Sam and Will got married at St. James’ and St. Paul’s Church in Marton and had their wedding reception at Sandhole Oak Barn, a gorgeous barn wedding venue in Cheshire. It was lovely working with them both to design the perfect decorations for their wedding day, and I also got to work with my good friend Francesca at The Cheshire Cat Cake Company who designed their beautiful wedding cake.
The colour scheme for their wedding was of ivory, cornflower blue and navy blue. The flowers we used in the bouquets and arrangements included roses, hydrangea, gerbera, antirrhinum, agapanthus, gentiana and eryngium thistle
The bride’s bouquet was a hand tied style with lots of different textures. We used a mix of ivory avalanche roses, delicate ivory spray roses, cornflower blue hydrangea, dark blue agapanthus and navy blue eryngium thistle, with eucalyptus foliage. The stems were bound with navy blue ribbon and finished with pearl headed pins.

To co-oridinate with the bouquets the Groom and groomsmen each had an ivory rose buttonhole with navy blue thistle and eucalyptus.

To dress the entrance to the church we placed a pair of bay trees decorated with silk ivory roses and navy ribbon bow.

For their wedding reception decorations we designed tall vase arrangements for each guest table. The arrangement of ivory and blue flowers featured tall willow branches with fun photos of the guests.

For extra decoration around the room we also provided cream birdcages filled with flowers. The two larger birdcages were displayed on wooden plinths either side of the window area.
