Contemporary Top Table Arrangements

It has become really popular for couples to choose more contemporary top table arrangements.

Here you can see how we have used three of the large goldfish bowls with floating gerberas in them on a top table.

They looked really stunning, we linked the three bowls with tea lights in glass holders.

Let's Here it for the Boys

Don't forget about the men when you're planning your wedding flowers.

Let's face it they are not going to have many flowers, so make the ones they do have really special.

In this photo you can see how I've made this calla lily buttonhole look very contemporary and stylish without going over the top on accessories.

Sometimes discreet delicate details look far better and get noticed more than you'd think.

I love creating different buttonholes that coordinate through with the bridal flowers. Click here for more photos and ideas on buttonholes.

As Spring moves into summer I think it's an ideal time to celebrate this beautiful English flower the peonie.

The peonie has become a really popular choice for brides at this time of the year. If you're looking for an English garden theme or vintage style to your wedding flowers then Peonies might be a choice for you.

Peonies make a great alternative to large garden roses, they also provide a beautiful delicate fragrance to a bouquet.

Vintage Wedding Flowers

In this video you can see me setting up at a wedding. The bride asked us to produce vintage style table arrangements incorporating her butterfly theme. She was keen to have a very natural style of flower arrangements using fragrant flowers. The arrangements fitted very well with her venue, a rustic barn surrounded by beautiful countryside near Stratford Upon Avon.

Candelabra's At Walton Hall Hotel

Candelabras really are a wonderful choice of table decoration for weddings. They work especially well if you are holding your wedding reception at a period house or stately home.

In the photograph you can see how we decorated them for a wedding at Walton Hall Hotel. They were a perfect choice for this period property. The reception room has a very high ceiling and very ornate chandeliers so the candelabras fitted in really well.

You should always check with your wedding venue that they allow you to use candles before making your final arrangements.

Kilworth House - Civil Ceremony Decorations

A great way to decorate your registrar's table during your civil ceremony is to place your top table arrangement on it.

In the photo you can see how Faye's top table arrangement was placed on the registrars table ready for the wedding ceremony at Kilworth House.

Brides are often looking at economical ways to cut the cost of wedding decorations. We always advise couples to use the flowers as many times as possible. The staff at your venue will be more than happy to move things for you. After all the flowers are so beautiful you want to use them as much as possible.
