Nicola's Country Style Wedding Flowers, Rhinefield House

I really should have posted the images of Nicola's flowers much sooner because if I say so myself, they really were rather beautiful. House move has a lot to answer for ! But better late than never - here they are.


Nicola's country style bouquet in soft blue, pink, lilac and ivory. I have used a few roses mixed with agapanthus, scabious, larkspur, stocks, freesias and wax flower. Some real english country garden favourites in there. The overall effect is soft, natural and very pretty.


A small comb of lisianthus, spray rose and wax flower for the bride's hair


Lady's buttonhole of rose, freesia, wax flower and rosemary.


For the bride's mum, a small spray of lisianthus, spray rose and wax flower designed to go on a small clutch bag.


The entrance porch at Rhinefield House, the stone ledge is decorated with candles all surrounded by wedding themed flowers in blues, dusky pinks and ivory. 


Stunning, tumbling flowers for the fireplace at Rhinefield House in pinks and blues. The hydrangeas are great for this job and look spectacular mixed with delphiniums, spray roses and mixed trailing foliages. Each section is separated by a large lantern containing a church candle. This is a large design but can always be scaled down for smaller mantles


The table centres were a co-ordinating mix of country style flowers in soft blues and dusky pinks in a wreath around a church candle in a storm lantern. Rhinefield House was made for candlelight and this type of design is a great option for anyone looking for low table centre ideas at this venue.


The same mix of flowers scaled up into a beautiful trailing design for the somewhat large fireplace in the Great Hall at Rhinefield. The overall effect of the 2 co-ordinating designs at different levels and all that candlelight is quite stunning.


A smaller, trailing design for the mantle in the Kings Room where the drinks reception was held. 

That just leaves me to say thank you so much Nicola for asking me to design and create your wedding flowers for you. As you can probably tell, I absolutely loved working on this beautiful and very natural scheme for you.

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
