Emma and Pete wedding

We did our first 'suprise' wedding last weekend. Obviously the bridal party knew, and Emma did end up telling a few people but most of them thought they were coming to her 30th Birthday but suprise (!) it was her Birthday but it was also their wedding day!
Emma is a photographer http://emmacasephotography.blogspot.com/ based in Birmingham and so has been to MANY weddings as the offical photographer so has seen probably more weddings than I have! Probably one of the reason that it was a suprise wedding!

So, what flowers to have for a girl that has done more weddings than she can probably count!> The dress was the real inspiration from http://www.furcoatnoknickers.co.uk/ ! It was a vintage inspired dress, really simple and beautiful. You can see it at http://www.rocknrollbride.com/ . Also the bridesmaids dresses (which still weren't 100% confirmed even the week before!) were going to be a mixture of different colours. So we wanted a vintage but colourful look.

We decided the flowers should to look gathered, obviously professional but not too 'contrived' if that makes sense! So we decided on some soft but vibrant orange roses, purple lisianthus, orange ranunculus, purple static and pink wax with hints of white gypsophilia. All the different textures and colours complimented each other perfectly and I think really made a beautiful vintage inspired bouquet, button hole and bridesmaid posy.

I can't wait to see a few more photos of the day and I have to say it's been lots of fun working with such a relaxed fun loving bride!
