The ‘Alice’ bouquet’s focal flowers are Avalanche and Aqua roses . The Bridal Spirea , Genista and Euphorbia Robbiae, which I grow myself , are soft ,flowing flowers . Blue muscari , a spring flower , allows the pink to shine and would be perfect to coordinate with a bridesmaids dress in the same blue . Muscari is a woodland flower which I also grow in my garden .

It is a light and delicate design which complemented the bride’s fairytale lace dress.

The base structure is made of coils of twine covered wire. More coils are inserted into the main design .

A beautiful and different bouquet

Thought I would show you a few atmospheric images of the forest. It was such a beautifull day. Sun was shining and many shadows and dappled sunshine . Which gave Claire a few problems , but I loved it . There is something about a forest. Its ethereal. Definition of ethereal is . ” extremely delicate and light in a way that seems not to be of this world” Harry’s video really captures the atmosphere of the forest .
