Sophisticated Summer Wedding Flowers
Shed Scenes – Polly and Nathan’s Wedding August 2018
Hello! I’m Meg a wedding florist in Bristol. Welcome to my next Shed Scenes blog post. A behind the scenes look at my floral goings on as I beaver away in my flower shed in the heart of Bristol. I love to snap away as I work and record the process as I put together my lovely couple’s wedding flowers.
Polly and Nathan’s Floral Style
A beautifully relaxed wedding full of lovely personal touches. I was truly honored to be asked to create florals for Polly and Nathan’s wedding day. They wanted elegant, sophisticated designs with an informal, thrown together feel. Together we came up with a beautiful blush, ivory and lavender colour palette.
They a chose a loose, natural style for the Bride and bridesmaids bouquets, boutonnieres for the boys and lovely ‘thrown together’ flowers for their reception at Barley Wood in Jam jars, bottles and demijons.
The Blooms
I used a lovely English Summer mix including Garden roses, stocks, larkspur, campanula, astrantia and scabious. Polly requested that lavender and ferns were included in memory of her lovely mum and Newzealand. I included dried lavender and 3 types of fern in the final design which added such a beautifully unique and personal touch.
I can’t wait to see the professional pics from the day!
