From funerals to British weddings, the summer garden is full of celebrations. This bouquet was requested by one of my regulars for the ‘official’ part of her son’s wedding.
I created a small bridal posy using early July flowers – Blackcurrant, Scabiosa, Sweet peas, Ammi Green Mist, Marshmallow, Snap dragons and a single Queen of Sweden Rose. I’m finding so many brides requesting these really pretty but almost understated bouquets from me, which I love. I fill them with the most beautiful blooms I can, earmarking flowers around the garden in the run up to the day. Knowing my flowers so well, I concentrate on picking those individual stems full of character and delight. Back in January, I planned a gentle colour palette of white, green and mauve as my back drop and have been adding different tutti-fruity seasonal shades as and when the garden gives them too me. As a result every bouquet is individual and captures a moment within the year.
If you need a flowers for the ‘official’ part of your wedding day please get in touch, I am getting booked up for big weddings but always have enough for a beautiful bouquet or two. Ideally a few weeks notice is preferred but I can always pull something together on the spur of the moment.
