Matthew & Gemma married last Saturday at Lazaat Hotel and hired several key décor items from us for their big day. We provided an arch and backdrop for their ceremony room; then for their reception, our light-up rustic heart and a second, extra-wide backdrop for behind the top table. We also performed a turn-around service after the ceremony and moved our greenery arch through to serve as an all-day photo spot in their reception room. I do love a bit of lush green! 🌿
Congratulations to the happy couple! 😊

Our first wedding of the weekend, set up on Friday for Holly & James' big day yesterday. I loved this décor so much that taking everything down today made me feel a bit sad. It was an absolute pleasure to put together though. A beautiful venue, a lovely couple, friendly guests and staff, and some of my personal favourite items in our hire range - this really was a treat!
Congratulations to the happy couple! 👰🤵

Congratulations to Billy and Mercedes on their first week of marriage.
Last weekend we had the pleasure of working at the gorgeous Saltmarshe Hall, creating a beautiful setting for our couple’s ceremony in the sun. Our trees and arch added a burst of blossom to Saltmarshe’s walled garden, and our white carpet gave the bride a classic aisle to walk down to meet her other half. We then performed a turnaround service where we got them all set for their first meal as husband and wife. I love how beautifully our blossom suits the décor in the high-ceilinged, sunlit morning room.

A light and breezy wedding setup we did at Holiday Inn Hull Marina last week. I love so many colour schemes but there's a special little place in my heart for a classic white wedding aesthetic. 🤍
Congratulations to Doris & Ajibola.

Here are some photos from our first wedding of the year, which I'm still fondly thinking of several weeks later. I loved working with this gorgeous dusky blue, which I think pairs brilliantly with our beautiful blossom trees. 🩵
Our couple were absolutely lovely to work with. We got fabulous feedback on our decor when we went back at the end of the night, and seeing them both absolutely on cloud nine was so rewarding. We couldn't have asked for a better start to the year. 😌

We've added some fabulous new florals to our range, ready for the coming season. The first piece is our gorgeous new floral and foliage arch, packed with greenery and hundreds of roses. This super full arch makes a great transition between areas and can comfortably accommodate two people walking side-by-side. It's perfect for your aisle, or for walking into your wedding breakfast for your first meal as a married couple.
