Becky's Wintery Wedding Flowers, Solent Spa

 Becky was keen to have a very natural wintery look for her flowers but avoiding anything Christmassy. The wedding was the week before Christmas and the wish to avoid the Christmas look is not uncommon. So if you are a winter bride looking for a seasonal look without the Christmas touches, this post is for you.


Becky's beautiful wintery bouquet in whites, creams and silvers using roses,spray roses, anemones, brunnia, wax flower and senecio. Very natural, very wintery but no traces of Christmas.


Co-ordinating bouquets of ivory roses, cream spray roses, brunnia, wax flower and the silvery senecio for the bridesmaids. 


Buttonhole of white rose, bruwnia and eucalyptus for the groom.


Stunning, wintery candelabra flowers in pale pinks, silver and whites, very loose and natural. I've used soft pink roses, cream spray roses, white anemones and berries, wax flower and mixed silver toned foliages to create the look. The ivy trails are the perfect finishing touch.


Co-ordinating wreaths of roses, berries, wax flower and silver foliages around a candle makes a lovely co-ordinating low design for a few of the tables. Mixing the heights like this helps give colour, flower and candlelight at different levels and the overall effect can be just stunning.

That just leaves me to say thank you so much Becky for asking me to design and create your wedding flowers for you. It was an absolute pleasure working on this beautiful, natural, and wintery 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

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
