Christmas wreaths and arrangements

All our door wreaths and table arrangements are made using a wide selection of winter foliages, berries and fruits. Below are some of our most popular designs. We also make wreaths to your own choice of content. Hurry though, this coming weekend will be very busy and we need your order as soon as possible!


Woodland






















A contemporary take on our classic woodland themed wreaths. Swirls of dogwood are overlaid with Ilex berries, cinnamon bundles, dried apple slices and strictum cones. The approximate diameter is 12" and the price is £20.00.


Nordic Winter

Along with scented blue spruce and holly this door wreath features silvery grey cones, dried aple slices and Ilex berries. Available in standard at £22.50 and large at £30.00.


Table arrangement

Filled with sumptuous rich red Naomi roses and glossy green foliages along with mini apples and dried apple slices, this contemporary arrangement would make an ideal table centre or gift. An alternative is to include vibrant green orchids instead of the roses. From £25.00


Woodland


An abundance of cones, mini apples and Ilex berries nestle amongst fragrant blue spruce in this large door wreath. £30.00


Winter Wonderland

A classic table centre with frosty looking flowers and foliages, shimmer candle and blue spruce. Available as shown or with the addition of large creamy white roses. From £25.00


Winter Wonderland

This large heart is filled with winter foliages and cones in cool blues, greys and white, finished with silver snowflakes. Also available in 'Woodland' in rich reds and greens. Large white or red roses can be added for a luxurious alternative door decoration. From £37.50


Woodland

We love the boiled wool bow on this door wreath. It complements the colours and textures of the Christmas greens and cones perfectly. £25.00 and £30.00

Flower Trends for 2013

Dahlias
These flowers are making a big comeback and are a versatile flower which will suit retro style bouquets as well as smart table centres and feature arrangements. Seasonal in late summer and autumn, look out for them next year in most colours from pale pastels to strong reds, oranges and purples.


Mis-match
Gone is the idea that everything floral has to match across all aspects of the wedding. Now bridesmaids may be in different colour dresses with varying colours of flowers. Table centres can be of 2 – 3 different styles, or use an eclectic mix of containers each filled with a different type of flower. Flowers for the hair are designed to suit each bridesmaid's individual hairstyle, all reflecting more relaxed approach to styling with flowers.


Mini Succulents
Echeveria and Sempervivum make a quirky addition to your bridal bouquet, are great for buttonholes and provide a talking point for table arrangements. What's more they last and last. Look for them in all colours from shades of pink and turquoise to deep maroon and purply black.


Seasonal Flowers
Roses are still the most popular choice for wedding flowers and are available all year round. However, seasonal flowers are featuring more strongly giving lots of scope for individual designs which when looking back at the photographs capture the essence of the season you got married.


Yellow
Whether sunflower bright or pastel primrose, yellow flowers will start to feature. Whilst yellow isn't a colour everyone can wear, it is a happy, upbeat and bright flower to include in your theme.
