When I first met Charlotte and Colin at Pilgrims Rest in Battle to discuss the wedding florals for the venue, Charlotte quickly drew a picture of how she envisioned the tables. In her minds eye, she viewed the long tables with flowers and candles running down the middle. At first she was unsure of the colour and switched between just green and white, to peach and apricot, to a pale blush. But once the grooms suit was sorted and she shared the picture with me, I knew that we should stick ... Read More about Chic Apricot and White Wedding
Traditional Wedding
Sometimes you meet a couple who know exactly what they want. Rhianna and Edward were that couple.

MICRO WEDDING – USING DAVID AUSTIN ROSES
Working with the lovely Louisa to bring to life her dream bouquet was so much fun. From the first discussion on floral options to picking a rose which not only was the perfect colour but also had the same name as her niece. The brief was garden roses, just like those grown by her mum in her cottage garden in East Sussex. The brief was dark and pale pink, garden roses which had scent. So of course no other rose other than a David Austin Rose would do. So after some researching the perfect ... Read More about MICRO WEDDING – USING DAVID AUSTIN ROSES
