Rachel's Romantic, June Wedding Flowers, Southend Barns.

It has to be said, first thing it wasn't looking to good for this lovely summer schemed June wedding. The skies were black, it was raining cats and dogs. we had thunder and lightning all round and a lovely severe weather warning thrown in for good measure !  By midday though, the skies cleared, the sun came out and all was well. The florist put her wet weather gear away, the beautiful ( and somewhat delicate !) english summer flowers out and we are back to the original plan. An absolutely gorgeous June wedding !


Bride's bouquet of pink and white peonies, roses, stocks, scabious and astilbe. Absolutely perfect for a romantic June wedding and it smelt as lovely as it looked. I was sorry to part with it !


Bridesmaids' bouquet of peonies, roses, stocks and astilbe in soft pinks and white. 


Making an entrance at Southend Barns, gorgeous summer flowers including peonies, roses, stocks, larkspur for the dresser at the entrance to the Threshing Barn. Situated right opposite the doors to the barn this is a perfect spot for a statement floral design. 


Pew End design of roses, peonies and stocks in soft pinks and whites and finished with a romantic tulle bow and trails. It's softness suits the contemporary oak pews at Southend Barns perfectly. 


Co-ordinating vases of roses, peonies and stocks were used on the ceremony table to complete the line of flower. 


The Threshing Barn entrance at Southend Barns, the mix of traditional June flowers in the contemporary aluminium low pail looks perfect in this spot and it makes a gorgeous welcome for arriving guests.


Romantic tall table centre of roses, peonies, stocks and scabious in soft whites and pinks is perfect for a June wedding.


Summer wreath with candle using roses, peonies, stocks and scabious. Here we mixed high and low table centres for colour scent and flower at all levels

That just leaves me to say thank you so much Rachel for asking me to design and create your wedding flowers for you. It was an absolute pleasure working with you on this gorgeous scheme. Very many congratulations on your marriage.

Are you a sucker for packaging?

Image from here . I most certainly am, beautifully packaged goods like those above make me drool. Simple packaging too, really does it for me. Take Bonne Mamman  http://bonnemaman.us/  for example...it's those lovely checked lids for a start, then the wonderful black and white labels that look handwritten. It's not only that,  what about all the clever things that people do with the jars, once the contents, (and they are none too shabby either), have been consumed. I love the simple packaging on some of the items Jamie Oliver has for sale on his website. http://jamieoliver.com/ . It seems I am not alone in my appreciation of packaging and branding, as there is a mueseum of brands in London. http://www.museumofbrands.com/     Some more lovely packaging to entice you to part from your hard-earned cash.... Images from here . I love these bottles, sometimes you see them in designer kitchens, all lined up, and although I think it's a bit stage set, I still like it. Sometimes, it

Halloween Time at the Disneyland Resort

Hình ảnh
It's Halloween Time! Actually it's still the middle of September, but at the Disneyland Resort, Halloween is in full swing, having officially kicked off the season on September 15th. It's always fun to have something new to do at Disneyland and both kids were really excited to be celebrating Halloween already. We didn't quite make rope drop today. The park opened at 8am, with Disneyland opening at 7am for Extra Magic Hours. It was 8:30am when we parked, and following our usual strategy, we started in the park that did not have Extra Magic Hours. DCA has transformed for Halloween! I love the entrance! I'm always happy to see more Nightmare Before Christmas in the parks. And there was a Photopass Photographer at the entrance taking pictures for guests too. Before we start doing rides, I wanted to make sure we do a few of the special Halloween specific things. Cars Land has been totally transformed and looks amazing. The Imagineers certainly are creative in how they ma

WDW Monday, Magic Kingdom and Finally trying the Beaches and Cream Kitchen Sink - 11/20/17

Hình ảnh
It's our last day of vacation here in Florida. Let's wrap this one up. The day started in the Magic Kingdom. But the lines! Everyone was starting their day here apparently. First ride of the day was the monorail to get over to the park. And to start the day for the parents, we get... Coffee! Being so crowded we planned our day around the rides that swallow a lot of people without having to wait around too long. Rides like Mickey's Philharmagic. And other rides like the Carrousel. Trying to make our way over to the next ride and the pathways were gridlocked. It's difficult to fathom this many people being here at once. Earlier I had grabbed Fastpasses for Splash Mountain, which is one of Ian's favorite rides back home. The logs here are a little different though with everyone sitting side by side plus the addition of lapbars. Ian insisted on sitting in the front. Please don't throw me in that briar patch. Thankfully we made it out of the briar patch unscathed too
