I've been meaning to post photos for a while now because I am so chuffed with how things turned out!
We didn't have a definite colour scheme from the outset. I wanted pink for the BMs dresses for a summer wedding because I wanted a soft, romantic look. My OH didn't want to wear pink, and wanted blue instead.
We didn't have a lot of money in the budget for flowers, but still wanted fresh flowers (I just love the smell of fresh flowers).
I love gypsophila, and saw some great pics of pew ends on the internet, and decided I must have them, it's a nice way of decorating the ceremony room:
We bought a bunch of gypsophila from the local market stall, some white ribbon, and made these pew ends ourselves.
For the centrepieces, we kept it simple by going for lilies. We bought these from the market stall earlier in the week and put them in water so they would open in time for the wedding:
The wedding breakfast was taking place in the orangery so lots of natural light and it didn't need a lot of decorating. Here's a view of the room:
The 'vases' are actually carafes from Ikea. Originally £1 each but at the time we bought them, they had increased in price by 50% to £1.50.
