Floral Brights for a Spring Wedding

If you're getting married this Spring, think big and bold.  Grand styling and contemporary containers with rainbow colours, and bold brights.

Big blooms to create a theatrical feel, supersized blooms; hydrangeas, Shamrock Blooms. Ranunculus, tulips and carnations.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Patiently waiting for warmer weather and the start of the spring wedding season. . .

Busy putting together some designs for a summer wedding still wrapped up in my winter layers and thinking; this time last year I was preparing for my first wedding of the season - a civil ceremony at The Seattle hotel down in Brighton Marina. . . .   The weather was considerably warmer!

Counting down to the big day?

-->Did he/she pop the question on Valentine's Day?

Now the fun begins. . . . 

Planning a wedding requires high levels of organisation and many, many to-do lists!


Give yourself enough time - depending on the size, allow between 9 and 12 months to plan your wedding.  

There's lots of elements to consider - this will provide a useful planning checklist.



Starting now and counting down. . .


12 - 9 months before the wedding date

·       Set the budget
·       Set up a filing system for details and receipts.
·       Choose the wedding date
·       Draw up a guest list
·       Decide on the type of ceremony religious or civil.

·       Choose and book venues for wedding and reception.
·       Obtain menus and cost estimates
