"Forget Me Not Blue" Luscious Wedding at St Annes Parish Church & The Grand Hotel

This wedding is quite simply "Glorious" the flowers were just divine, Roses, Peonies, Delphinium, Hydrangeas & Sweet Peas, so an early start with the vans packed to capacity.


There is an art form attached to loading vans, our drivers take an immense pride in their loading ability, which ensures, speedy delivery and damage free design, so I thought I'd share their talent with you all.

The boys were rehearsing their duties, and the pew ends were dressed with nosegays of fresh flowers

In the porch area we arranged simple fresh flowers in the corners, lit some candles and sprinkled rose petals
Then to our lovely bride Helena to deliver some fresh Red Roses "Grand Prix" from her very gorgeous Groom
