Candle Wedding Centerpieces

Candle wedding centrepieces can really add a romantic touch to your wedding decorations. Here you can see one I recently created using different sizes of church candles decorated with colourful rose petals. It’s so easy to add rose petals that match your own personal wedding colour theme. If you can’t source fresh rose petals you can always use freeze dried petals or silk rose petals.


It doesn’t really matter what time of the year you are getting married candles can add real ambiance to a wedding reception. If you choose the ones I used in the photo above these will give you many more hours of burning time than you will actually need so there won’t be any worry about them not lasting.

Sometimes the simplest decorations can be the most effective. Here is a link to my website with more ideas for candle wedding centrepieces.

Sunflower Wedding Bouquets

I was delighted to receive this photo this morning in which you can see the sunflower wedding bouquet that I created for Emma (the bride).

As soon as she contacted me to discuss her wedding flowers she was certain she wanted sunflowers. In her wedding bouquet I combined sunflowers with white bouvardia, freesias and stems of wheat to create this beautiful natural handtied posy bouquet.

The sunflower bouquet was finished off with a collar of fatsia leaves, I think you’ll agree it looked wonderful at this summer wedding.

I continued with the sunflower wedding theme through to her wedding centrepieces.

You don’t have to have an expensive cake, by adding flower cake decorations you can even make a shop bought wedding cake look unique.

Peony Wedding Bouquets

I've really enjoyed creating peony wedding bouquets this spring. The most popular peony at the moment is the white one called 'Duchess Nemo' that you can see in the photo here.


This peony works really well in handtied wedding bouquets. Check out a recent post I made with lots of photos featuring the latest peony wedding bouquets that I've been making for brides this summer.

Peony wedding flowers are available from April through to June. They have become really popular with brides having a vintage wedding theme.

I just treated myself to a massive bunch for my home, as I so love the fragrance they give off. It always amazes me how these tight little buds explode into massive blooms.
