Classic Summer Wedding

Last Saturday we were at the home of
The English Speaking Union, Dartmouth House in Mayfair for the wedding of Vici and Sherard. In this gloriously grand London mansion, we created a classic look using english summer flowers in soft pinks, blues and lilacs.


Wedding planners par excellence, The Bespoke Wedding Companywww.thebespokeweddingco.com/ managed the day faultlessly, ensuring that every detail was taken care of and, by the look on everyone's faces at the end of the evening, I think a good time was had by all!

The wedding breakfast took place in the beautiful Long and Small drawing rooms and here, under richly decorated ceilings and crystal chandeliers, we alternated high and low arrangements of hydrangea, scabious and lisianthus for a perfect romantic look. Soft candlelight in frosted votives warmed the room on what was a typical english summer day.....wet! You always know you've done a good job, when you return at the end of the evening to clear the venue and see the guests leaving with the flowers! When you overhear someone saying how beautiful they are and when the very happy looking bride takes the time to come and thank you....it doesn't matter that its midnight and you've been up since 5a.m, its what we call an ET...a Euphoric Triumph!!!
