🌿 The question I get asked again, and again, as a Flower Farmer Florist..
"So, what flowers did you have at your own wedding?"
I think people expect the answer to be a hyper calculated, military operation design. They imagine crisp, abundant perfection....giant arches, cascading urns...
However....I just used the things I loved, and let nature do the talking.
These photos are from a scorching, beautiful August day, standing right in the middle of the madness with my husband.
For my bouquet, I wanted a natural, scented celebration of the season. I packed it with delicate sweet peas, Shirley poppies, California poppies, and airy stems of ammi majus and cosmos. I anchored them with the moody, velvety depth of Burgundy Ice roses, rudbeckia, cornflowers, agapanthus, sea lavender, perovskia, and a touch of traditional myrtle and trailing jasmine.
And for the FLOWER CROWN I didn't want polite or subtle. I wanted fun, dramatic, and unapologetically giant...as I put it on, I quietly asked my Mum, 'is it too much?', to which she exuberantly replied, 'for you, never'...I love her a little bit more for that.. So, a massive crown overflowing with our finest dahlias, prefect for Glastonbury or a Cotswold Outdoor wedding in a walled garden.
We then danced, drank and laughed till dawn...you do you x
