Congrats to Jenni & Simon who were married on 1st November in Rathgar, Dublin. We had the pleasure of decorating the Synagogue and preparing the bouquets.
The bridal bouquet was created in a teardrop shape, hand tied, and I used beautiful avalanche roses, bouvardia and mini white calla lillies. Finished with delicate soft ruscus and the stems were wrapped in elegant white satin with a diamond and white feather for luck detail as a final flourish!
The bridesmaids, who wore royal blue, carried mixed hand tied posies of white and sweet avalanche roses. For the gorgeou flower girl, we stiffened the white satin bag provided by the bride, and filled it with fresh rose petals, and pinned a cute corsage to the front. We created a wrist corsage of lisianthus and bouvardia for the ring bearer and the groom wore a double calla and bouvardia bouttoniere.
In the synagogue, we draped the Chuppah with ivory tulle and finished with natural variagated ivy. The ivy detailing was reflected on the window sills, which were draped with bunches of trailing ivy and finished with fresh flowers. 4 Pedestal arrangements carried through the pale pink accents with roses, lisianthus and pale pink anthuriums and finally, the dramatic pew decoration of draped organza and groups of roses and greenery.
The gorgeous Aisle Runner was provided by www.weddingrunner.com (who have kindly allowed us to use their video clip).

31st October 2009, the wedding of one of my closest friends’ Brother John and his lovely new wife Emma.
After the bouquets were decided on, we were given free reign with the decor and well, we took the Halloween theme and worked with it! Autumnal oranges and burgundies, pumpkins by the door, candlelight and a rustic ivy covered arch created an amazing atmosphere in the beautiful St. Patricks Church in Ballyraggat, Co. Kilkenny.
The Bridal bouquet – a hand tied posy of white avalanche roses, snow white mini callas and delicate bouvardia, finished with a soft ruscus collar and tied with luxurious ivory satin and pearled pins.
The 2 bridesmaids carried hand tied posies of deep orange calla lillies, mini gerbera and orange toned roses, with a single luecodendron “Safari Sunset” to add a final flourish! Tied with deep gold satin and finished with pearled pins.
Mother of the Bride carried a corsage attached to her handbag and mother of the groom and sister wore corsages of lisianthus and bouvardia.
The wrought iron candleabra and aisle stands were decorated with flowing floral arrangements featuring chicco palms, phsyalis (jack o’lanterns), red chillis, burgundy and flame orange chrystanthemums with orange mini gerbera, eucalyptus foliage added texture and scent!
The large wrought iron arch was finished simply with abundant natural ivy and we created a simple arrangement of candles and pine cones in the reception area. Unity candle arrangements reflected the colour themes of the day!
At the entrance of the church, as it was Halloween, pumpkins carved with John & Emma’s initials were the final surpise of the day!
