After: Lyn's wedding

One last wedding to show you and it's only a little one. I met a Lyn last year when she was helping to organise her daughter's wedding flowers. You may remember our beautiful bride Louise who was married in February? Well now it was Lyn's turn to get married.

When she was looking through my wedding flower magazine's trying to find something that Louise would like, she actually saw a bouquet that she loved! Little did she know at the time that she would be back to see me in a few months to order that bouquet for her own wedding.

This is the picture that Lyn wanted to base her bouquet on. She loved how different it was:


And this is how it turned out..... I probably should have taken the photo from the same angle as teh magazine picture above so that you could compare it properly

Bride Bouquet: posy of cream roses, cream kale and fuchsia feathers (Lyn's dress was fuchsia)

And she also had a couple of wands of pink mini roses made up for her GrandDaughters (so cute!):

It was so interesting to use kale in a wedding bouquet. Kale is also known as 'Ornamental Cabbage' and it has the same scent as a cabbage too. This is what they looked like before I stripped them back to put in the bouquet:

Lyn absolutely loved her bouquet! It was so great to work with you again Lyn. Congratulations!!

After: Elizabeth's wedding

Another wedding we had this weekend was for Elizabeth.

Bride Bouquet: posy of white roses, white tulips, hot pink gerberas, hot pink freesias, hot pink vanda orchids and privet berry (the photos of this bouquet just don't do it justice as the hot pink flowers were really vibrant and bold)

Bridesmaids Bouquet: the bridesmaids had an all white version of the bride (and they were wearing the fuchsia coloured dresses), posy of white roses, white tulips, white mini gerberas, white freesias, white singapore orchids and privet berry

Elizabeth absolutley loved her bouquets! It's so nice to be able to deliver something that the bride is so happy about and gushes over.

Congratulations Elizabeth! I hope you had an amazing wedding and I look forward to seeing some pics!

After: Jacqui's wedding

I love how Jacqui's bouquets turned out. She was after an unsrtuctured style and the colours she chose were so pretty together. I only have pictures of the bouquets to show you - but I'm sure by now you all know how my buttonholes and corsages look.

Bride Bouquet: posy of ivory roses, mauve roses, purple lisianthus, purple freesias, white freesias, mauve hyacinths, privet berry and dusty miller

Bridesmaid Bouquets: they had a smaller version of the bride, a posy of ivory roses, mauve roses, purple lisianthus, purple freesias, white freesias, mauve hyacinths, privet berry and dusty miller

Jacqui held her wedding ceremony in the cutest little church. It's the Holy Cross Church at Kincumber.

Church Arrangements: two tall arrangements were made and placed at the front of the church. They consisted of ivory roses, mauve roses, purple lisianthus, purple freesias, and white freesias

I hope you had teh most lovely day Jacqui! I can't wait to hear about all of the details.

After: Hannah's wedding

It was a perfect sunny day for Hannah's beautiful Hunter Valley wedding. Perfect!

Here are some photos of her flowers..... and there are lots of photos....

Corsages: the Mum's wore a wrist corsage of mini ivory roses

Ceremony: the wedding was being held at Peppers Creek chapel and The Barrel Room. We didn't have to do anything to the little chapel but it is too pretty to not show you... and it's the chapel I was married at 16 months ago!! The first pic is where I was actually standing when I was waiting to walk down the aisle. Awwwww I was soooooooo excited to think of Hannah doing the exact same thing :-)

Reception: this is a gorgeous and very popular reception venue. All that we had to do to decorate the venue was to scatter some rose petals on the tables

That is all to show you from Hannah's wedding. Our Congratulations go out to the newlyweds. We are sure it would have been a perfect day for you both!

After: Kellie's wedding

This is the last wedding to show you from the weekend. Kellie kept it very simple and only needed a few bouquets made and a cake top.

Here are her flowers...

Bride Bouquet: white roses, white lisianthus, white freesias, privet berry and dusty miller

Bridesmaids Bouquets: white roses, ivory roses, white lisianthus, white freesias, privet berry and dusty miller

Cake Topper: Kellie had given me a picture of what she was basing her cake on and needed me to do a cake topper of roses just like it (but without the vine). She gave me the top tier of the cake as it was just styrofoam decorated like the rest of the cake, and I was able to put some white and pink roses on it       
We hope that Kellie had a wonderful wedding day and send out our best wishes to the new Mr and Mrs!

After: Kimberly's wedding

Now this wedding was a big job! And the results were amazing. There is going to be a picture overload here but there is so much to show you.

Bride Bouquet: white roses, pink roses, mauve roses, white lisianthus, pink lisianthus and white singapore orchids

Bridesmaids Bouquet: mauve roses, white roses, pink roses, mauve lisianthus, purple lisianthus, white singapore orchids and purple vanda orchids

Flower Girl Bouquet: she had the same as the bride with white roses, pink roses, mauve roses, white lisianthus, pink lisianthus and white singapore orchids

I didn't get any photos of the buttonholes or corsages! In the late night finish and very early morning start, it's something that I just missed out on. Sorry!

The ceremony was held in the most beautiful little church called St Mary's Heritage Church and is located in Gosford.

Ceremony Arrangements: we placed two tall vases of white roses at the front of the church


The reception was held at the Copacabana Surf Life Saving Club. It's right on the beach and the views go forever! Kimberly made full use of the view by having a lunch time reception.

Bridal table: an arrangement of white roses, pink roses, mauve roses, white lisianthus, pink lisianthus and white singapore orchids, and rose petals scattered along the table

a closer view:

Guest tables: the long tables had vases on them filled with clear water pearls, and with posies of mauve roses, white roses, pink roses, mauve lisianthus, white singapore orchids and purple vanda orchids. And rose petals were scattered along the entire length of the tables. They looked so gorgeous that I couldn't stop taking pictures of them......


Cake Table: we didn't do much to this, just scattered some rose petals along the table
 
 
And one final look at the reception room all finished
 
Thank you so much for trusting us with this Kimberly. Your flowers looked amazing and we hope they helped to make your day everything you had dreamed of.

We had a massive weekend so there will be no small talk from me... just straight to the photos

Corsages: one Mum had a dress corsage of white roses and the other Mum had white singapore orchids instead


The wedding was held at Rafferty's Resort in the beautiful Lake Macquarie. It's a great venue for weddings. We didn't have to do anything for the ceremony but I thought I would include a picture so that you could see how pretty it is to have a ceremony by their lake

Reception: this is the reception room with a beautiful lake view in the background

Bridal Table / Guest Tables: all of the tables had a bowl on them with blue water and floating candles in them. We added some white singapore orchid flowers to them and then white rose petals surrounding the bowls

We hope you liked Chrissie's flowers! Congratulations to the gorgeous newlyweds!
