RUTH DONOGHUE-EVANS, MIMI FLEUR www.mimifleur.co.uk Ceiling statements… If you want your venue styling to stand out, be sure to include some eye-catching floral ceiling statements. We love installing these arrangements. You can include clouds of dried flowers, bunches of grasses, garlands of fresh or dried hops, seasonal branches, or classical greenery like moody ivy, scented eucalyptus, and minimal vines. For a more boho look, suspend potted plants in cradles that might include textured succulents and lacey ferns, giving a home-from-home vibe. These plants can either be hired in or bought and then given as post-wedding gifts, which is an easy way to find a wedding budget saving. At Mimi Fleur, we love being given a brief to go big and bold and to create a ‘romantic floral en-masse’, venue permitting. Depending on the time of the year, couples can go wildly colourful or include elegant dripping roses or upside-down single tulip stems. Floral hanging installations transform the guests’ focal point and make for those strike-a-pose photo opportunities. Aerial focal points to consider include above the ceremony, top table and table plan but also above the dance floor for that perfect first dance.
