a fabulous flower filled colourful wedding in oxfordshire | uk wedding blog

Eva-and-Matt-(12-of-528)

This wedding was actually submitted to me by Jay Archer as she thought I would appreciate the flowers. She was right. An absolute riot of colour and skill. This post is taking a different approach to blogging a wedding, it is from the eyes of a florist. Jay has written some words about Eva and Matt’s wedding. Not only is Jay a talented florist, she is also an amazing visionary. Some of the projects she works on are incredibly  inspired, make sure you have a look at her work. I have a list of favourite florists and she is most definitely on it.

Hello all!

I hope you have had a lovely weekend and there has been a spot of sunshine where you are? None here in Leeds. As per. We were meant to have our annual Eurovision party (because we are cool) but Atticus was too ill, it would not have been a pleasant experience for our guests!

Such an adorable engagement shoot on the blog today. Gorgeous photography and a riot of colour. I think everyone loves a seaside visit? The smell, the fish and chips, the cockles in little pots, the slot machines, the donkeys and oh the lights! Can you tell I spent my summers on the costa del Lincolnshire? Hope you enjoy. Michael and I are filming the next YouTube video this evening. Excited right?

a snowy wedding on Windermere | uk wedding blog

David and Janey's Wedding, The Fayrer Garden, Katy Melling Photography

When I get a wedding submission my thought process goes like this – “oooo flowers, pretty photographs, dress, happiness and love, more flowers, have I fed the dog today, I should email back straight away, where was the wedding, helloooo handsome wedding guest, menu looks nice, wish I had that bridesmaid’s figure, yup I will blog this”.

Just a small insight in to the workings of my mind. When I saw this wedding I had two thoughts “look how happy they are” and “I need to blog this”. It then just so happened that the flowers are beautiful and they are a super gorgeous couple. Putting this as delicately as possible, you often see couples of a certain age on wedding blogs. The pinterest type, the 20 something. I don’t care how old you are, if you have a beautiful, love filled wedding, I want to blog it.

Loving Natasha Jane‘s new collection! The new collection was unveiled at #2014unveiled, they are all very ‘Game of Thrones’. The collection is definitely for a bride looking for something different. And like Mark Francis said “unless you have a family tiara, you don’t wear one”. My favourite? I surprised myself actually as it is Rhea.
