Black, White and Silver Wedding

On a somewhat overcast day a couple of weeks ago, we were at the wonderfully peaceful Eastlands Estate in West Sussex for the wedding of Jason and Tina. The moody skies were a striking foil for the couples dramatic colour scheme of black, white and silver, which we created using white lilies and gladioli, glittered black willow and silver accent decoration. Tina carried a bouquet of deepest 'black' calla lilies, whilst her bridesmaids complemented her with wired posies of white oriental lilies, embellished with crystal decoration. The wedding ceremony took place on the terrace of the main house, where a pair of urns filled entirely with white gladioli framed the main entrance.For the wedding reception which took place in the newly decorated Starlight suite, tall flute vases of white lilies and glittered black willow dressed with silver butterflies graced each table. This theme also carried through to the wedding cake, which was decorated with exquisite miniature glittered butterflies.
