Lauren + James, September 2023, Sandburn Hall, York, North Yorkshire
Lauren & James’s brief was ‘fun and vibrant, with a rainbow of brights’ and that’s exactly what we did :-) Lauren was after bold colours for a punchy look, and you can see above how well her bouquet contrasts against her beautiful dress. James, his groomsmen and Lauren’s bridesmaids wore navy which again, provided a fabulous backdrop for the colourful flowers. The bridesmaids bouquets were a smaller version of Lauren’s.

Pippa + Josh, September 2022, Thief Hall, North Yorkshire
Pippa’s colour palette was super pretty – shades of mauve and hints of blush with lots of texture and a pop of dark pink for depth. With the wedding being at the beginning of September there was plenty of lovely late summer blooms to choose from, including varieties from my local grower for those extra special stems that bounce as you carry your bouquet.
