It has officially started…the wedding season!
With it kicking off earlier than ever this year, we already have 15 weddings under our, wider belts, since Christmas.
Some beautiful country garden centerpieces, vintage bridal bouquets, exotic displays andwonderful white winter church weddings, it is hard to determine the popular theme of 2015.
We can only hope that the variation continues though out the year, as the excitement of every wedding we hand make is with love, care and the up most attention.
From the beginning, our bride and groom meet with one of the highly experienced and highly trained wedding planners. From meeting to meeting they will discuss the dreams and themes of their big day. Helped by modern technology and traditional methods, our consultants capture their hopes and dreams and set upon designing the perfect floral displays for each couple.
About a month before, our buying team, contact the dutch growers and make sure that every bloom the couple have chosen, will be in the most perfect condition and arrive promptly and fresh. Alot of time is spent each year to research new flowers and trends which are arising from the Netherlands, so we can assure that the Parsley and Sage wedding, will always stand out from the crowd.
The week before the wedding, all ribbons, jewels and finishes are due to arrive in store from some of the very best suppliers in England. On many occasions, we source vases and vessels for each couple, so they are new, shinny and in perfect condition. We aim to supply the very best of everything we offer. For ribbons, it must be silk, satin or velvet. For Jewels, it must sparkle, dazzle and impress. For vases, it must be a clean, thick cut glass.
A few days before the big day, we contact all of the other wedding vender’s included in the couples special day. To make sure that our team work professionally and in a military style, time keeping and appearance is key! Each Venue has its own on site regulations, opening times, contact people and expectations, it is in our nature to know this from the outset, to ensure a smooth stress free day for the couple.
In the hours counting down to the big day, we do what we do best!! Each flower arrives, it is conditioned and given the seal of approval before they are arranged into a stylish arrangement. It can takes hours to make each of our larger arrangements, so our dedicated team often work late into the night to ensure we have done everything possible to impress the Bride and Grooms guests.
We do not rest until our vans return back to base after delivering and completing each wedding venue set up. With us completing weddings all over the country, we are blessed to see some of the most beautiful castles, spa clubs, heritage homes, country halls and modern hotels . Then it is simply just a matter of time, albeit usually a small amount of time, until we start all over again.
With a usual count of 5-12 weddings a week during high season, it is clear to see where our valuable experience comes from!
We would like to thank everyone who has trusted us with this very important job and all of you who are about to over the next few years!
So, just about enough time to enjoy a freshly brewed coffee, then off to help plan the next 189 weddings booked with us on file so far this year!
