Bridal Party Flowers

Charlotte and her bridesmaids carried bouquets full of colour and texture in autumnal shades. The flowers included scented garden roses, Dahlia, Phlox, Scabious, Rudbeckia, Cosmos and seasonal foliage including eucalyptus, hops, jasmine, honeysuckle and berries; Charlotte's bouquet was tied with a rusty orange flowing silk ribbon. The buttonholes were each unique, containing dahlias, eryngium, sanguisorba, strawflowers, bracken and seed pods. The star of the day, Charlotte and Mike's beautiful dog Ember wore a crown of foliage, fresh and dried flowers.

Ceremony Flowers

The outdoor ceremony space was decorated with large trees and abundant autumn meadows, which were moved to decorate the staircase following the ceremony. Down the aisle we tied bunches of bracken, grasses and berries to the end chairs to add colour and texture - these were taken apart following the ceremony and used to decorate the top table.

Reception Flowers

For the reception the ceremony flowers and trees were moved and repurposed. The round guest tables were decorated with abundant jam jars, candles, pine cones and seed pods. Edible flowers were used to decorate the beautiful three tiered wedding cake by Holly Miller.
