The Flower atmosphere

we got engaged in New York and chose to combine elements of the city with art deco styling. We wanted a fun and lighthearted day, touched with the glitz of the Great Gatsby. It was a bright day and we held the ceremony outside, with the stunning views from the Saddle worth Hotel as our backdrop. Inside the reception room had a darker, more sophisticated feel with black chairs and linen which matched our glamorous theme. We chose to compliment this with dusky pink and peach.

The look
As soon as I tried on one of lan Stuart’s dresses I knew he was the designer for me. I love the antique coloring and the variety and materials used to make my gown. It was rushed and gathered, with Chantilly lace pooled at the bottom of create a train. My six bridesmaids wore different style dresses in peach, gold and champagne hues which tied in beautifully with my gown. They each wore a wrist corsage made from pearl bracelets, lace and vintage brooches.

The details
our reception room was large with high ceilings so we ensured our table centers varied in height to add interest. Our florist used pastel roses mixed with dark green foliage to create a vintage color palette. To add texture and variety to the arrangements, I also asked her to incorporate lace, pearls and brooches. Each table was named after a famous New York landmark and our cake was modelled after the empire State Building and covered in white chocolate and edible lace and pearls.

My favorite moment
it was wonderful spending a relaxed morning of the wedding getting ready with mu mum and bridesmaids.

My tips for brides to be
Invite only who you want to invite and don’t succumb to family pressures. We wanted our friends there which meant we had to cut back on family numbers. As they say, friends are the family you choose and they really made our day special.
Save money by swapping maids bouquets for wrist corsages.

Feeling rosy
Filipa carried a classic bouquet of roses in a vintage color palette, these included “Sahara Quicksand” Amnesia, green hydrangeas. The bouquet was finished with lace, pearls and netting. The table center featured the same rose, with the addition of “Eden” spray roses and elegant cream stock.
