Let your dreams bloom

Flowers have always been an integral part of wedding celebrations, going back as far as the earliest days of civilisation. Of course things have changed slightly since then; we no longer feel obliged to include a bulb of garlic in a bouquet to ward off evil spirits! The tradition lives on because the appeal of natural beauty is timeless, plus the indulgence of surrounding ourselves with flowers is kept to the most special of celebrations…

The invitation

Flowers are so intrinsically linked with weddings that they’re a popular choice for our bespoke invitations. Not only this but laser-cut petals and leaves stand out beautifully, the effect is immediate as soon as the envelope is opened, creating just the right impact on guests.

A number of our wedding stationery collections are inspired by nature, but a twist on the traditional is our botanical collection. Its tangled weave of blooms and vines are picked out in navy blue. The laser-cut finish stands out beautifully and it shows that a floral theme doesn’t have to be pink, far from it!

The decor

Flowers make beautiful decorations; they can transform your venue into something magical.

Using alternatives to real flowers allows you to maximise creativity. We’ve worked on walls made entirely from flowers; the effect is stunning plus there’s no wilting to worry about…They make a wonderful, lasting memento of the day too. Laser cut leaves are particularly popular right now as well, attach to a gold rail and you have a stunning installation for either a table plan or photobooth signage!

The bouquet

The one thing that every bride and bridesmaid is expected to have is a bouquet. It’s a lovely part of the day and whatever the bridal party decide to wear, the flowers they carry stand them apart from everyone else. While the tradition of carrying a bouquet seems here to stay, there are some gorgeous alternatives to live flowers. Button and bead bouquets are increasing in popularity and we’ve created some laser-cut creations of our own…

One of our favourite non-traditional bouquets is this one. The creativity is fabulous and the effect, stunning.

The tables

We absolutely love designing and creating table stationery. The possibilities are endless and it’s where we can really make guests feel special by personalising place settings, providing beautiful menus, favour boxes, as well as centre-pieces.
