Pennyhill Park wedding with pretty Lilac & Plums
I really enjoyed working on this lovely wedding at Pennyhill Park last summer and just had to share them now that I finally have a chance to. Vikki and Salvadore were a lovely couple to work with and the beautiful colour scheme, an unusual departure from the ivory and blush that is so popular at the moment, was the icing on the cake!
For her bouquet Vikki opted for a scented bouquet of ivory peonies, lilac Pacific Blue and Memory Lane roses, lilac and deep plum scented stocks and dainty deep purple lisianthus. The bridesmaids carried matching bouquets which looked amazing against their deep plum dresses, and the men wore colourful buttonholes of dusky lilac Memory Lane roses, with deep purple lisianthus detail.
The wedding ceremony took place at St Mary’s Church in Eversely, a very pretty and decorative church which didn’t need much floral decoration on the day. So we dressed this simply with an impressive pedestal centrepiece near the ceremony area, and this looked just perfect for the cosy church.
For their wedding reception, the couple arrived in style at Pennyhill Park, where guests enjoyed a champagne reception on beautiful summer day. The wedding breakfast at Pennyhill Park was held in the Balmoral Suite, which was dressed with pretty floral displays in a mix of tall and low vases. For the tall displays, needed to add much needed impact in the tall ceilinged large room, we used tall silver vases, the silver always being a good choice for the cool lilacs and dusky pink shades. We used a mix of textural hydrangeas, ivory peonies, scented lilac and plum stocks, lilac and dusky pink roses, and ivory and deep purple lisianthus just here and there. The same mix was used to create matching low rose bowl centrepieces, to give guests more to discover as they walk into the room. And finally, the top table was dressed with a series of bridesmaids bouquets and extra small posies of flowers. Throughout, we then added plenty of vintage silver mercury glass votives to echo the tall silver vases and silver rose bowls.
