White Wedding

A beautiful white wedding in the Savernake Forest with the reception taking place in a stunning marquee in front of Rockley Manor.

Buckets full of frothy white blooms are conditioned in The Barn.

Flowers at The Church.

Full blown white Paeonies and heavily scented Norma Jean Roses featured in the Bride’s Bouquet.

Foliage garlands spiralled the marquee poles while Olive trees and long wooden boxes stuffed with Hydrangeas, Peonies, Roses and Spirea dressed the tables.

...and then it was all over, so we headed back to the venue with a trailer to scoop up those lovely Olive Trees.

A Bowl of Posies

These posies were quickly popped into an old bowl to keep fresh awaiting collection and just seemed to work.

MOVING ON

After 8 happy years at Cobbs Farm Shop, I am hitching up my shepherds hut and moving on.

During my time here, the flower shop has “blossomed” from a borrowed Gipsy Caravan and modest display of flowers and plants to its current Shepherd’s Hut, 2 sheds, canopies and lots of display structures encroaching further and further into the Cobbs car park!!

The time is right for a change of direction and my new flower shop will open in The Barn at Garden Art on Friday May 6 as part of the initial stage of an exciting project to create a collective of artisan retailers and craftspeople at Barrs Yard.  My style of floristry and planting will sit very happily alongside the beautiful garden items that Travers stocks at his yard and we are all very excited by this new collaboration.

This move represents a big and challenging jump for me and I am particularly delighted by the prospect of no more winters out in the cold!

I hope you will visit me at Barrs Yard so I can show you around.
