive thanks to J S Coates Wedding Photography for the great images.  Scroll down and enjoy!

Jo and Ben's Whirlow Hall Farm Wedding - natural vibes, milk churns and dirty dancing!

Hi all,

We cannot begin to tell you how many outdoor wedding we are getting asked to do now and by no means are we complaining!  The whole vibe of these days suits us down to the ground with huge displays of 'just picked' flowers and awesome bouquets, that's not to say we aren't partial to the odd warehouse urban wedding mind you.

Jo and Ben got married at Whirlow Hall Farm with a stunning outdoor ceremony performed by none other than Reverend Kate Bottley otherwise known as the Vicar from Gogglebox.

Jo and Ben wanted a very natural look for their wedding flowers with a very natural vibe and neutral colour pallet.  In keeping with the farm feel they even opted for milk churns packed full of blooms to decorate the barn.  Jo's bouquet contained white dahlia, sweet avalanche roses, jana spray roses, astilbe, white lisianthus, apricot lisianthus, white wax flower, dried lavender, green bell and eucalyptus.

The bridesmaids had a similar design to the bride just slightly smaller.  Buttonholes were kept to a sprig style design.

Also check out Nan at the end, I just couldn't not include the pics of her in our blog, not flower related at all, but what a legend.

Massive thanks to Joy from Unique Wedding Planning and Events for introducing us to such a lovely couple, always great to collaborate.  And also a huge thank you to James Stewart Photography for letting us have access to such brilliant pics.  Enjoy!

Frances and Rob's Wedding at Sycamore Farm Barns in Matlock - Rustic florals in the great ourdoors

Hi all,

Frances and Rob got married July this year at Sycamore Farm Barns in Matlock.  The couple wanted a very relaxed, DIY feel to the day and the venue, set up and styling did just that.  Frances and Rob got married on the Friday and had an outdoor ceremony on the Saturday which is something that is proving very popular with our couples. This lovely idea allows you to have the "wedding day" that you really want in a location of your choice.

For her bouquet Frances wanted a very meadowy 'just picked' vibe, with plenty of texture.  The flowers chosen were campanula, astrantia, wax flowers, thistles, green bell, aster, tanacetum, stocks, delphinium and lavender.

The bridesmaids had a posy of just wax flowers with dainty flower crowns to match.  Buttonholes were kept to a sprig design.

Venue flowers were key with jars, buckets, vases, watering cans, floral chandeliers and milk churns packed full of blooms with a long and low design thrown in for good measure!

We had a lovely e-mail from Frances and Rob that read like this:

"We would like to say a huge heartfelt thank you for all your hard work in preparing the flowers for our wedding.  We had so many compliments for our guests on your gorgeous arrangements.  You captured our vision perfectly and we couldn't have asked for more."

Thanks once again, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend you.

Best wishes

Frances and Rob"

July Highlights - Wedding Flower Ideas

Hi all,

So for this week's blog I thought I would put together our July highlights.  We were so busy last month designing for so many glorious weddings I wanted to put something together that would include many of them and offer you ideas and inspiration for your big day, however, if you are already married you can still enjoy all the floral pretty and maybe relive some of your memories!

This blog will give you a good idea of what is in season this time of year and how unique every wedding always is and can be.

Bouquets.  Whilst classic posy style designs are still a popular choice with brides for bridesmaids,  brides are often opting for a larger, more asymmetric look which is T's forte and we just can't get enough of them.  The lovely thing about these designs is they lend themselves well to either being completely wild but can be reigned in a little to create a more compact and structured look.
