Pure and Simple - Updated




Billie sent me through some of the professional photos taken of her wedding on 23rd April which was great as I didn't get to see the room once the chairs had been moved in after the wedding ceremony. There are also some lovely photos of the bouquets which I had forgot to photograph and a great shot of Billie and her Bridesmaids....

Vintage Charm


I've been really busy with vintage china hire over the past two months. I've provided china for a baby shower, a wedding, a christening, a bat mitzvah and an 80th birthday party to name a few. We have another event this weekend and another in a couple of weeks time at the Cafe de Paris in London. Details of all our vintage china hire can be found here - why not take a look.



Apart from our fabulous selection of vintage china we have many other bits and pieces to set the scene for a vintage inspired wedding or event. Why not use vintage style bon bon dishes for your sweetie table or silver dishes filled with flowers for your table centerpieces. For a country look why not use tin cans or jam jars for displaying flowers in or our vintage 10 gallon milk churn - perfect for a vintage or country themed wedding.

Something Blue


On Saturday I also provided some flowers for a Baptism. The party was held at Chapter One in Locksbottom.


The flowers were arranged on martini vases filled with blue deco balls. The flowers consisted of beautiful blue delphiniums, ivory gerbera, white lisianthus and white spider chrysanths with eucalyptus foliage. The vases were placed on a large mirrored plate with blue and clear crystals sprinkled around.

A Perfect Match


I was back at Sundridge Park Manor again on Saturday for another wedding. The bride chose a hot pink and purple colour scheme which is a great combination. The bride carried a trailing bouquet of Power roses, white double lisanthus, purple lisianthus and white Singapore orchids. The bridesmaids carried hand tied bouquets of Purple Power roses, white double lisianthus and purple lisianthus (no photos).

For the tables, the bride chose a combination of low and tall arrangements.


For the low arrangements I used a square mirror cube with an arrangement of Purple Power roses, white and purple lisianthus and eucalyptus. The tall arrangements were arranged on martini vases and consisted of Purple Power roses, white lisianthus, white veronica with eucalyptus and palm foliage.




The head/ceremony table arrangement consisted of Purple Power roses, white and purple lisianthus, white Singapore orchids and foliage. I provided chair covers with hot pink and ultra purple sashes.


The staircase was dressed with eucalyptus and cherry ruscus foliage with cerise and ivory germini and finished off with a purple organza bow.
