Hello!
First post here, hope someone can help.
I am over a year into planning for my August 2018 wedding. We are getting married in a little Victorian re-styled Norman CoE church near our home. It's a low budget wedding, a lot of it is DIY but I am having some florist flowers, but we don't have any budget left for church flowers. I really would like some flowers in the church (and the moon on a stick). In the church we are DIY'ing pew ends (jars of baby's breath). Unfortunately the regular church flower arranger is on holiday when we get married so we are scuppered there. I think we might be able to stretch to an altar arrangement from the florist. I would really like some flowers over the church doors and the lych gate as doorways are such great photo locations.
Here's some examples: https://www.pinterest.co.uk/search/pins/?rs=ac&len=2&q=church%20arch%20flowers&eq=church%20arch&etslf=NaN&term_meta[]=church%7Cautocomplete%7Cundefined&term_meta[]=arch%7Cautocomplete%7Cundefined&term_meta[]=flowers%7Cautocomplete%7Cundefined
I don't mind what kind of flowers we have at the church, and I would be happy with plenty of foliage and white / cream / ivory blooms as I think that's nice in a church setting (loads of colour at the reception venue though!)
Does anyone know of any obvious way to dress the doorways in a tasteful way for not much money?!
And in case you are wondering, no I don't have any experienced/skilled flower arrangers prepared to help me with this, but I do have some kind and lovely friends who will do their best!
Thanks in advance for your help!
