Vintage Wedding Flowers

Last weekend we ventured East for the wedding of Katherine and Elliott. The wedding ceremony was held at the Chapel of St Peter Ad Vincula within the walls of the Tower of London, followed by a reception at one of London's hidden gems, Wiltons Music Hall. The only surviving grand victorian music hall in the world, Wiltons is on the list of the most endangered buildings in the country and is literally crumbling away. So we were delighted to be able to work at this most historic of venues. Gorgeous lollipop bay trees flanked the main stairs which were garlanded with ivy trails and fairy lights and this theme continued into the main auditorium creating a wonderful twinkly atmosphere.In keeping with the surroundings, the wedding flowers had a distinctly vintage feel, with distressed terracotta pots, scented herbs and soft antique pink roses decorating the tables downstairs. Lavish urns filled with chocolate brown cotinus, pink larkspur, aromatic waxflower, roses and trailing ivy, were placed in the gallery upstairs for the drinks reception. Once again, our thanks go out to Lester Gethings from Number 10 Wedding Design & Management who worked tirelessly throughout the day to help us create such a memorable event. The bride's father is a patron of Wiltons, and I am sure we are not alone in wanting to promote and save this wonderful building for all to enjoy.
