As the 2022 wedding season begins to draw to a close it's always nice to look to the future and what looks set to trend in 2023 as far as weddings are concerned. What was big in 2022? The year of colour I definitely felt brides being much much braver with colour this year. There were less 'blush' or 'green and white' weddings than previous years. My couples lent into the seasons more and let the time of year influence the colour schemes - with great result! For example soft and delicate spring palettes, bolder brights for summer and beautiful moody, textured Autumn weddings. Statement Flower ..read more

Whether you are in the throws of planning a spring wedding or simply toying with idea of it, spring as a season, holds an exciting air of real optimism and hope. After winter, there is hope for warmer, brighter days ahead. And optimism for signs of new life, as buds pop through once frozen ground and empty fields are filled with bouncy lambs.

September is such a ..read more

And it's no wonder when you think about sunny blue skies, drinks receptions on the lawn, a lovely warm evening, walking hand in hand through the gardens for 'that photo' at golden hour and dancing into the long balmy night with your nearest and dearest.

There is something really wonderful about a British grown flower, the scent and movement is unbeatable. And how wonderful to know that your wedding flowers have been grown locally, with passion, rather than simply mass produced for profit thousands of miles away. I also really believe in supporting the wonderful flower growers we have in the UK. It's an industry which is going from strength to strength and there are now wonderful local flowers available for most of the year. Of course, good old British weather means winter weddings are a little more tricky to make entirely from British flowers ..read more
