Your South Wales Wedding - September/October 2020 (Issue 75)

BRIGHT AND BOLD Make a statement. 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. “Bright and bold blooms work particularly well at spring or summer weddings. Opt for yellows, blues and purples. Try and incorporate seasonal blooms where possible accompanied by beautiful foliage.” – Allison from Allison at The Flower Garden. “Focus on colour, brightness and bringing the outdoors inside. My favourite way of doing this is through summer-themed accessories. Look for patterned table runners, these are something you rarely see, but are impactful and easy to make.” – Beth from Megan & Claude.
