I love it when the first thing that a Bride does when I hand over her bridal bouquet, is to bury her head in amongst the blooms and breathe in the heady fragrance of delicious Lily of the Valley, Sweet Peas, Peonies and English Garden rose. The fabulous photographers for the day were the completely lovely to work with Abigail & Eye
We did the usual Flower Design Wedding Bouquet Holding lesson an essential part of truly enjoying and making the most of the bouquets throughout the day.
After decorating St Michael's we met up with Lyndsey's handsome groom Chris to pin his very special Boutonniere of a "Faith Rose", Champagne Grass and Eryngium thisle.
I couldn't decide on the best photo, Glasses on or off, you decide!
The Grooms Men were also wearing Faith Roses but dressed less elaboratley
Inside Chuch we arranged fragrant posies on the end of alternate pews and huge candelit pedestal designs on the stone plinths on either side of the ceremony space
The guests started to arrive and we pinned on and arranged their flowers
The Page Boys delicate Boutonniere's

The Lytch Gate at St Michael's always looks so gorgeous, we'd arranged a full garland along the top and hung lanterns
I'd used Peonies, Roses & Hydrangeas in the garland
The very handsome Brides Father
And the very lovely Elsie who looks after all of the paper work at St Michael's
The Page Boys were completely adorable and were wearing small clusters of Gracia Creme Florabunda roses in their buttonholes
The Grooms Mum carried a handbag dressed with some lovely Vanda orchids
The Lytch Gate dressed with fresh flowers at St Michael's Church WhitewellThe Bride and all of her gorgeous Bridesmaid's walked from the Inn to the Church next door
Lyndsey's Mum looked completely fabulous
Still smelling those delicious flowers!Lyndsey looked completely breathtaking
The wedding flautist entertained the congregation perfectly
Lyndsey's Mum did a beautiful reading from the lectern Pew end posies always look so elegant St Michael's at Whitewell is a such a lovely Church a perfect backdrop for pedestal designsThere were lots of magnificent hats on display
The signing of the register
Huge and ginormous congratulations to Mr & Mrs Kitchen from all of the team here at Flower Design
Then off to the marquee at The Inn at Whitewell next door to St Michael's, we'd dressed the out door tables with the porch lanterns and fresh David Austin Roses
The Bay Trees and Ferns were placed on either side of the doors to the marquee
The Views are completely spectacular
The Pew end Posies were attached to the back of the dining chairs of the Top Table
We'd designed gorgeous vintage birdcages with lanterns inside and placed them in a garden of fresh Roses & Peonies
Some of the Birdcages had the flowers inside and alternate tables had high candelabras all with a vintage twist.
We'd used glorious Sweet Avalanche Roses alongside David Austin's finest English Garden Roses
The Cake Table was sprinkled with fragrant rose petals and two of the flower girl's posies of Sweet peas framed the exquisite cake.
Candelabra (left) and a view of the round top table, Jason placed the large Church pedestal just behind the Bride & Groom's seats and we'd used the pew end posies on the back of the chairs, the Birdcage design here was much larger than on the other tables and we'd surrounded it with our own vintage candelsticks, all in all completely gorgeous.

The seating plan was decorated with a simple spray of fresh Roses and the Church Pedestals found new homes inside the marquee
This was a most perfect day filled with fragrance of fresh English Roses & Sweet Peas and I hope Lyndsey & Chris' lives will always be filled with a fragrance as sweet as this!
This really was a truly magical day with the most gorgeous bride & groom and their lovely families I always feel honoured to be involved in such special days albeit in a very small way, and today was no exception, many thanks for choosing Flower Design!
