Your London Wedding - Nov/Dec 2019 (Issue 68)

SAY IT WITH COLOUR Be it bold and beautiful or nice and neutral, we’ve asked London’s florists for their take on the latest trends for any and every colour scheme Table centrepieces are on the move, says Blooming Haus’ floral engineers, Michael Dariane and Michal J Kowalski (bloominghaus.com) . Simple and non-restrictive will be the order of the day, creating a sense of space and a more natural flow. Additionally, couples will seek to create more off-table statement arrangements such as floral sculptures, floral arches and suspended installations to wow their guests. Bright arrangements and bold tablecloths are the perfect pairing – as this beauty from Pinstripes and Peonies (pinstripesandpeonies.com) shows. This jewel bouquet with David Austin roses from Chelsea-based The Real Flower Co (realflowers.co.uk ) is all things bright and beautiful. & Bold red and yellow hues set against deep red and green foliage make this display of red gladioli, yellow sunflowers and euphorbia by TBR Floral Design (tbrfloraldesign.co.uk ) stand out from the crowd. BOLD BRIGHT “ “The trend for block colours continues and lots of couples are more open to embracing some fun ideas. We’ve had multiple requests for clouds of painted pink gypsophila and we think that we’ll see painted flowers all the way through into 2020 with fun and playful brides asking for mixtures of bright high contrasting palettes.” – Sarah Loughrey-Jennings, hidinginthecity.com FLOWERS 59
