Your North West Wedding- February / March 2021 (Issue 66)

How to decorate your wedding venue Styled t perfection ECO-LUXE Sustainably embracing nature. “Minimise the use of plastic and instead use natural bio- degradable paper or wood for things such as place cards, table plans and welcome signs.” – Bethany from Flowers by Jemma Holmes. Add a touch of gold to your tables, flowers and stationery to create a luxurious look. It’s also worth using lots of different flowers in your centrepieces and bouquet but in the same colours. Mixing lower-cost options with more expensive versions like orchids can help reduce the overall price. “Opt for British grown seasonal flowers and use a florist who grows their own crops or can source local blooms. Choose foam-free installations and table pieces. Having a table decorated with seasonal single stems can fill an area with a sweet scent while sticking to a budget.” – Sam Clark from Free Range Floristry. “Incorporate foliage into your bouquet and around the venue to create a gorgeous fresh and just picked feel. Laid foliage and flowers also works great on the top table. Finish with wooden logs, jam jars and candles to create a romantic look.” – Bethany Bryne from Flowers by Jemma Holmes. “Hiring your centrepieces means they can be re-used over and over again, making them sustainable.” – Donna Brown from Pure Elegance Weddings & Events. www.kirs tenplatt.co.uk and www.pureeleganceevents.co.uk W hen it comes to decorating your wedding venue, the options are endless.
