This photo is from a wedding at Dundas Castle – a beautiful historic venue near Edinburgh, Scotland. Bay trees were placed at the entrance to the Keep with garlands of mini orchids hanging from them. What a lovely idea. In keeping with the colour scheme the wooden staircases inside were decorated with green foliage and white orchids. The two colours working really well with the wooden backdrop. Dundas Castle is one of Scotland’s most beautiful and historic castles and is a perfect 5 star wedding venue if you are looking for somewhere to get married near Edinburgh. Make sure that…

Been clucking to post about this wedding because I knew it was going to be just gorgeous as it involved two of my very favourite scottish wedding suppliers. Planet flowers who I have featured many times on LMW because their flowers arrangements, bouquets and buttonholes are just gorgeous. Always. Christina and Jay are equally talented and are a husband and wife team that make up Elemental Photography – this beautiful wedding at Fernie Castle which I featured a while back on LMW is their work. But without further ado lets get on to this one… The wedding took place at…

I love autumn flowers – the rich reds, oranges and yellows. I’ve been dying to showcase some autumnal wedding flower arrangements (even though I am acutely aware that we’re now moving on to the cusp of autumn/ winter!) so I was pretty happy when I got these lovely pics from Planet Flowers. I feature their work quite a lot on LMW because quite simply I love it and also they always seem to use seasonal and local flowers and foliage. This wedding was on the 14th November at Drumtochty Castle, an award winning wedding venue in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Gemma from…

Given that some of my post popular posts on LMW are on wedding flowers I thought that I would share the Planet Flowers blog with you. I have featured lots of their wedding arrangements in the past and I have to say that their blog has lots of inspiration. I love this…

I love buttonholes – I always look at the boys buttonholes at weddings to see if they have the usual limp rose with petals falling out or if they’re wearing something a little out of the ordinary. Here are a selection of some of my favourites and a few tips to make sure that you get your buttonholes really fresh on the day ….. I asked the lovely ladies at Planet Flowers for some pics of buttonholes, explaining my fetish for them and I got a whole load more than I bargained for….. these are really beautifully done, carefully crafted…

More beautiful wedding arrangements and bouquets from Planet Flowers, based in Scotland. Its not just me that has fallen in love with them because I’ve had some really lovely feedback from fellow florists on my post showcasing some of their summer wedding bouquets that they designed for an American bride earlier this year. My favourite of these recent shots is this one below- I LOVE the button holes for the gentlemen they are stylish, colourful and aren’t going to droop in the heat as the day goes on. Gemma (the florist) has said previously that it is great to see…
