Sun, Sea and Sand
Whilst working on the previous weddings, inbetween times I was dabbling away at the flowers for this wedding for the lovely Terri. Terri is class, she is such a fun happy girl with a love for water, hence her wedding had a beach theme, and if it was possible, a chance of getting married by the water was part of the plan, but the other thing I loved about Terri was she was so open minded because whatever would be would be. Believe me there was nothing that I wanted more for Terri’s dream to be fullfilled.
Terri’s bridesmaids was soft silvery grey colour, not a colour you would automatically think off, but they were absolutely stunning, the cololur, the stlye the fabric, the detail…..perfect.
Now when it came to the flowers for Terri and her girls and men, once again she was very open minded, with her only request being “colour,” “silk,” and “i’ll leave it with you” so since it was beach themed we definately had to get a few shells in there.
Was lovely to have the chance to create something of a slightly different shape for Terri’s bouquet using the bright pinks, purples and blues with shells which had sheens of these colours coming through.
For the Bridesmaids bouquets, we carried the same colours through although changed the shape to round.
Love the groups of material in the girls bouquets and the effect of seeing something different from every angle you look at them.
Terri had a little flower girl so we kept it very simple for her the accents coming through from the bridesmaids ie. the shells, pearls and lace.
Now the mens buttonholes, how cool are these. It was class to be able to work with shells for these, couldn’t dream of working with anything else.
The day before Terri’s wedding it didn’t give the weather good at all for her day…..
So did Terri get married outside beside the sea??
On her day I couldn’t help from watching the clock and the sky to see if it would clear up in time and YES it did. I couldn’t have been hppier for her, she derserved it so much.
Thank you Terri for absolutely everthing and for being a joy to work with xx
