August Highlights - Wedding Flower Ideas

Hi all,

Can't quite believe another month has passed, we have worked on some awesome weddings and as always have loved being part of your special days.  I have put together a selection of stunning August designs to provide floral inspiration you but also we like to have a look through, think back and enjoy all that we have achieved and the wonderful people we got to work with.

Bridal Bouquets

This month we had a real eclectic mix of colours and shapes to our bouquets.  Last month was all about the asymmetric bouquet but this month we just can't call it.  This just goes to emphasis just how unique you all are with your ideas.

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.

Campbell's Flower School - Sheffield Workshops at it's Finest

Hi all,

So with our Spring/Summer workshops just around the corner I thought I would pop a blog post together featuring some of the amazing feedback that we have had from the lovely lot that come along to our classes.

It really is such a great evening, the atmosphere is always really great and T's floral knowledge will fill you with the confidence to go away and create something pretty special at home too as well as in the class.  Also I'm always on hand with the kettle on, this floristry lark can be thirsty work!

So here is what our clients had to say:

"I just want to say a massive thank you to you for your workshop tonight.  I have had a fantastic time and have already booked for the next one.  You are a wonderful teacher and have really encouraged me towards a career change onto floristry.  I am going to have a good look into courses but in the meantime I'll be booking onto all of your workshops! - Sarah P"

"I can't express how much fun I had with my friend Adele.  Lots of giggles and a very warm and welcoming environment.  I surprised myself with what I could create with the help of the fabulous Tracey and definitely want to come and do another one. - Sara"

"Alice and I had a great time and will definitely be trying to make my own wreaths next year.  Would also love to come to other workshops. - Jennifer"

"I had such a wonderful time and really learnt some great skills which I will definitely be putting to use in the future.  I am so pleased with my arrangement and was delighted with the materials on offer at the workshop. - Meredith"

"Despite feeling unwell I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed last night and was delighted with the finished arrangement having never done anything like that before! - Sarah"

If you are interested in booking onto one of our workshops then just follow this link.  We will see you there!
