Lavender, lilac and soft pinks for summer wedding

Sharing some lovely photos of Carol and Pauls wedding at Shorne Church and Sevenoaks.
The arch at the church gate was smothered with roses in shades of cream, lavender and palest pink

Clematis pokes cheekily above the roses and astrantia
giving a good sense of movement to the arrangement on the
mantlepiece

 a closer look, the pew ends were simple bunches
of scented stocks and sedum and lisianthus were
used for the buttonholes

 Tables at St Juliens Club, Sevenoaks

Peonies and Jasmine at Preston Court

Long time no see! These next pictures courtesy of bride and fab photography by Tom Gold.
The wedding was earlier this year at Preston Court and the gorgeous church St Mildreds.

Beautiful bouquet of peonies and just peonies, so
simple and so lovely..

Generous pedestal at the church

 These pew ends had jasmine and ivy trails, the
scent was heady!

Pew Ends re tied onto the chairs
around the top table, looking fab

Posies for Floral Tea Dresses

Last week my bride had chosen gorgeous floral tea dresses for her bridesmaids, each a different floral
colour and pattern. VERY pretty (and could be worn again!) but what flowers to choose to go with these dresses?  Solution: lime green, white and green fluffy posies of summer annuals...

The bridal bouquet was slightly elongated in shape and used peonies, spray roses, rubus, astrantia and trachelium...The milk churns were placed outside the church then moved to the marquee, there was a nervous wait as they fairly billowed in the swi
rling wind gusts! The buttonholes were the gorgeous Pink O Hara garden style scented roses
