The Number One Flower Design Wedding Supper Club March 2010 Photographs by Jonny Draper

Welcome to Number One South Beach and our very special Wedding Supper Club designed to inspire, excite & enthuse our lovely Flower Design Bridal couples for 2010 & 2011We invited all of our Brides & Grooms, their Mums & Bridesmaids to come along for a totally fabulous evening of food, flowers, Champagne and everything bridal, this is an evening where talking about weddings is absolutely top of the agenda.

The entire evening was filmed by "The Fenton Experience" all our brides will be sent a copy over the next few days even if you couldn't be there, you still won't miss out.

We invited Claire from Clarins in JR Taylor to come along to help our girls with their skin care regimes and how to create a very natural look for the "Big Day"
Hair Dresser Simon Parsons was creating "hair ups" to die for on our lovely models
Everyone had an opportunity to chat & sip Champagne
Before we moved into the dining room, where evryone was presented with a corsage or buttonhole
I welcomed everyone
And introduced our "Makeover" models, Olivia, Claire, Sarah & Ben Then we got down to some serious wedding bouquet designing
Which everyone seemed to enjoy
This is one of our gorgeous brides Isobelle having a little practise with my Phalaenopsis design
We made lots of different styles of wedding bouquets and all the ladies had an opportunity of test driving them




Our fabulous models showed them all around the room
During the evening we enjoyed excellent presentations from Jill from Colour Me Beautiful, Janet Fenton from The Fenton Experience, Jill from Dreamcatcher Bridal and the most brilliant presentation by Jonny Draper about how to select and then how to make the most of your photographer on the day (I'm going to do seperate posts on these subjects because they were so thoroughly good they deserve more space and more respect)

We played around with some wrist corsages and buttonholes

Throughout the evening our guests enjoyed a delicious five course dinner

The amazingly talented and very special wedding singer Howard Wing entertained everyone, he also shared with us some fantastic tips for how to go about finding and booking the very best entertainment for your wedding.

I made a church pedestal and a table design The very lovely Katie from The Little House of Cup Cakes provided a fabulous wedding cake the entirety of which was enjoyed by us all with coffee
Then the finale of the evening
The exquisite gowns were provided by the very best wedding dress shop Dreamcatcher Bridal In Kirkham
The models entered the room to massive applause and a shower of fresh fragrant rose petal confetti
Sarah is one of our Brides for this May and Ben is the manager of Rowley's Catering, they were both quite perfect.
Sarah was wearing my all time favourite designer Suzanne Neville and Ben's suit was also provided by DreamCatcher
Olivia was the Bridesmaid and I adored the shade of her gown with her skin tone, perfect choice!


A huge thankyou to everyone involved and most particularly Jonny Draper for these fabulous images.
Until next time my friends....
