Laura & Jon's wedding, Elms Barns, 22nd January

A really good friend asked if I could do her flowers for a winter wedding at Elms Barns http://www.elmsbarnweddings.co.uk/on the border of Norfolk & Suffolk. The venue take care of the barn decorations leaving me to concentrate on the bouquets and buttonholes.

Laura and Jon had chosen a white and green theme for the wedding flowers, and were keen to include twigs in the designs to reflect the time of the year. Laura wished for different tones and textures in the bouquets but to also keep them quite simple. It was a great opportunity to be creative and choose different yet complementary flowers to fit in with the scheme. Jess the bridesmaid was 7 months pregnant so her bouquet was bigger than a normal bridesmaid's.
