Cream metal bucket

I love it when a supplier sends me really good professional photos like these as the photos say it all. This is a selection of decorations, favours and goodies from online wedding shop, The Wedding of My Dreams. I asked Gemma, their creative director, to talk me through their top 10 best sellers. Cream metal bucket – Another country inspired centre piece, churns and buckets are becoming really popular to display flowers in on wedding tables, most of our brides stick to cream for the more traditional wedding but if you’re looking for a splash of colour they also come…

Great-Fosters-Shoot-776

As I keep saying I love spring weddings – the flowers are always so fresh and blooming in Spring. For those of you planning a spring wedding you are so lucky as there so many fabulous seasonal flowers to choose from like cream and pink hyacinths. These photos are from 2 different shoots, taken at Great Fosters Hotel, Surrey – I’m quite impressed that Juliet, the photographer and her assistant, Debbie, arranged all the bouquets as the flowers are gorgeous. Have a look at the Sugar and Spice Photography site and click through to the blog to see more photos…

Petal Lanterns

Aren’t these petal shades gorgeous. I think that is how you describe them… though I would also call them a lantern (without the light!) – a fellow blogger on OK Tea let me know about a competition that she is running to win one so I thought that I would let you know – just click here to enter the competition I went to a wedding in someone’s garden last summer and they had lots of lanterns hanging from the trees and it just looked so pretty.

Large Willow Heart

I’m a hopeless romantic – you only have to say the word ‘LOVE’ and I start melting into a happy haze. I also ‘love’ supporting british designers and suppliers on LMW so I thought that I would post this little melange of loveliness that I found on Vintage Amethsyt – an online shop selling lots of vintage arts and crafts. These are perfect little touches to include on your wedding day, use them to decorate the reception, on the tables, or to help style your table plan. These are incredibly good value at start at only £4.50 for the lovely…

Spring Wedding Bouquet

There aren’t nearly enough spring weddings flowers around – I regularly get pictures of lovely bright summery wedding bouquets, but the autumn and spring arrangements don’t get nearly as much air time. So I thought I’d change that by posting this beautiful spring bridal bouquet, sent to me (and photographed) by Planet Flowers. There must be lots of you getting married in Spring that are looking for inspiration and ideas for your flowers. Well, if you’re anything like me, and don’t even have a clue what will be in season its definitely worth thinking about including hyacinths in the mix…
