Your North West Wedding - Feb/Mar 2020 (Issue 60)

FLOWERS 69 VENUE STYLING Try placing tea lights inside Mason jars, it’s a simple, yet effective way, of transforming any space into a magical woodland. BARN Bunting is a fun way of incorporate your chosen theme, and it can even be personalised to include your names or initials. Fairylights can be wrapped around the barn’s wooden pillars. Paper lanterns come in various colours and shapes and can be placed anywhere. 1,000 origami cranes come from an ancient Japanese legend that promises anyone who folds them will be granted a wish by the gods. This tradition can be incorporated into your table numbers, ceiling decorations or even used as a table plan. THE GREAT OUTDOORS Create an unusual focal point with floating flowers. Wrap string around a vase and attach it to a nearby tree to create a stunning backdrop for your photographs. Colourful archways look great, especially at an al fresco wedding and they can be embellished with blooms or ribbons. Pompoms are bright and bold and work particularly well in outdoor spaces.
