We had an audience of inquisitive cows while setting up the ever-popular rice pails for the wedding ceremony at the Stone Circle on Saturday. These are taken to the marquee along with all the guests on a tractor and trailer after the Ceremony so have a double life. ❤️

Swipe to see the transformation from a classic green and white meadow scene in church framing the marriage ceremony, into a colourful backdrop in the marquee for the speeches and cake-cutting. All done quietly whilst the newly weds were having their photos taken and greeting their guests by adding a few colourful stems to the original arrangements.

A few stills of yesterday's wedding flowers.
They were blessed with lovely summer weather and the joyful sound of the ancient church bells announcing their marriage right across Holford's combes here in the Quantock Hills.

Lectern ready for the Easter service tomorrow in our country church. No foam, so no microplatics; no imports, so no flower miles.

A bouquet made for a November Bride in 2019.
We obviously didn't have so much wind and rain that Autumn as we've had this year as everything in it was grown here in Somerset.
The important thing for weddings that are early or late in the year, is not to be too prescriptive in your Brief to the florist. Leave it fairly open so that you can have the very best of what is available. This Bride wanted warm, romantic Autumnal shades in a loose slightly cascading bouquet. A perfect Brief for November.
