Planet Flowers

Hopetoun House

When we opened up these wedding photographs from Blue Sky Photography we had completely forgotten how much modern floral goodness had been at this wedding. Now that we have had time to look back over last summers weddings, the range of styles and colours were phenomenal and there really is no stand out colour or look that we could say was a definite trend for the year. However Julie and Ben's wedding definitely stands out from the crowd. The clean modern sleekness and strong colour palette set it apart from so much of what we are seeing trending in the magazines at the moment.

Wedderburn Castle

It’s so cold today! All day we have been dreaming of the spring arriving and getting back into the cutting gardens, getting the sun on our backs. So we thought what better day to show you some bridal flowers we designed for a Wedderburn Castle wedding last year. It must have been the hottest day of the year – it was so gorgeous and warm that some of the team even got sunburnt while creating the outdoor ceremony!

Hopetoun House

Gosh it feels like a very long time since we last posted. The team are feeling refreshed and ready for 2012! In the last week or so we have met so many new couples getting married this year, excited to see the array of venues that we are already booked for and being part of many special weddings and events this year.

Looking back at last year we can’t quite believe how many diverse events we were involved in and the amazing places we were featured! From elegant weddings to fun 21st birthday parties, to being featured on Rock MyWedding, Love My Dress, The Ebury Collection and to top it off Style Me Pretty (yep.. Style Me Pretty!! OMG!) Although, really last years icing on the cake has to be one of two things.. our first VOWS award nomination and being voted one the top 50 UK florists in the Independent 2011 was an almighty year..

So what’s our first blog post of 2012 about? It’s about this enchanting wedding that First Light Photography captured that we have popped up on our online gallery if for no other reason to look at this Hopetoun wedding day but to see the most adorable little sweet flower girls! Thanks Ditte for letting us see the day through your eyes.

Prestonfield House

Today we are pretty thrilled to share photos from Sheila and Nehal's wedding courtesy of the hugely talented Elemental Weddings. This wedding was full to the brim with some of the most amazing details and although every wedding is different we really don’t think we have ever met another couple quite like Sheila and Nehal. The amount of work and planning they put into their wedding was mind boggling! Every decision they made together and Sheila handmade so many of the most beautiful DIY projects we ever did see. When they first popped in to see us they brought handmade paper that was going to be used for stationery. The paper was gorgeous and rustic and through the paper lay red onion skin.. Yes, onion skin. That one element carried us throughout the floral planning, filling our ideas with designs full of texture and depth of colour. Making sure Prestonfield Marquee was warm and inviting, full of interest and ambience..
