Star of the Sea

On 29th May 2010, Aisling and Albert were married in the Star of the Sea Church in Sandymount, followed by a reception in the gorgeous Brooklodge Hotel. It was the final wedding of my crazy weekend, 3 weddings in 2 days with no Lorraine (who was busy enjoying the last day of her holidays in Peurto Rico!)

Aisling and her mum first met with me back in Autumn 2009 and we had our meeting with a cup of tea at my kitchen table! The one request Aisling had was that Lily of the Valley featured in her own bouquet. So, from there we decided on the bridal bouquet of white roses, heavenly scented lily of the valley and delicate mini white calla lillies.

The three bridesmaids carried simple posies of white calla lillies finished with ivory organza and the 3 flowergirls carried posies of white hydrangea and purple freesia.

Aisling and her mum fell in love with the idea of using blue Hydrangea in the church decor, and we designed 4 pedestal arrangements, 2 larger arrangement for the base of the aisle, 2 medium for the Rear alter using hydrangea and delphinium and and an arrangement for the alter into which we placed the unity candles (supplied by Theresa Kelly and now available through RosieDays).

The pew ends were dressed simply with a large Hydrangea bloom, alternating white and blue and finally, 2 bay trees guarded the front entrance.

Magic Mum Ball 2009

Magic Mum Ball 2009 was held in the Radisson SAS in Athlone.
I was charged with the floral design for the room and had a great time!

Tall vases were filled with hydrangea and avalanche roses with draping amaranthus, surrounded by tea lights, glass votives held single avalanche roses, opened beautifully and placed around candelabra. I also decorated individual wrought iron stands with floral rings mirroring the flowers used in the ball room to create a break between the dining area and the bar, the candles were lit for extra effect!
