An Essex Wedding - Jan/Feb 2020 (Issue 90)

BOHEMIAN DREAMS Bohemain: noun an unconventional person, a free spirit “Ribbons are a relatively inexpensive way to create a whimsical look. We hang them from a distressed frame and attach fresh stems or glass test tubes holding flowers for an amazing backdrop.” – Hayley Clements, Starry Eyed Weddings “Eucalyptus and amaranthus garlands, glass bud vases, wildflowers and succulents surrounded by candlelight would set the scene perfectly. Opt for earthy finishing touches such as marble or agate stones as place settings.” – Stephanie York, Monet Events “Watch out for plenty of pampas grass and macramé elements for 2020 boho-style weddings.” – Victoria Makepeace, Simply Stunning Flowers CONTACT OUR EXPERTS Emma Fews | Elf Occasions | elfoccasions.co.uk, Gemma Waters | Fairytale Finishes | fairytale-finishes.co.uk Stephanie York | Monet Events | monetevents.co.uk, Victoria Makepeace | Simply Stunning Flowers | simplystunningflowers.co.uk Hayley Clements | Starry Eyed Weddings | starryeyedweddings.co.uk , Debbie Davenport | White Lace Events | facebook.com/whitelaceevent1 “Vintage rugs and props enhance this look and you could also consider natural linens for your table runners and napkins.” – Stephanie York, Monet Events fairytale-finishes.co.uk starryeyedweddings.co.uk | thelovefactory.love “Florals should be free-flowing and natural. Opt for hand- tied, cascading designs rather than tight and compact.” – Stephanie York, Monet Events “A generous helping of draped festoon lighting adds intimacy by creating the appearance of a lowered ceiling and a cosier atmosphere.” – Hayley Clements, Starry Eyed Weddings “The sky is the limit with this theme. Try to channel your artistic side and don’t be scared to mix and match styles. Lots of greenery and fairylights will give a laid-back feel.” – Debbie Davenport, White Lace Events 77 VENUE STYLING
